to all those who choose to stay at ums...

kudos!!

i'm sure most of you have enjoyed your time in this beautiful campus and the abundance of activities available - mount kk climbing, kayaking, scuba diving, snorkelling, etc etc....

i'm a graduate in convo 2007, and now working in mnc, and most of my coursemates too now pusuing their careers in mnc and big companies....

so, don't worry that ums qualification is not competible, as long as you have the right attitude, many mnc actually recruit graduates from ums... (",)

just to inform you all, ums was not my choice at all when i applied for ipta, but fate have it, and i just accepted it without knowing anything on the uni, and my first time to travel alone to east malaysia...

i'm glad i never regret my decision to stay and battle my three years in ums... wow, i miss sabah a lot....

wheeps!! i'm senior here than...an alumni, to be exact

a.) depends on which school and stream you are in...science stream shall be more than art stream, but generally less than rm1.5k, unless you are in medicine...

b.) yup, around rm300++ per semester....go for kg e if u can, i'll say

c.) yes, you'll need it, especially if your course require you to do a lot programming stuff (if you are in engineering/maths/IT)

agree with bezet, it is your attitude and skill when u look for job that matter most, not from which uni u r graduated from...

going kk,sabah has been much convenient!!
now that mas and airasia are competing on their low price campaign, it's easy to get a cheap air fare now...juniors are so lucky now....

ums is not far at all from kk town....just few minutes drive, or longer if by bus...but now that the 1borneo is opened, i guess there is less need to go to kk town, save time and bus fare how lucky the juniors now!!

you got Maths and Econs? good luck...and oh yeah, you'll like the macho Prof Zainodin (",)

hahaha..no need wan lah....perhaps for the orientation week, yes....but not till the extend must wear long sleeves...as long as you 'berpakaian sopan'...

after the orientation week, just wear whatever lah....but dont wear miniskirt and bare back lah...oh, btw, ums has formal days - monday, wednesday and thursday - where you have to wear professionally (",)
