Wow, very realistic indeed. But yeah, that is what i heard from my friends in IMU as well. 1st quest is always if your parents can afford your whole 5 years of studies, then proceed to do you think you have the ability to finish the course. My mom's colleague is on the interview committee for IMU too.

Hahaa. Talking about Evidence Based Medicine, freaking hate biostatistics and epidemiology. Any idea why should we start on this in year one itself? Headache.

Yup. Same here, it's a core subject for us under the Human Basis of Medicine II paper. Half a year of lectures and practicals on Epid and another half on Biostats. Both are killer subjects. Our dean was like saying how important these subjects are in the future for a doctor as some specialty such as cardiothoracic involves lotsa biostatistics. Dun know how true is it again. Hahaa. Study blindly all the while.

Yup, i'd also say that if you have the financial support. Why not? IMU-PMS sounds like a good choice after all. Many whom are hesitating if they are able to support their course fees throughout their studies, therefore they end up in places like Russia and Indonesia.

And like what blackrobin said, med students study hard and the remaining of the time is used more likely to release study stress (play hard) rather then working to earn some pocket money. Life would be more interesting like that i guess.

SMMAMS IMU is organizing a CME Quiz on Clinical Anatomy on the 10th of Jan. Anyone here is going for the event?
