I already got my ALE results and to my disbelief, i managed to get an offer from IMU. MMMC however claims that the seats are fully occupied and i'm placed 2nd on the waiting list.

SO, any seniors from IMU willing to prepare me for what i am about to face next year when i enroll in the FEB 11 BDS programme?

Any advice is very much appreciated. Thanks!

hey dreambig91, u got an offer letter from IMU for BDS? Wow.. I enquired from IMU they said that the BDS seats are very limited and the application is highly competitive - they even said for A-Levels you'll need AAB or ABB to stand a chance to enter. U must have done very well for ur pre-U.

I do wan to ask though are you planning to get a loan? Cuz if i ever apply for IMU i really dun know how to pay the fees for BDS - it cost a bomb. Until now I still can't figure out why does IMU charge so much for their local BDS? The total cost is like studying pharmacy in Australia

dentistry involves many expensive equipments la. u do know that one of their chairs already cost u 120k? and for a relatively good dentistry uni in malaysia like IMU, the ratio is 2-3 students per chair. so if they take in 50 students there must be at least 25 chairs, it would cost them about 3 million.

if u wan cheap cheap then go aimst lo, 4-5 students sharing one chair IINM. how to learn like that?

So that means the dentistry in IMU is really worth it then? If it is i dun mind applying after i finish my a-levels next year. Cuz i'm in a really crappy college now. i dun wan to repeat my mistake by goin into a crappy uni and suffer for 5 years (especially if the degree is such a professional one like dentistry). I'm willing to pay provided i get the proper training and education

of all the IPTS that offers dentistry, yes its one of the best(u dun have much choices either). biggrin.gif

I'm considering Dentistry/ Medicine in the Melaka-Manipal program.
I'm having difficulty in choosing between the both of them.
My pre-U results should be out by dec 2010, then I would need to apply.

However, any advise for prospective students in Manipal?
Any negative/positive remarks about Manipal or the program?

my friend just went there..

i just found out this is only their 2nd year doing this twinning program..

Just curious to what everyone is saying about IMU,

what does IMU have to offer in its dental clinics?

What chairs do they use? What dental materials do they use?

And what for what kind of treatment can i register to do there smile.gif

Wow 5 years ago, only 3 universities offering dentistry. Today, countless! All private schools set up by Government Corrupted Cronies just for the sake of profit without adequate standard, and there's no controlled and planned production of graduates. Very soon will be overflowed in excess..

although there are many upstarts but it's still not to the extent of 'countless'. just saying.
