QUOTE(ShaneNg @ May 15 2009, 10:57 PM) Hey, MBBSSiang had been having some network difficulties, which we'll be expecting him shortly, and shortly after that, he's off to MMA. So, he made his mind after all, that is interesting. I'm waiting for his reasons for choosing MMA. |

Im back!I have receive the offer letter from MMA even though it is an "easy"offer letter but I still feel very happy.Its because,at least I still have the chance to fulfil my ambition. The reason that I choose russian medical school is: 1. I have financial problem and the agent can definitely help me to solve this problem. 2. MMA is one of the Medical school that the JPA scholars are sent(recognition should be no problem). 4. The russian uni is the only medical school that I can afford and (reason1). 5. I know there are some negative news and corruption in russian uni,but believe the attitude is the key of learning.(Not all the russian medical graduates are incompetent) 6. From some senior experiences,If I dont have other better choice(financial problems) and want to study in russia.They recommend me to go MMA. I started to get as much information as possible about MMA and trying to aware and avoid some stupid and irresponsible behavior.Im sure,I will not become killer. My determination and serious attitude will lead me to be a competent and good doctor.Im sure for that. All the senior here,please guide me! thanks!

QUOTE(smartymh @ Mar 7 2007, 02:47 PM) I'm from IMU, partnered to Dundee,UK and now working in UK. Woohoo, after all these long years as medical STUD-ent. hey there been accepted for august 09 intake to study pms medicine at IMU..was wondering after you;ve graduated from your uk uni, what doeps it take for you to get a work permit after you've done your housemanship?? do you have to work twice as hard to just prove you're worthy of havin a work permit?? am scared they'd send me back to my home country(egypt) after av completed my studies in the u,k :SI need to clarify something first of all. You don't need to be genius to be a medical doctor. All you need is a good results from A-level, STPM or equivalent to qualify into a medical school. Once you qualify, all you need is brain cells to memorize all (not all, but MOST) of the medical facts that you will learn. Once you pass and grad as a doctor, all you need if to be street-smart i.e. be empathic, work hard and have a good clinical skills. As a doctor, you learn from working experience. So stop showing off by talking medical (trash) terms or conversing in medico-latin words. I hate some smart-alecs from year 1 or 2 who talk trash about anatomy and physiology which they just learn from few hours of lecture and not knowing how to apply it on human beings called patients. Therefore, if you don't like medicine don't 'try' it. Medicine is boring if you don't have the interest. With re: to studying in IMU, I can say I have no regrets. IMU life is one of my best part of my life. Ppl you met in IMU are awesome, and believe me IMU is just great. |

QUOTE(ShaneNg @ May 17 2009, 11:36 AM) How about after the housemanship? as of now UK allows a foreigner to get the HO years doen, after which they wont allow you to enter post graduate. I think if you're desperate, go marry a local and inherit a UK citizenship just for the sake of getting post grad : )I heard that they're no longer employing foreign doctors right? Same applies to Australia? Thanks i have not heard of Australia turning away foreign graduates. |

QUOTE(MBBS siang @ May 16 2009, 05:35 PM) 1. I have financial problem and the agent can definitely help me to solve this problem. So what is the estimated cost for the entire 6-years of medical study there (tuition fees, food, books, travel, accomodation)?4. The russian uni is the only medical school that I can afford and (reason1). Are you certain that it will be cheaper? This post has been edited by CyberSetan: May 17 2009, 11:26 PM |

If i'm not wrong, UK graduates who have finished their 2 foundation years are exempted from AMC exam. It was introduced few years back. can't find the link though. |
