UM, UKM, USM

IMU

Care to experience something new -UTAR, Masterskill and Segi.

Unknown but may surprise on the upside. Not for the fainthearted.

IMU or Monash if got cash.
Can try UTAR or SEGI or UCSI if you wanna TRY.
UM if you're good enough.

Be their 'lab mouse'?
If their fees are cheap, facilities adequate and the academic staff are highly competent, why not?

But currently only 2 schools -UKM & UM, are recognized outside Malaysia.

that is not accurate.........

pmc degree is recognised in ireland....(but not in uk/spore)

monash msia is recognised in oz......(but not in uk/spore)

imu local is recognised in sri langka........

and um/ukm is recognised only by spore, outside msia........

If you start this year or next and five years down the road when you qualify, the "better ones" will probably secure more recognition overseas and the likely ones looks like Monash and maybe UCSI.

ucsi?..........whatever gave you that idea.....!

From those classified under the second tier, I think UCSI would have a better chance, no?

UCSI's first batch just convo today.

wonder how will they fare in the real world.

better chance in what?..........

if you mean recognition by the developed OECD world, ucsi's chances is the same as for all the other homegrown private med schools......

zero.........

What are the factors that makes you think so?

Zero? Pardon my ignorant, but whatever gave you that idea?

Honestly, i just can't understand why some lowyat forumners always think that UCSI is superior than other private medical schools.

What are the factors that makes you NOT understand why some lowyat forumners always think that UCSI is superior than other private medical schools?
Or it is also your gut feelings only?

because not all forummers are well to do enough like you to go to group of eight unis/ivy league/top unis in UK?

if u r speaking in the context of really good malaysian medical schools, i can only think of imu and monash, or maybe manipal.

ucsi would be right behind them and certainly much more ahead than other medical schools which had just started only these few years.

and between those 5 choices, the most affordable would certainly be ucsi.

their first batch had just come out to work, compared to others who had already have graduates, time would tell whether they are reli good or bad.

totally agree, especially when their first batch just had their convo last week. It just doesnt make sense.

wgy is in nus..........

and this is nothing to do with the cost of the course........but the quality of the uni........

put it another way.........assuming money is not an issue........can you get in?..........

ie what is the selection criteria of that med school.........

what i meant was that many other private medical schools in malaysia started off about the same time as UCSI, and some even earlier, examples would be Penang Medical College, AIMST, Royal College of medicine perak, Allianze College of Medical sciences, CUCMS and Management and Science University, but why do you think UCSI is better?

And i'm not well to do, in fact i wanted to study in IMU twinning programme, but my parents just couldn't afford it.
