hahaha interesting thread. been reading the v1 thread here and there
btw, i'm from imu, 4th sem

imu students have too much free time

sad... my cvs facts have all gone out the window
1. mild MI?
2. no idea what's the procedure's name but i think it's to see if the growth is liquid filled or a mass? just guessing here. looks like it's some cystic growth on the head. ahahahaha
3. amputation of the feet, just below the toes? no idea what's the proper name. common indications would be gangrenous toes or massive ulceration of the toes (diabetes?)
4. placenta

12 hours of lectures? i only had to spend 10 hours in uni this week for lectures, pbls and clinical sessions. not that i'm ecstatic about my free time.. seems like a waste that we're paying so much but getting so little in return.

hahaha... just spent 2 weeks getting in people's way during my electives. and i'll be doing more of that in the near future

ooo.. so many people graduating in 2013?
if everything goes well, i should be graduating at the end of 2013 too

and yes, it's also my plan to at least become a specialist before i come back here.

i'm still thinking of aus or uk. haven't decided.

i know the SET training in aus requires you to get a pr. and i think it's always best to get a pr as early as possible. i know some applications can take months (esp in victoria) and a lot of headache. i heard its easier to get pr status in other states
and SET application is really tough i heard. very competitive
not quite sure about their physician training though.

as for uk, i think it's even harder for us international students to get into a specialty training there right? unless your work is really outstanding

maybe the medical exams are getting more lenient?
hahahahhahahaa... i'll probably get bricked by most of my batchmates.

going to med school in US or studying medicine here?
if you're doing medicine here, here's a useful link:

if you're planning to study medicine in the US, there was a thread about it in this forum before
