my results are shitty i know, but my parents want me to study med, wat else can i do? my father jz dun understand. He even thinks there's such thing like 4+1 where in the final year u can do oversea and study specialist and cum back m'sia become sum ent,ortho specialist. laugh my aSs off. he thinks i'm a genius. Mahsa offering med is gud news for me if can study there. smile.gif  yes, it'll be bad for this profession bcoz nw they seems to commercialise it and encouragin those middle-score student to take up medicine. but BUT  BUT!!!

think about it in the firz place, who did this? who caused this, GOVT. i'm sure there are ALOT alot ALOT alot worse bumis doc in local U, doin matrik all aiming for med. Their spm result is even worse. I got 9A but my frenz who got 7A (bumis) can still go in matrik(nw finished ady they are applying for med), local U.

So just because other people on the other side are also doing it, does it make it right? Your friends may end up as Dr Death: does it give you an excuse to be one also?

SAM90Gil, it is good that you recognise your weakness. If I were you, I would ask your father/parents one simple question: would they want to be treated by a Russian/Indonesian/Indian trained doctors? If they don't mind, then go to Mahsa and come out to be their personal doctor. If they do mind, tell them that is the kind of doctor you will end up if you go to Mahsa.

Say no. Simply tell them that you are not smart enough, and a TER of 80 is at the bottom where medical school entry is considered.

I'm not sure with a TER of 80, but there are other ways of entering the medical world. Nurses, pharmacists, radiologists etc. We need them.

做儿子的只希望父母开心, 病人悲心。

If you truly wanted to be filial to your parents, you would give up medicine. Even I, "someone who does not know anything", can say if you know that you are going to fail and drop out, why spend 20k to find out you are going to drop out? I could do with that money.

No one is asking you to tell him off. Ask him one simple question: would he want to be treated by a Russian/Indonesian/Indian graduate? If yes, then go ahead, but you wouldn't get very far with just 1st year medical school if you drop out, and frankly there are other courses to make a honest living.

A medical school does not become famous because of one brilliant doctor, but by producing thousands of competent doctors.

no doctor does harm with intentional malice........at least very few........

most do harm from incompetence.......

incompetence comes from being asked to perform a role over which the person is capable of......

the road to disaster is path with good intentions......

Hoo boy. That sums up Jayant Patel in a nutshell.
