Is there anyone that are retaking spm for medicine? I am wondering cause i got one subject that is one grade lower that the basic requirement which is ©.

if you can't even get 5 b's in spm, which is so easy, considering 10,000 students gets straight a's, you should NOT consider medicine.........

But the requirement only came out after 91 has graduated what about the people that graduated before that how can you set the entry requirement base on spm and pre-u.It doesn't make sense.Snice pre-u student which has met the entry requirement has surely advanced a lot from thier spm standard level.

getting 5b in SPM is much more easier than getting the grades needed for entry requirements in medicine.

Yah,Let say i am doing Stpm and i get B for all Bio Chem and Physic But i didn't get b for one of the subject in spm that means i can't study for medicine? that makes no sense right?

makes perfect sense........

you should NOT be able to enter medicine with only b's in stpm......you cannot, into ipta.......but new upstart med schools and some foreign mede schools takes people as long as they can pay, even with some c's.....

nobody without straight a's in spm/stpm/matrik should be allowed to do medicine........but in bolehland (some calls it bodohland), lots of people with very mediocre results and lots of money gets in....

try get into spore/uk/oz med school......and you will know what i mean..........that where REAL selection of med students take place.....

I choose bbb cause it's the minimum entry requirement . I know that they'll only let the select the few best to study medicine.But as far i know some pre-u student are taking only like 3 subject bio chem and maths and they want to get into med isn't it a little funny.And I know a lot of them didn't get straight A during spm but yah minimum all b so does that means that thier dream are ruin? and they're wasting thier money?Other than med what else can you do with just chem bio and maths? nursing? haha..

If the 3 subjects are AAA then there is nothing wrong with it. AAA is better than BBBB.


AND, if they can't even get b in SPM, they shouldn't dream of doing medicine in the first place.

Yes, if you cant get B in SPM, then medicine should not be your choice.

And students getting A in SPM is increasing sharply, so the requirements set are getting useless in this land.

the reason for the new mmc requirement is because many students enter med school from spm.....

sure, they do some kind of 'foundation' for a few months......and they will all pass and be eligible to enter the course.......therefore guidelines based on stpm/matrik/a levels doesn't work as these people have no accredited pru-u........

they should do what the bar council does.....any lawyer who wants to be called to the bar MUST have a recognised pre-u before doing their degree......

this lols!

=3=" counsel me then.. what field can they go to?

With chem, bio and maths, you can go to MANY fields.

Biotechnology, biomedical science, nutrition, food science, biochemistry, so many courses there.

Biotech don't need physic ? What are the job option for people that goes for biochemistry?

other than physics, and some engineering, you do not need physics to enter most courses in uni......

and you have the entire range of arts/humanities courses you can do as well........

and finally, teach......

Job options are a lot.

Teaching is a good option instead.

Perhaps, go for research field.


Biochemist Technician
Entomologist
Laboratory Assistant
Nutritionist
Pharmaceutical Research Assistant
Researcher
Teacher / Professor
Toxicologis

Do a search in this forum and google it up.

Many info there.

Oh kay~ thanks everyone..

Lol.. You should know the lowyat seniors here are very very defensive on critical courses and what's what with it.

when i eventually need the services of doctors, i want them NOT to be grade c mediocre students with rich parents.....

self preservation.....

=) Everyone is going to die someday.Even if your doctor are all highly qualify i don't think they can make you live to 100 years also.Health from my point of view is like on 50% luck, 50% depend on what you eat what you do.And if anyone notice i didn't mention one word that i am going to venture into medicine.Doctor are always in demand,someday when you're sick and you walk into a hospital with all the doctor busy with thier patient you're going to wish there's more doctor.I am not saying that c grade student deserve to get into med school look at my title carefully it's about changing the result and get into med school not getting into med school with a c grade it's a lot diffrent .
