Hello guys.. I'm really really interested in doing medic. I'd just finished Monash University Foundation Year(MUFY).

My first choice of university is Monash. However, I did not pass the MBBS interview. I'd sent an appeal letter to the uni and they said they will reply me after considering my final results.

When I got back my results, my results was like this:
Physic - 81
Biology - 90
Math - 92
Chemistry - 85
English - 81

The minimum requirement for the university is 360 marks (total of top 4 subjects + 10% of fifth subject).
And i got 357 marks.
I doubt appeal letters are going to save me.
All i can do now is cross my fingers and hope they will take me. Come on, I'm taking their foundation course!! xP
Okay i know i'm dreaming.


By the way, I also applied for IMU (PMS).
And this morning when I received the conditional offer letter, I was devastated when the minimum grade on the letter was 91% aggregate, instead of 80% like what they have stated on the course booklet thingy(my average for top 4 subjects are 87.25).

But seconds ago my friend told me that, for MUFY, IMU calculates the aggregate marks like this(quite different from the way Monash calculates it):
(total of top 4 subjects divide by 4) + (10% of fifth subject)

Which means, instead of 87, my aggregate for IMU will be 95.

So, my question is, can anybody confirm about the above information? The way IMU calculates my aggregate i mean.

I'm planning to call IMU to confirm this, but my dad said the line will only be open on monday, during office hours.
I'm soooooooooo nervous and I don't think I can sleep well before I know the answer.




And if, IF, "dai gat lai si" I cant get into IMU, at this kind of time, which university can i consider? (well.. with results like mine.. sigh.. =/ .. I wish I'd studied harder..)
I think application for AIMST is closed already.
How about Manipal? The closing date is on the end of february 2008 right?
Does Manipal require an interview also? (have to travel all the way from kl to melaka, if an interview is required =.='')

Thank you for your time.. I really appreciate it xD!!
Thanks a lot for your help.. I hope my the way I explain things was understandable..

Errr... I don't know how to quote my previous post. but its on the 9th page..

Anyway, i got the offer IMU twinning programme for feb 2008 intake, and I accepted their offer as well as paid the fees for first semester..

But then, Monash sent me a letter last week and said that my appeal was succesful and they offered me MBBS feb 08 intake too..

Eventually I chose monash because its cheaper compared to IMU twinning programme which need to go overseas.. ^^V

Anybody in Monash doing medic? XD
