CUCMS is not recruiting new students this year?? I called them, they said no intake for 2011.

Source please.

I only managed to find this: http://www.nst.com.my/nst/articles/06efss/Article/#

Very quick question.

MBBS(IMU) or MBBS(Monash)? Assuming AMC accreditation is not on the table.

You should perhaps clarify "chance to go to Australia....". 

If you're doing IMU local, there are also chances to go to partner schools for 3 months. So... that point is moot

I thought its 3 months, no?

That's what I read as well.

Because you said :
I'm curious about the student ratio thing. Since the number per intake is now 150 and IMU local only have about 70 seats, shouldnt the ratio be better after the PMS people are gone?

So if the AMC/Australia 3 months thingy is out of the picture.. it boils down to teaching staff, student ratio, clinical schools and the difference is cost, right?

Are there any other jarring difference that I need to be aware of?

that sounds like electives......which is in the prograrmme of almost all med schools and one can do it anywhere, and is mostly used by students as a holiday to visit a place they likely will not visit otherwise,,,,,

usually 3rd world students want to visit the 1st world,,,,and vice versa.....

very different from monash msia's compulsory exposure to aussie medical environment as required by amc rules.....

150?!.....

wow....no wonder they are desperately still going all around the country trying to solicit students.....and taking in people with rather low qualifications......

It was 140+ last year. Only a few not straight As.

Someone in the same batch. Going to 2nd year. Don't know who is correct.

1 more question i would like to ask.... Is it worth to work in government? I heard government doctor is underpaid. Can they get back the money invested?

I'm going to imu-pms option. I took A-lvls. Would like to ask is it possible to apply jpa scholarship?

i know. but, i'm stuck there too.
my mother is opposed to me pursuing medicine whilst my father is in a whole different continent and it's hard to contact him
what would you suggest cybersetan?
my father said that i should opt 4 a-levels, but all the uni that i'm going now say that i should just go 4 foundation in science since its faster and more direct towards medicine.

The ones who have done A levels were Singaporeans. I think about 3 or 4 Malaysians got in via the standard MUFY program. All of them did the program in Taylor's College Melbourne. From this year onwards, however, MUFY is run by Monash College.

I don't think the chemistry paper became "tougher". Questions would have been based on the syllabus covered.
