i will say abt the same as Kamal, but of course differs for different book. if you go NUS co op, can ask the students there for their membership card for 10 % discount.

there's also family medicine residency in US , which is equivalent to a GP in commonwealth countries.

i guess you are trying to say the specialists in US lack general knowledge in medicine, as most of them directly went into area of interest upon graduation, unlike their counterparts in commonwealth countries, who had gone through few years of housemanship and mo-ship before going into post graduate training.

Hi sofaking, why do you want to do your "sub specialisation" in US for another 6 yrs when you can complete it in 3 yrs times in spore? u have relatives in US or u r into very competitive fields like cardiology.

and to the rest of the forumners, it's best not to jump around different countries as they have different regulations, and sometimes you have to start just like a fresh graduate in a place that doesn't recognise your qualifications and working experience at the place you previously worked at.

Hmm, A Malaysian who qualified for Unimas in 2007, and who holds his/her medical school (NUS) in high esteem, to the point of being condescending of others. Also highly idealistic. You should be M3 by now. Let's see if you can trace me before I can trace you..... Oh, and enjoy your residency and bond  rclxm9.gif

Hi Sofaking, i'm very shocked and disappointed by the way you replied, so are most of the forumners here.

i hope you understand the purpose of this thread is to provide advice and guidance to people planning for their future career in medicine. your ans of why you are gng to do your "sub specialisation" in US will guide many of us in the decision, if you are willing to share with us.

and we should try to avoid personal attacks/comments in this thread.
