no worries just jk
ya true also, where go the seniors here ya?
netlynx is especially good when u're the only heavy internet user in your house
like me i paid only rm25 a month (after sharing) and download up to 15gb a day

so? y would u stay in IMU hostel in the first place?
nvm it's just 1 sem, get to know some batchmates or friends and move out when sem 2 comes

Vista B if master bedroom rm280 is ok
but urs plus water and electric bills huh
what's the exact rent of the room?
IMO netlynx is even better than internet in PMS later in the sense that they don't have download limit cap (unless u're going USA and canada)
and so far i've no complaint over the speed
download youtube streaming (i stream good quality football matches every weekend)
but if ur housemates are also heavy downloaders and set mutual agreement and limit every1's download speed

but what i can say is no one (even the experts here) can be 100% sure of what will be the policies later when u graduate
it's subject to change over the time
especially if u haven't even stepped into a med school, which means it takes at least another 5-6 years before u can work

with almost the same cost
IMU PMS is apparently better than PMC in many aspects
just don care too much bout the waiting time

accomodation (rent+electric+water+internet+blah2) rm300-500 averagely
can be more than rm500
then eat rm400-500 or more depends on what's ur food
rm200 on mischellaneous
that means at least near rm1000 if u're renting a room in bkt jalil

megaupload mostly, cuz i'm using jdownloader so it's actually auto-downloading with full speed after i enter all the links
well from what i heard torrent will go with full speed too (200-250kb/s) if u find those with good seedings
ok for MEQ always remember to read your PBL, it's better if u can find the pbl faci guide and read on the exact learning outcomes (questions are based on the exact outcomes/issues, not the random learning issues u all come out with)
about half of the questions would be from PBL
OBA, no comment
EMQ 1 pharmacology question quite sure to be coming out since u all have so many pharmacology lectures in CVS right? Then maybe 1 physiology question. EMQ is the easiest of all so please don't screw up
OSPE ar just try finish it on time

A is a big no no. it seems near if u look from vista B or IMU. But actually the entrance is at the another far end.
B holds the biggest advantage -- being nearest to IMU.
C is when you are searching for rooms in better condition with better (relatively cheaper than B) prices.

This i'm not sure. Y dun u call students services (SSD) to find out more bout it?

i dun think anatomy and embryology play big role in ICA
if u got not enough time then.....
but then anything can happen
still IMO worth to take the risk

er any1 has any idea how to free myself from answering this question again and again?
u can either call yvonne the agent 0122871844 or email SSD for accomodation list

and don't expect it to be as easy as summative 1 and 2
no more easy A or A-
B will be the mean from CVS+Respi onwards
am anxiously waiting for jpa grouping for my PMS matching coming this week

haha my friend who always calls JPA for the matching thingy just told me today
the person in charge is on leave for the whole week
and our ranking form submission due date is next monday....
btw thanks for the wish

to me, in the end the choices still depend on one's personal conditions and needs
there's no definite "best" PMS to everyone
we can give suggestions but u have to make your decision lo
best of luck for your matching next year, in advance

eh forgot to upload this

M207 Tuition fees & iNFO_Latest.xls

Brighton-Sussex added
And no more University of Melbourne, those M107-ians who got melbourne have to do Bmed Sc first before transferring

yup forgot to mention UWS
UWS is in the MMC 2nd schedule, entered the list in 2008, together with ANU
but UWS is not in JPA recognition list (or just yet?)

keele and brighton-sussex are not even in the 2nd schedule
from what i read in the latest 2nd schedule (June 2009), MMC has not taken any of the UK medical schools which were established after the 3 newer medical schools in 1970s (Southampton, Leicester and Nottingham) into the 2nd Schedule
the last UK medical school they took in was University of Leicester in 13/11/1987 (even i was still in my mum's womb then)

Internships edge foreign doctors out

This post has been edited by chika138: Sep 6 2009, 10:26 PM

Canadian PMS stated black-and-white that no one is allowed to stay on for internship
unless u take USMLE and proceed to USA

ah NZ, that's what i'm wondering too

private students already submitted their Form A (PMS Ranking Form) today (their due date)
but IMU just can't process yet because JPA officer-in-charge is only coming to give us briefing on Wednesday
the old late JPA
all (IMU, private students and JPA scholars) are blaming on them

This post has been edited by chika138: Sep 7 2009, 09:05 PM

wow really? racism till rather get back home to finish phase 2?
and ya, JPA has again not failed to live up to their notoriety - by not coming again today, and leaves us no single notice on that matter
and hell ya com med report is the most frustrating assignment u'll ever have in your 5 sems in BJ. it's killing everyone

yes it is
look at page 3
http://www.imu.edu.my/pdf/Medicine_A%20low.pdf

u want near then vista B
u want cheaper and better room condition (generally) then vista C
u want new then savannah
u want very far and not new then vista A

hey not to say u're not welcomed here but how bout u starting a thread regarding this course?
or u're interested to join us here in IMU?

This post has been edited by chika138: Oct 9 2009, 07:01 PM

exactly
if i really don't mid spending 7 1/2 years i'd rather choose to go Uni of Sydney to get a PhD with a similar length of time
was about to ask them this question yesterday just that i had something else to do

ok for those who're sitting for EoS 2 soon (someone asked me through PM so i'd just post it here as well)

oh OSPE
er dun worry too much bout the anatomy as it's really gonna be quite simple
basically every component u learnt in F1 and F2 will be asked, including pharmaco and com med
for com med most likely there'll be some calculation question and ranjit's occupational health
but i can't comment too much on patho because the syllabus has changed quite a bit
SAQ? well depending on how prepared you are and how well u perform on the spot. The most important thing in SAQ is to finish answering all your questions if possible
but if u didn't study well and perform badly in SAQ prepare to fail that particular paper. most of my friends, yes, they got B- or below for SAQ

yes everything is tested, including BS, but i find BS quite unpredictable
embryology can be tested as well, read the more basic stuffs
hypersensitivity is a FAQ in SAQ as well
that's all i remember for now

just curious but why hong kong?

finally m207's matching result out today
i got otago
don't really like it, but well, it's life, just have to accept it loh
