tomorrow do we hav to wear white n black? coz when i went to aimst dat day, the staff said we hav to wear black n white formal clothes on the registration day but in the offer letter it is said dat we can wear casual n on the second day aft d registration day only we hav to wear formal...so is it ok if i wear t-shirt n jeans tomorrow? is lunch n dinner provided 2molo???

i'm in dis recent june batch ( stayed in aimst frm tues to fri n came bec to penang for da weekends). During d orientation day, one of the lecturer asked what course we want to pursue after our foundation n i realise dat those who wants dentistry r very rare...not more than 10 i think...n i asked my seniors they said jan batch also only very few who wanted to pursue dentistry ( not sure abt april batch though). So i think there r many places available for the "outsiders" who wanted to pursue dentistry nex yr. Unless those who gt rejected for MBBS opt for dentistry instead...

currently there r only 60 places for dentistry n there's only 1 intake per yr...but aimst said mayb nex yr they'll hav 2 intakes. Is dis true???

thank you !!! but now wat bothers me most is abt whether i can change rooms or not...i'm staying with seniors n it's so not convenient. Las week da student affairs scolded us for asking to change hostels to stay wif the frens we met on the registration day but the wardens said starting 2molo there will b lots of empty rooms cz mbbs batch will b moving out n las yr july batch oso moving out. The wardens assure us dat we can change rooms by then.

BUT, las friday after seeing our timetable n class allocation, a grp of my frens went to the student affairs to ask for changing rooms. In the end they gt scolded n weren't allow 2 change rooms...i was thinking if i go to find the wardens 2molo, i'll b allowed to change rooms or not

Move out?? wat you mean?? yea, i'm interested in dentistry. in a few minutes time i'm going bec to aimst...cant on9 for the nex 5 days til i cm bec for my weekend holidays again

kel003...can i knw wats ur name pls? i'm also in dis june batch foundation in science. I'm in class 2. Wat about u? R u a male or a female?

i heard rumours about aimst going to be turned into a public university....is that true? Anyone who could clarify that? I chose aimst bcz i dont wanna study in a local public uni n now it's gonna bcm one...wat the f**ck man....(sorry for being so rude but I JUZ CANT HELP IT....grrrr....)

I've got something to share here...i know many ppl condemmed the cafeteria food, but seriously speaking, i feel that the vegetarian food is really yummmmyyyy.....i cant get used to the food here at 1st coz i dont eat chicken n the fish here really sucks (at home i only eat tofu)...so i opted the vegetarian food instead n it turned out to be really delicious...really love eating it n it's quite healthy too...

btw...i lost 6kg becoming a vegan of course i din lose all da 6kg in the 3 weeks here in aimst la...or else my parents would hav definitely pulled me outta here XD

edge85, which course r u in? Medic or dentistry? 80% chinese? that's nice...i feel dat aimst's students r nice, we dont c colourful heads everywhere like in other colleges n uni. They never ponteng BUT the lecturers to ponteng very much.............they suka suka cancel class n then din even gif us a good reason for that. N when they replace classes, they never check whether the classroom is available or not. Juz ask us go there n then we kena kicked out bcz there's other ppl using it. Then we hav 2 go bec 2 our hostel...dam wasting time la....i hope da degree lecturers are not like that...

i'm thinking of changing to manipal. I heard da t aimst's foundation cert is accepted byu manipal n i can go there for my degree. Is dat true?

oic...i'm also planning to take up dentistry after my foundation. So how's da course? is it ok? lecturers ok ? I was talking to a dentistry 1st yr student d other day. She said most of the lecturers r britons?? n she told me her yr not much frm foundation. Mostly are frm stpm or a-levels. I really hope nobody frm foundation wanna take up dentistry nex yr then i dnt hav to compete for a place...muahahahaha....

i got a question tho...if those who took up foundation n then cant get into the degree courses then how? there r arnd 600 students in dis yr's foundation n there's only 120places for medic, 60 for dentistry, 60 for pharmacy n dunno how much for biotech. So the remaining who cant get a place where do they go ??? i'm really curious lol....

And, is da foundation exam hard? my lecturers make it sounds soooo hard...i'm starting to worry now...T.T
