You need to work on that english if you want to do med/ study abroad.

Alevels is the best choice imho. provides a broader pathways after and prepares you better for uni, in general.

If you want twinning, there are a few to choose from, manipal, pmc and IMU are basically the main choices. I don't really count Monash sunway>clayton as 'twinning' though.

How're your results?

haha my english is fine I guess wink.gif but I realised the mistakes I did in my earlier post smile.gif

yes well everyone's telling me that too.but it's 1.5 years right ? is there a shorter alternative ? also,which college is the best for A-levels? I heard taylors and sunway is good.How about Methodist ?

Why wouldn't u count that as twinning?

well I haven't got my SPM results yet but my trials was just so-so.Nothing bad not good.

I am not interested in medicine at all but I am merely asking on behalf of my friends what names to run away from when it comes to dodgy medicine programs. Sorry for not doing my own research because it is just not me, I am expecting nothing but a short reply. So far, I only know of SEGi and the notorious President College. What else should be added to the list?

Apologies for interrupting the discussion.  wink.gif

I have already send them the link a long time ago......
But that doesn't answer my friend's question, sorry.

Come on, since there is so many stubborn parents and incompetent students , the least we can do is tell them which school to avoid and which to go. At least that way the good schools can kick them out on your behalf and far less damage is done, save the damaged "face" which they deserve. laugh.gif Well intentioned advice will not deter them but the cold hard truth will. I am just asking for schools to avoid. You don't want to meet them after they graduate from dodgy schools do you?

Grant me my list please, you're not helping everyone by not saying no and I am beginning to feel tired being the mediator of my stubborn friends and fussy online medical students. Don't ask me to do the research because this does not concern me and I am but a mere messenger. Stubborn as they might be, they are still my friends. Treat it as if you are alerting people of a public hazard if you will.

Thanks for your attention.

In Malaysia, the medical schools TO GO to would be UM, UKM or USM for IPTAs, or IMU and Monash for IPTSs.

20% gets into top private such as IMU/Monash? tongue.gif or are they the richer ones? hmm.gif I think it's a whole different story if one is aiming for local Us.

With the entrance to oz and uk getting tougher, there should be enough straight As students for IMU and Monash, at least.
Anything less will be disastrous in the mid-term.

it is worrying, when students decide, even before they even graduate (and some, even before managing to enter med school) what they want to do on the basis of money.....not interest and talent....

You need Bs to qualify. Take the alternative foundation way.
You will get blasted here for thinking of taking med with the results you get.
A less demanding forum may help you.

is this a statement, or a question? blink.gif

Of course you can get in with CCC. Depends where and what uni you're going into. Same goes to the quality of education given to you. Airasia says everyone can fly, Msia says Msia boleh, I say, in Msia, everyone can be a doctor! biggrin.gif rclxms.gif We are at the top of the game cos we can do anything.

Why should get blasted for asking??...isnt tht the whole purpose of a forum to discuss and ask question...is there such thing as a less demanding forum??? all im asking is which med schools in malaysia that are not very particular about good a level results e.g (CCC) realistically speaking about acceptance of those results, as in anyone got get in?
