Perhaps IMU will admit you because of the higher $$ that you will be paying.
Also, some people are of the opinion that Singapore A-Levels are of a higher 'standard' than UK A-Levels.
You will be of luck if IMU shares the same opinion.
Otherwise, I think you shouldn't put high hopes on it.
P/s: I have never came across anyone who didn't do well in the IMU interview, especially if the person had already go through some other "harder" interviews. There're rumors that the IMU interview is just a formality, if you get what I mean.
You are wrong man..my friend 4A's in A level..interview did badly..then IMU struggle to accept him until the very last minute just before new sem commences his parents make few trips to the campus and discuss with the head of department and only then he was offered a place..Also, some people are of the opinion that Singapore A-Levels are of a higher 'standard' than UK A-Levels.

What do you mean by paying higher money? Everyone applying for IMU is already ready for the tuition fee (at least have plan for his financial sources) so dun think that you are the one who pay the tuition fee. One more story. My another friend was rejected by IMU and finally his dad who is a politician (can't tell u who exactly) went n meet with the head of department, guess what? The person old him no matter you are DATO, TAN SRI or who, rejected means rejected..totally dun I've face, so what dou think your money can do even when those of political influence can't do anything??

Lol stop acting like you know hell a lot about the examination.... The truth is a level students did well better than Sam students and the percentile of Sam is adjusted, so many students got 90+ and above and how about those that are 0.1 percentile? If you are good, then you are, not about the board of examination

I'm currently sem5, if you able to score A, you are quite secure to get your top choice, however out of 200 students, only <5 got A, so don't think it's that easy. Btw edin is mostly for A and a- students.
IMU preclinical school associate dean told my friend who was a A student that not all A student will get their top choice bro..they have a private conversation regarding ow the PMS matching works but I can't tell u more details..just to say that there s bit of political factor inside..they can't send all the smart fellow for those highly ranked partner school, then let the average or borderline student ruin IMU reputation in other partner school..Added on November 3, 2012, 1:57 am

I tell you guys, IMU is the crappiest place to ever study medicine or pharmacy. Not sure about nursing though. You'll regret for sure. The curiculum structure sucks and their using soe university in Scotland to upgrade their image. Many students who studied MPharm twinning program said the local years are normal. WHen you go to Scotland, you'll suffer like hell. Like I said, they use that univeristy (forgotten already) to brand their product.
Go Russia or somewhere else. Don't be such a ***** wanting to stay here in Malaysia because you miss your friends and family.
Just a case in mind, there are NO recreational facilities there! Not even a freaking gym. What about swimming pool. The joke here is, it's called a UNIVERSITY.
Haha bro r u sure Bo? I dun noe ur real intention here but please do your homework..go find out he houseman ranking in 2011 see which uni graduate is the top and which one is the bottom..not to criticize about Russian graduate but few specialists commented graduates from Russian dun even know how to take blood pressure using spymomanometer..can u imagine?? Creepiest place? What do u mean by that? Campus location? Facility? Curriculum?Go Russia or somewhere else.

Support. This guy is an expert in the comparison of statistics between A-Levels and SAM. Maybe he should stop studying medicine and go work as an admission officer. Considering that most admission officers in the world are not as smart as him.
P/s: If that happens, half of the people who studied A-Levels will not get into university.
tell u one more thing bro..how sure are u edin is for A and A- students? make a call to seniors over there..there are also B and even C students there..as whatI said, not all A student get their top choice, same applied to B and C students..some of them were forced to go edin which was their 8th choice..P/s: If that happens, half of the people who studied A-Levels will not get into university.

Hello guys 
I'm entering IMU next year for the medicine intake. Problem is, I've heard about IMU's orientation being quite, how do I put it, too much fun? I've always suffered from asthmatic attacks when I get too excited or do too much taxing activities, and I don't think I can join the orientation, at least most of the activities. Can any IMU seniors help me with a few questions through PM? Thank you very much!
No need to worry bro..u think the seniors going to kill u?? Many ppl skipped orientation and this is not a MUST to attend (sorry to say that) though u can get to know ur future friends, batch mates through the orientation..just inform the orientation committee would be enough..to my knowledge there is no need for proper medical documentation, but doing that would cost u no harm..

Nobody care for your pre-U once you are in med school..it's like u won't care about your PMR already once you are at higher stage aiming for SPM..so there is no need to differentiate those from SAM and from A level..if you are really proud of A level then turn ur head and look at STPM straight A Chinese students who manage to enter UM medicine course..their pre-U result is 100% straight As + very outstanding cocurriculum performance..national sportsman, SEA game player etc..but no one care when they step into med school..what ppl care is whether they can be a life-saving doctor in coming time..
