besides mahsa,segi and imu, any other private university in malaysia provide dentistry course?I want study at local....
If only mahsa and segi,which uni should i choose?
hope to get feedback about the lecturer quality,study environment,accomodation and others...
i hope any dentistry senior esp mahsa and segi can give me some opinion~thanks~

You do know that there are going to be a lot of dentists coming out soon. at the moment the current govt service is barely accomodating the sudden influx of dental officers, with lots of compromise here and there.

if you must insist.
hope you realize there are so many other private unis that offer dentistry like

AIMST
PIDC
IMU
MMMC

and sudden out-of-the-blue universities like QIUP and UCSA have listed dentistry as a future offered course.

why choose only MAHSA or SEGi ? their charges are even higher than that of AIMST, PIDC, MMMC and no one has given any good feedback about MAHSA/SEGi in this forum or anywhere else.

Keep your options open. Unless you insist on staying within the Klang Valley area

Aimst would be, slightly better. Their dentistry faculty is good.

Mahsa, from my search in LYN and google, shows some not so positive response.

KACHING KACHING. PROFITTTTT.
Education is a business commodity I guess.

consider AIMST? i heard AIMST have the best facilities for dentistry course

why dun choose IMU? IMU will be more professional then mahsa and segi. No offence for saying this

But IMU you will get bombarded by the fees,right? No doubt in terms of its quality , IMU will definitely be the best~ at least in Msia. But how many of us who aspire to become a dentist can afford that? And I heard Aimst is not so so bad ....

RM 500k... the only university in Malaysia that has fees for dentistry higher than medicine. When I asked IMU, they said it's because their facilities are very advanced and you don't share equipment.. every student one dental chair

advanced chairs still contain the very basic core function. students won't completely utilize whatever 'advanced' items their chairs can offer.

i believe that every student exclusively allocated an advanced chair is a non-issue here because they would still have set sessions by which they work on patients. it makes no difference if a few students are allocated a chair but having different time slots of usage.

it's full ady now~u want study dentistry at mahsa?

so did u apply?i didnt apply.

i m going to study dentistry in mahsa for this sept intake~
u want study dentistry also?

Yea, i'm not an aimst dental student but no doubt..aimst has the best dental facilities among private universities...however, their management need to be improved as i heard a lot of scandals about their financial problems that voiced out by the PKR...however, for the quality of pharm n medicine i'm not too sure abt it...

if u really wanna get a QUALITY Dentistry and if u do have $$, go for IMU or MMMC. in my own opinion, these 2 are the best options.

Then, SeGI is NOT PREFERABLE.

please do elaborate on this quality you speak of ?

OMG? WHY?

the professors or the doctors are much more professional and much more experience compare with SeGi. how long does this programme available in SeGi? SeGi cost RM 306k and in local, but MMMC offer students is 2 yrs local 3 yrs oversea (India).

U can compare urself.

Besides, everybody know about Segi passing rate is really really so low. "u can simply pass the subjects without any readings" (exaggerate / overstate way of talking).

The passing mark in SEGi is very low?? U mean the dental subjects like the anatomy or the subjects from the other courses?

do you know this for a fact because you study dentistry there?

Wowowo... Wait minute, ure saying segi's teacher are not professionals? If ure not a student in segi's dentistry faculty I suggest u come here to experience before u accuse Segi of being lousy. And there is no such thing as low passing rate in exam. We need to study like crazy to pass. Other than that, the lecturers here are helpful and not cocky.

As for the no posts from Segi students, it's because there is no time to search all these forum and comment bout how is the dental course offered, not because it's lousy.

If I would give advice on the first post, u can do research bout all the uni offering the course and I suggest u go to the place before signing up. And DO NOT REGISTER ANY COURSE OFFERED BY MEDIC-ED. They may say the teaching language is in English or the fees are cheap, but u will surely be disappointed by the quality of teaching. DO NOT GO TO COUNTRIES WHICH ARE NOT AS ADVANCE AS MALAYSIA!

I'm a student from Segi, and I would say the faculty of dentistry here is great. The facilities here are new because they just started the course. The lecturers here are helpful, they have an organized program layout for the 5 years of studies. Its located at a good environment with shops around (sunway giza) .And the lecturers are all professionals. MQA has also recognized the dental course in Segi.

well since you are the first ever Segi dental student who has searched the forums to comment, i suggest you start by elaborating on
1) how your program is structured. What organized program layout of 5 years exactly is that.
2) fee$
3) what facilities offered and by what standards did you compare it to, since you mentioned in another post that it is better than other universities.
4) what exactly did you learn in first year dental

btw MQA recognizes everything, and MQA recognition is not a measure of whether that degree will allow you to practice dentistry in this country if you graduate.

Anyone knoews which private dental schools that are good n recognized?
i'm interested in taking dentistry..
i only know Mahsa and imu..any other colleges?

Lincoln University College

Aimst would be good too

Lincoln? Mehhhhhhhh

I wouldn't gamble my future with a university with a dodgy website

the 'online customer service' couldn't even answer my questions, instead he kept repeating about how 'seats are still available'. maybe he's just a bot.

LUC?
