I am the first year medical student in Cyberjaya University College of Medical Sciences(CUCMS), currently in second sem(Pharmacology block).

I don't know how to judge a medical school but base on my experience in here, this medical school is really amazing and awesome to me. Here, we are not spoon fed by our lecturers. We use Student Centered Team Learning (SCTL) method. We will always need to prepare for the class everyday without any help from the lecturers but depends on our team. We have our own team for each SCTL module and we need to present and explain the things we prepared before class. During the class, lecturers will give further explanation on the topic discussed and correct the wrong answer that we give.

Here, we use block system. That mean each subjects itself is a block and duration of each subject varied from 4 to 5 weeks. We have weekly test which consist of 25-30MCQ(T/F) to make sure we study and get what we learn in a week. Our final exam will be on every month of the particular subject and the exam consist of SBQ, SAQ, and EMQ. If the subject is a lab based subject , we will need to have the practical exam(OSPE).

For the first semester and half of the second semester of the MBBS programme, we are introduced with the basic medical sciences like Anatomy,Physiology,Biochemistry&nutrition, Pathology, Behavioral sciences, Medical microbiology, and pharmacolgy. The second half of the second semester until the end of the second year will be the systemic medical sciences like endrocrine system, musculoskeletal system, cardiovascular system and so on. Some infectious and topical diseases will also introduced in the second year.

From the second half of the second sem until the end of the second year, we will learn in the way of PBL, CST ,Lectures, and SCTL. The exam format will be the same as first year but in systemic medical sciences, the final exam will also consist of OSCE(Objective Structured Clinical Exam).

For the professional exam, second year will have a professional exam and there are two professional exam in clinical years. In order to proceed from medical sciences years to clinical years, you need to pass the professional exam in second year. Everyone have only 2 chances to fail the year. 1 in medical phase and 1 in clinical phase. That mean the maximum for you to graduate is 7 years. If you fail the medical years twice, you will be bye bye from our Uni. Whoever caught cheating will be expelled from the uni.

Our lecturers have very strong academic background with good experience in medical education. We currently have 42 lecturers in faculty of medicine.
