QUOTE(wyatt615 @ Jul 8 2009, 08:31 PM) Hi, URGENT! I got the offers from both Nottingham and IMU. The offer from IMU is the a 2+2 credit transfer programme to university of queensland, australia. This is a very new programme, in fact, it is just being approved last week. I was used to dreaming about going to UQ, but there was no such programme last time. After some time, I was determined to go for Nottingham, especially after I got the conditional offer. But now, the IMU-UQ arrangement is very tempting. Should I change my mind and go for IMU-UQ or just stick to Nottingham? To be honest, I prefer to go to Australia instead of UK, but somehow, I don't like the idea of being the first batch student. There're only 2 girls who have already confirmed to enrol into this credit transfer programme. The website of IMU doesn't show anything about this arrangement yet, but it is being advertised in the newspaper. IMU told me to give a reply to them the latest by this coming Friday since the course will start on the next Monday. Can anyone give me some suggestions? Tq.   Heard that IMU- Otago 2+2 Pharmacy needs minimum AAA in the A-Level to qualify for this first batch. I wonder how about IMU- UQ requirements. By the way, what is the student intake for IMU-UQ?

QUOTE(jerk @ Jul 8 2009, 10:14 PM) @wyatt615 i think you would prefer the two years you are going to spend in nottingham malaysia campus compare to IMU but since you prefer UQ, this is going to be a tough decision. it all comes down to where you want to practice as a pharmacist next time. @mint080709 majority of those who possess AAA would definitely go for medicine. are you sure it is AAA? i'm very sure. that's what it say in the conditional offer I've got. or are they trying to make money from me? Added on July 9, 2009, 7:24 amQUOTE(limeuu @ Jul 8 2009, 11:09 PM) are you saying all pharmacy students are rejects who can't get into medicine?........ i am sure there are people who did well and choose to do courses they like rather than courses they qualify for......... no. i've actually got an offer to do med. but i change my mind..

QUOTE(limeuu @ Aug 9 2009, 06:26 PM) gov hospital..........no private hospital.......possible, if you get into management........which is unlikely at 35 y o Fully agreed that to get RM10K by 35 years is possible in the private sector provided you are capable to climb to the management level. Remember a lot of office politics hindering your progress overtaking the senior staff. The higher the pay the greater is the work pressure. Another alternative is open a pharmacy shop(s) and be a boss. You are answerable to yourself for the growth of the company.
