Failing rates are quite high, 20% of the class at least for the previous batch. February intake cut off is the lowest , you could get in with BBC in A levels. To know how many failed, you just need to look at your own class if you are sem 1, you can see many students retaking. And it seems IMU style of teaching and exam system favours the Singaporeans. Why did I say that? Because most singaporean who got into dean's list said it was easy, easier than studying for their own A levels years back.

Insulting Manipal again kid?
Kid, pls grow up.
Seriously, did you bribe your way into Melbourne U or are you even in medical course in Melbourne U? Your behavior is freaking childish. I seriously doubt that Melbourne U will take in people like you.  doh.gif
Have you been to Manipal? Any evidence from your side to support your claim? You should know what's evidence based medicine right?  shakehead.gif Pls apply this concept before making any claim or statement.

I think he didnt mean to insult manipal. He just trying to say at manipal, the lecturers teach you more(longer lecture hours and I heard from my friend in manipal that they teach them how to pass the exam and etc, not saying its easy to pass the exam) where else in IMU you have to fend for yourself (even though not totally as lecture notes are given). If the style has changed please update me. I am from UCSI and the style is about the same as IMU but there is no lecture notes given.

Dentistry easier to get in in IMU, the quota is not 50. Its just there isnt enough students. Students in IMU range from ultra intelligent to plain dumb. If you ever get into IMU don't let the students inside influence you with their bad habit.

Actually IMU is following the same way as their PMS style little teaching more self directed learning, actually this process is also being started by IPTA and is the same in UCSI, well there must be a reason a top advisor of IMU left to start another medical program elsewhere

Don't count in part time work, you can never gauge how busy your son will be and whether he can cope with working and studying. Besides I thought the ruling was, students can only work during holidays? If your son is caught working on other days the visa may be revoked, that is what I was told when I went to enquire at the UK Study Fair

Just make sure you have enough money and have done the proper planning to support him for the next 5-6 years. THere have been people dropping out from IMU due to financial problems, that is why sometimes IMU's interview will start with asking about your finances

IMU dont have cadavers. So do most of their PMS, cadavers are traditional learning, so IMU don't believe in it. Anyway, IPTS that have cadavers are USM,UKM and UM. The rest cadavers are hard to come by.
