Hi..I'm confused abt taking pharmacy course at Taylors or AIMST.can anybody give some suggestions abt these two universities in terms of their qualities,facilities and etc?thx a lot.

u planned for deg or dip??

degree wor..=)..do u hv any suggestions?

hum unless you plan to go to Cardiff, I think for now AIMST would be a better idea as Taylor's is way too new.

Aimst gt full-accredition for pharm?though aimst pharm exist longer than taylors but jpa send students to taylors for pharm starting from this yr and not aimst.

AIMST campus very nais but very far from town

try IMU!

I'm sorry but there're jpa students who're studying in aimst as well.

Ying Xian 91..I saw ur treads somewhere in this forum..I thought u were deciding which mpharm program to pursue? But why ended up in bpharm ucsi?

thanks for the info.

Lecturers in Taylors should be better as options are more in KL though it could be pretty competitive.

Generally, colleges(those better ones) in KL provide much better programmes compared with those out of town.

The pioneer batches in AIMST could be good but the fact is most of the contract lecturers left at the expiry of the contract and its not easy to get good replacement as its way out of town.

Thx for d opinions.I personally prefer Taylors more since i hv more confidence with d lecturers thr. however AIMST is accreditated by mqa and its far cheaper(but its too far from my hometown as well )..while Taylors B.pharm prog is not yet accreditatated..i was wondering whether d graduates r eligible for registration with Pharmacy Board of Malaysia?

Like a forumer here mentioned, check out IMU. If you want an oversea degree, you can also check out Monash.

I thought JPA sends the students to UCSI for Pharmacy course ? Lol.

Added on August 3, 2011, 4:11 pmIf you want to study locally, I would recommend you to choose AIMST.

If you want to go to oversea, Cardiff is a good choice.

No problems with accreditation. All approved courses will be accredited, the fact is for some of them, the first batch of graduates are not out yet.

If you want to consider more reputable universities, consider Monash, Nottingham and IMU for pharmacy.

The academic entry requirements for Pharmacy is most stringent in Monash (ATAR 92), next is Nottingham.

Nah Monash's entry requirement drop a lot for a levels. BBB can enter now.

Monash is not in my list since its intake is next year while Nottingham is too expensive and im not sure whether i wanna enrol in twinning prog anot..
but im curious abt d quality of pharm prog at AIMST.

Well, last sem it was ATAR 92 for SAM students, coupled with a distinction in English.

I think Monash's Pharmacy is more expensive than Nottingham. Pharmacy programmes in Monash and Nottingham are NOT twinning programme, unlike Taylors. You do not have to go overseas (Australia/UK) to complete the programme if you do not wish to and you'll still graduate with degrees from them.

You don't have to go overseas for Taylor's as well. Only difference if you go to Cardiff, you get a Cardiff MPharm and if you stay in Taylor's, you get a Taylor's BPharm.
