I'm still deciding between 2 pre-u courses in sunway which is the canadian matriculation(CIMP) and MUFY. I've been told some bad things about CIMP,but don't know how true is that. As for MUFY,the syllabus is rather shallow for those who wish to pursue a science related course or a medicine course (especially for the first year). My brother was a MUFY student who graduated last year and is currently doing medicine in Monash University Sunway campus and has confirmed the above statement. Im stuck between chosing either CIMP or MUFY as i like the 70:30 ratio for CIMP but worried after what ive been told about the problems that are faced by CIMP students.As for MUFY im worried about the shallow syllabus and the fact that MUFY only allows me either to Australia or Malaysia ( Monash University).  can i know the pros and cons for both CIMP and MUFY? |

QUOTE(SunwayU @ May 6 2010, 10:03 AM) Both MUFY and CIMP are considered as a year 12 equivalents, therefore they are of the same level in most cases. If you are looking at a pre-university programme that is in-depth, then it will be A Level instead because this is a year 13 equivalent. May I check with you what are the bad things that you heard about CIMP so that I can help you rectify? You can email it to us at info@sunway.edu.my and we can help clarify further some of the doubts that you have. Thanks for the explanation.  Does this mean that MUFY and CIMP graduates are equally almost at the same level? And can i know what is the difference between foundation and matriculation? Is it true that foundation is lower than matriculation?  About CIMP, i heard from some that the students are not really serious in their studies and its a pre-u course that is taken pretty lightly by many people.. not sure how true is this though as i do not know any CIMP students myself, so do feel free to tell me the truth as i would like to know whether those rumours are true or not  |

QUOTE(SunwayU @ May 7 2010, 03:07 PM) Someone who has MUFY and CIMP are considered as equivalent. They are considered as a Year 12 student. Foundation is an internal programme that is meant for students aiming to go that specific university mainly, whereas a matriculation is governed by a specific government board, therefore it is internationally recognized. Since foundation is an internal programme and everything is internally marked, there will be no benchmark in terms of the quality. However, if you are looking at MUFY, it is Monash University’s foundation, therefore we will be able to know the quality of it. CIMP is a matriculation that focuses on interactive learning with your lecturers. A lot of times, people tend to take it lightly because they consist of 70% course work and only 30% on exams. However, kindly bear in mind that this programme actually trains students to be able to do presentation well, better time management, do assignments/research independently etc. It is just that the system has a different approach, not to be taken lightly. Thanks for the explanation . It has definitely cleared some of the doubts i have about CIMP and MUFY and rumours that i had heard from others about CIMP .  I'm really interested in CIMP and might join this pre-u programme for the next intake! |
