QUOTE(Huskies @ May 21 2011, 06:53 PM) So if the graduates are going to work in the United States anyway, then why bother fund them in the first place??? Johns Hopkins must be laughing their socks off at our stupidity The reasons are not obvious?    If no money are funded, how can work in the US?

I for one will be most interested to see the MCAT and GPA averages (which I doubt PUGSOM will ever release) of the successful applicants as well as their USMLE Step 1 scores at the end of 2nd year. I'm pretty sure they'll pale in comparison to the candidates at Johns Hopkins. If no money are funded, how can work in the US? |

In general... Doing MBBS in Indian medical colleges by foreigners are more expensive than most of Malaysian medical IPTS.For example: Kasturba Medical College MBBS - will cost around USD140,000+/- MS Ramaiah Medical College MBBS - will cost around USD120,000+/- There is another forumer studying in Jawarharlal Nehru Medical College (JNCM), Belgaum, just north of Bangalore. He is an active Lowyat member. Forumer: http://forum.lowyat.net/user/tjinn JNMC Website: http://www.jnmc.edu/index.htm See this list: http://www.jnmc.edu/ugadmit/ugadmit07_08.htm You can ask him the procedure to get in to that medical college and the fees. Added on May 27, 2011, 12:16 amRegarding the 5-years freeze... That doesn't mean that no students will be allowed to do medicine for 5-years... It means that there will be no more NEW medical colleges/Universities open in the next 5-years. This post has been edited by CyberSetan: May 27 2011, 12:16 AM |

I find it VERY disturbing that people who can't understand the simple idea of a 5 year freeze on the establishment of new medical schools wanting to be a medical student.It means that there will be no more NEW medical colleges/Universities open in the next 5-years. Its not rocket science, and the media coverage on it has been quite clear. Yet the number of posts by people who go "what does 5 years medical course freeze means" in this subforum makes me worry how low can we go. |

If it is all about quotas...then my god....poor patients including you and me in future will suffer more.....the only thing we can do now is to pray that all medical graduates can be at least a competent doctor(it is naive but better then nothing)...And hope all the medical students(including me) who were so lucky have the chance that made you now a "private medical students" please always put your future patients as priority and put in as much effort as possible to be a good doctor in the future..... I am going to private medical university, and Yes I will always put my future patients as prority... I need some advise... For I am going to take MBBS this September.  Added on May 31, 2011, 6:14 amHey everyone, I am from Sarawak and I am going to pursue my medical degree this coming September in private medical university in KL. I am going to MAHSA University College went for the interview and I pass the interview tingy. Now, as a going-to-be medical student in Malaysia, would you(medical students or medical doctors) give me an advise on any preparations or whatsoever? I really need them.

There is also no increase in the number of medical seats currently allocated to the respective universities locally for the said period.

yeah.. i wondered how much students did segi and the likes manage to take in for their first batch.
Even for uni like UCSI who has already produced their first batch of students, they are still struggling to fill their places. Well that is before they open the seats to their foundation students. Only IMU and Monash consistently hit their target every year.l |

The batch with 21 students would be the first batch that they open and market to the public.
Before that there was an experimental batch or something like that with 4 people, I don't know how they choose students for that...maybe offer to a number of students from Taylor's College as they only put up posters in TCSJ then and I can't find any other marketing material elsewhere at that time. Their MBBS just started this year but their Medical Degree Transfer Programme started last year. |

I foresee taylors having great problems with their pms programme.......other than st. Georges, I don't see anyone wanting to go to poland and indonesia.......and the st georges path is shut for most who may be interested......they want aaa at a levels.......
And as a very late comer to the local scene, the will have lots of problems finding good students with money......there are so many other more established options........ |

Hope to study in PENANG MEDICAL COLLEGE, the twinning programme there the other undergraduate entry programme is with the rcsi and i think works out cheaper, about 800k..... both are overpriced, and i really have grave doubts if it will really take off......even with jpa/mara providing most of the students...... another scheme to transfer taxpayer's money to some special people......... |

QUOTE Sunday July 3, 2011 Second degree in medicine By ALYCIA LIM educate@thestar.com.my STUDENTS who have completed their first degree in the science field can soon pursue a a graduate degree in medicine with Perdana University Graduate School of Medicine (Pugsom), which will open its doors for the first intake of students in September.  Adopting the full model of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine (Johns Hopkins) in Maryland, the United States (US), the institution will be using the “Genes to Society” curriculum, which encourages students to explore the biological properties of a patient’s health within a larger integrated system of social, cultural, psychological and environmental variables for its four-year doctor of medicine (MD) degree. At an information session on the institution recently, Pugsom dean and chief executive officer Prof Dr Charles Wiener explained, “The benefits of going into medicine after the first degree is that students would have a greater sense of altruism, and they would be more prepared for the course. “Because of their maturity and academic preparation, the curriculum can also be more demanding, and allows for more research to be done.” » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « http://thestar.com.my/education/story.asp?...1&sec=education ... but for RM1,000,000.... i think they should do it elsewhere or just join the normal 5-years undergraduate program locally... |

I'd like to take this chance to warn wandering potential students of the Perdana University John Hopkins Graduate Programme..
The Graduate Programme mimic the curriculum and syllabi of John Hopkins medicine courses. Never did they state students would receive recognition above the ordinary programme Perdana University offers. Never did they state students would receive certification from John Hopkins. Even worse, as far as my memory would refresh me of their advertisement, the affliation with John Hopkins is nothing much other than to endorse the use of the curriculum and to ditto their graduate programme. Some would argue that it's not in their best interest to advertise those missing details, but beside the advertisements would certainly be their ordinary programme with collaboration with the Royal College of Surgery in Ireland, and they publically, and proudly advertise the certain recognition and certification by the Irish programme. That, in which the latter advertisement lacks. In my humble opinion, Perdana University John Hopkins Graduate Programme is a ripoff compared to its Irish programme cousin, where certification of MB BChir BaO along with their local Licentiate would be conferred.  |
