IELTS wasnt compulsory during my time (M206). Most of my friends got accepted with MUET and no IELTS, and most of them are of pms stream.

now they say it's a must...i ws told last minute to take the test

for those in the pms stream, you MUST have ielts, at least band 6.5 before you can be matched......it is a clear requirement of the pms.........

but imu will accept you before you have the ielts, as long as you get it before matching......

however, it appears that they now want ielts on entry.......and the pms now wants ielts 7.........

Most of my friends are matched to pms without IELTS, in my batch it was "stupid to take IELTS", "waste money". I took mine coz i missed the MUET registration date. I think they changed it, i'm deadly sure that MUET was the requirement some time ago, not IELTS. I had to take MUET during sem 3, but apparently those who din take MUET are safe too, they're matched safely.

things have changed.......perhaps a reflection on the prevalent level of english proficiency amongst msians.........

i haven't done my muet. but i've done my ielts.

the admin dept hasn't come after me!

not an issue if you are in the pms stream........since you will not be graduating in msia........

Hello!!! First Time Writing in this forum Quite a cool one

I might be goin to IMU this august (2009) for my medicine course

Now just Looking for some rooms for rent cuz i heard hostel can only last for 1 sem and quite expensiv

Any seniors of IMU pls help!!!



Sry if this is in wrong section O_O

hahaha i think this forum is more popular than the imu forum itself.

go look for a guy in this thread called chika, pm him and he'll have some details for you

hey cr7 thanks for adding more sh*tloads to my already very busy sem 5
nah just kidding
all i can say is, the best way is still to contact (email) SSD for accommodation contact+info list
some are people renting out the whole house, some just room(s)
or u can contact an agent called yvonne, she's quite reliable from what i heard so far
0122871844

Thx I will call her right away,

Actually I already found a room to share with @ RM 280 that includes electric and water bills + internet access =)
Now just waiting for the owner to confirm

where's the room?
which block/tower?
and internet access? i hope by internet access u mean time netlynx because that's the only reliable and unlimited internet service here

cant apply for streamyx meh?
how much is netlynx per month?speed?

no vista komanwel signed contract with time
and why go for a worse ISP?
netlynx is far better than streamyx
constantly FULL 2mbps (mine never dropped below 1.5mbps) for rm99 a month only
don't trust other ISPs, especially those wireless ones

edited: for those who are not really sure what 2Mbps means, it simply means when u download u see about 250kb/s (1kilobyte=8kilobits) download speed
and mine seldom drops under 200kb/s unless limited by the download sources servers' speed

:O:O that good?!?! crazy, gaming and downloading movies+music+tv shows must be awesome.

sorry but you're the only other senior around from vista. other people in this thread are mostly like "i'm joining in august"

Hello. Im joining in one week plus time. Hahaha.

Im gonna stay at IMU hostel.

but....

i thk im worried im going to regret staying there. =______=

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

I guess lot's of people are having problems with the well, let me put it... unclear way of the PMS route. I included =(

For example, if we get paired to an Australian university, are the certificates recognized automatically there? Are you able to do your housemanship there then later on practice there?

I think the room is in Block B ; now waiting for my fren/roommate there to confirm =0
I dunno abt Netlynx gonna hav to ask the dude again

Thats REALLY GOOD!!! 200kb/s is like a dream .... my fastest speed is 100kb/s here -.-

Imagine all that downloads

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
