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?

oh it's 3 not 6? my bad.

yeah well for Monash all 150 must go to Australia for 3 months( as stated above to qualify) for AAC accreditation....but for IMU not all have the chance to go...unless they have a new policy which i am not aware of...

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?

3 months?......

Well that's what the admission officer told me. "If you're taking the local degree and want to do attachment to any of the partner schools for 3 months, we have agreement that you can." Not verbatim of course.

Is it during the year end break? Even then, first time heard abt it.

Number of facilities...especially the histo lab and library.....as well as amount of parking slots and printing machines..

You also don't have to wear formal everyday which saves money and time hand washing and ironing...

Lecturers are mostly local....

And of course the opportunity to network with other people from courses outside of health sciences...

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.....

Hye all,i am new to this forum

i got 1 question..

what i notice,for example if malaysian they can ask for loan from PTPTN or MARA,but how about PR malaysian? Pemastautin Tetap Malaysia (red ic).can anyone give me some info about this?

Erm not exactly. Their Quota is 150. but I doubt try manage to fill it up every year. The most also 120 for last year.

_______

Oh another advantage for Monash: the journals you can get access to is so much more than IMUs.

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

where did you get your info from? i got mine from a friend who's in that batch.

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

Ah well, doesn't really matter la. lol. bottom line is Monash's intake is still less than IMU.

That's a really odd question for this thread, but the short answer is: no.

The only right Malaysian PR's have is not to be detained by RELA during immigration raids.

I'm the TS, and yes, not all of the listed medical programs are recognized by MMC yet.

Its just a list of the IPTS that offer medical programs in Malaysia~ Thats it.

ohhhh.that's mean,if we have graduated from those universities not recognised by MMC,can we work in government? i mean after completed the housemanship laa

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?
