Hihi. I have seen alot of topics posted about doing medic in Russia. How about medic in Indonesia? Any students willing to share? I am kinda interested cos' it seems that Indonesia unis had quite a good reputation.Besides, the low cost is definitely attractive. What say you?

Sorry to say, but ah..the name indonesia doesn't sound attractive at all...

Gajah Mada and Universiti Indonesia seems a good choice

u chinese or non chinesE?

this is not my personal opinion. but based on my fren's experience. my fren took medic indonesia b4. she quit in her 2nd yr.. reason.. cant adopt to the environment... she sed too packed. too many ppl.. mayb she's suffocated hehe.

i dunno its her issue or the country itself. now she still take medic in malaysia. she said.. medicine is her passion. she can study anywhere but indonesia..

at first i think she's too manja. cannot live apart from her mom. but last time she stays in hostel far from her home. still ok.

chinese. aikz.my parents say vr dangerous wor gadjah mada. earthquake...then they say indonesians kinda racist.is it true? i dowan die leh...

indonesian memang racist, and the situation there isnt safe as it used to be..

do read through the thread i gave u, its enlightening

i heard some uni in indonesia used Indonesia language as their teaching medium.. i forgot which uni edi
some of my seniors which are not too bright in studies during school time, they did score quite well in the xm.. i dont know whether the standard is low or they are more hardworking ...

*hope this thread is not going to be a country bashing thread again*

indonesia which part ? surabaya... ?

actually i open this thread not to bash indo or msia ( i not so free k ) I juz did it to get some advice. indonesia is my backup plan, juz in case. cos i might not get into local uni. in this case, my plan b would include indonesia, india and russia. so, what's ur take? i am a chinese girl/;)

are you post spm or stpm?

My friend is over there after her STPM because she was rejected a place in IPTA. She is an Indian
She told me things and studies over there are so far so good and of course everything over there is cheap and she can come back quite frequently. However, quite dangerous with frequent natural disaster, the most popular one is earthquake.

stpm.1b+,1a-,2as. so most likely local uni no chancelor....

I also heard Indonesia is kind of dangerous there and there is racism there and they hate chinese the most especially...true?

try the 2nd pier iptas like ums, unimas, may still get in the 2nd list..........no chance for 1st tier i think...............

what about ipts locally, should qualify for imu, malaka, aimst, ...............can apply for jpa loan............

a good uni in indon may be the next bet.........

Owh man, are they really racist?? , my dad plan to sent my youngest sis there for medic in case her application for medicine courses in IPTA fails, but after reading all this kind of replies, im sooo worry

racism is a global problem. Racism is rising in europe, US, Russia, Indonesia, even Malaysia... its juz that some group of people are more racist than the others... Basically wherever u go, there is a risk... it's juz a matter of whether u r willing to take it or not

even get straight 4As in STPM its not likely u can get into Medic in msia too not from me,from the newspaper,every year many chinese student cant get into medic or related course,anyway,i think....indonesia.......just go india/russia la or private uni in msia

my friend still studying in indonesia for medic. long time didn't see him. don't know what happen right now. but, so far, he said ok.

but, if I was give several choices to pursue in medic, russia, uk, india or indonesia, I'll choose india. there's a lot of dead bodies at low price for post mortem at there, lol.

well, natural disasters happen frequently nowadays in indonesia, and the people there are kinda extremist ( in the past, now i don`t know ) with bombings and terrorism stuffs

but if u stay around the campus area, u should be fine

ROFLMAO

r u saying that natural disaster n bombings wont happen in university vicinity ?? anywhere also can get those things... but i dont deny the fact that it is the place wif active natural disaster..

yeah, because university is not a building of religion or political.. so, it wouldnt be a target of extremists, plus, do u ever heard in the news that university get bombed?

so do u expect going to indonesia ..staying in the university until u grad without even taking a walk outside the U..

however indonesia is always a place with lots of risk.. is they anyone studying or grad from indon.. its better to hear from them..

jus wonderin, wats da medium taught in dentistry in places like padjadjaran . english or indon/malay?

indon - Indon language-- something like Malay language but a bit different.
