so dun worry too much, when you get start , you will master it~

ok thx senior for that advice! its like last time think ABC was soooo hard now easy nia~

^,^ thx senior~!

all chinese here?

im chinese..but dunno how to speak mandarin..

nvm i will teach u when we meet up inside
do u have frens going together with u too?

no i think..=D

Btw.. here's a bit of a nugget for international students who are interested to pursue pharmacy at AIMST.

One of the first batch students' is an international student from Indonesia but she completed her high school education (did O levels) and came up top in her pharmacy class etc.

Many many red tape to go through if she wants to work in Malaysia (do the 3 year service). I also don't quite understand exactly what kind of problems she is going through...but just a heads up to those from out of Malaysia who hope to do pharmacy here. Do your homework first!

For dentistry, this girl told me that she was told that things would have been easier if she took dentistry instead (which she managed to get a place in, but opted for pharmacy)... but then again, until the first international student graduates from the BDS course, then we will know if it goes well for international students.

The most senior BDS international student is in Year 3 (we have some in Year 2 and Year 1 as well...Batch 4 and 5 respectively)... so I hope I can update about their progress when the time comes or maybe their classmates can contribute to this forum.

thx there jaye~

I think it's not going down. I can see new lecturers coming in. Day by day, I'm getting to know more about my lecturers. Some of the lecturer's research articles are being published in newspapers (not here but India as they are from India). And the published articles are not some ordinary research. So, I could say its improving.

Added on June 1, 2010, 7:09 pmWhat is not fantastic about doctors?? Only those who stand up to take challenges (either life or death) can be doctors. Not cowards, it's not an easy work to do 36 hours of ON call (min twice a week). When outbreak comes, only doctors there as first hand of help ( knowing the risk that they can be infected too), ask yourself whether you can do that or not? Don't say it's not fantastic. It is, that is why the number of medical schools are growing more and more every year (this year Taylor's and UTAR started) because they know there many who wish to study medicine even after knowing all that they need to face in future. No one had ever predicted well about future....(I dunno about Indonesian Taxi driving doctor, maybe they are doing that as part time job. For GOD sake, doctors pay are higher than a Taxi driver and no one would stop practicing after studying so hard). So, i guess you know whats fancy about doctor now.

every job is fantastic,not only doctors
yes,what i mean was,doctors in indonesia aren't be able to find a job due to surplus of doctors.
no offense

still many ppl focus on MBBS, dentistry and pharm....

no one wanna take biotech? biotech is improving a lot this recent years, after the new dean comes of course

comparing aimst, pidc , manipal, which dentistry is better
thks for the reply

if it's improving it's good then.
Glad new lecturers are coming in now, because before this my friend who's in MBBS told me quite a few lecturers leave.

I dunno about which one is the best....i can tell you a bit on AIMST dentistry and why it's expensive compared to many other Uni.

1) The Dean- Prof. Frederick Smales and his frens (whites)
are from Hong Kong University Dental Faculty before this.
- Prof Frederick is one of world's Top Dentist, was President of British Dental Association
- Even clinic at rural areas in Sabah knows him, very famous....(many couldnt believe he is AIMST Dean)

2) Has Malaysia's very first In-Campus Dental Hospital (setting like those in UK)
-it has around 200 dental chairs (even government dental hospitals dont have that much)

*liked ur post*

thx for the info
if im not mistaken,aimst dentistry is the cheapest among IPTS in malaysia
correct me if im wrong

woah aimst dentistry is very good!
