i hope i can go into med next yr ^^ having my foundation at perth this yr ^.^

need to ask.

IMU dentistry recognised?
AIMST med is a full msia degree? no twinning?
I'm doing UWAFP in perth, can my cert be used to apply for AIMST or IMU? and I'm doing ESL here, do i still need muet and ielts?

oh? ^^ but 85 is hard >.< hopefully i can manage 80, or better, get into medic in aus.

um.... where else no need ISAT to go into med/ den in aus?

ah thanks limeuu, so UNSW and utas no need to take any test? um, yeah i know i'm competing with internationals, btw i'm on foundation not yr 12. ^^

i'm sitting in may XD stupid test, it cost a friggin 200$! >< but my parents said that just go for a try. so yeah, oh well. Mind as well try it out.

lol XD XD




anyway, hope i can join the club next yr when i enter uni T.T I dont have much confidence in getting into medic here, but I'll give it all I got.

i'm pretty sure sg grads are working in their country instead of msia. Anyway, I think a doctor should have passion for his job and studies. I'll have to agree with limeuu that it is a bit sad to see some ppl 'forced' into med just because of pressure from parents.

not sure whether this has been posted or not, but its an article with title "are you suitable to be a doctor" talking bout the wrong ideas towards doctors and stuff like that... but its in chinese(taken from sin chew)

btw I'm going to UCSI this July to do medicine.

not sure bout the news I got off sin chew, and yes there are some false info inside. It's kinda like scaring ppl not to go into med. lol. Um I did apply for aimst, but the letter will be issued only in mid july right? So, not sure whether I can get in or not as priority is given to their foundation students first.

I can't really voice out as everyone here is my senior. IMHO, i think there are doctors who doesn't put money as their priority. Yes I believe a lot of new med students are entering med just because of the reputation / MONEY / or forced by parents. but surely there are those who enter because of the passion, and not money as their priority.

Honestly speaking. I never had the impression doctors earn A LOT. In terms of work load / shift hours too. I'm not being hypocritical as OMG! said, but really, I wanna enter med cos well, I wanna help others. I haven't start my course yet, so basically you all know more bout how it is, but I speak base on what I feel. Sorry if there are any bias / incorrect matters inside.

again, not being hypocritical. If you ask me to choose a job that I can be rich, I'll prob say I'll go into engineering, in terms of salary + work load.

*OMG! was caught plagiarizing! unit failed! xD*

I heard from my friends that there are 6 new schools of medicine opening? O.o thats alot.

i'm using lippin now, it's not bad i suppose, using harpers as cross reference.

I just saw the news about msia lacking of doctors and they are opening up more med schools in future, eg. UTAR. Wondering if its a plausible decision. We're lacking of lecturers right? I mean experienced ones.
