the department of immigration and citizenship of australia should be sending you a letter consisting your COE numbers shortly. with that set of numbers, you can then proceed to their website and summit your application online (be sure to have a credit card in hand).

shortly after completion, you will be asked to choose one of the panel health care centres (which have been pre-approved by the department).

anymore question? please be sure to ask!

If you think you are weak in English,

you should take IELTS.

For IELTS you would need 6.5 for all category to make it in =P
If you get 8 for the others and get a 5 in speaking , you're dead XD

No matter how good your result is, you have to pass the minimum english requirement ^^

I'm already doing my foundation in arts in UTAR already. It's too late to change now. That's why I need clarification now whether I could enter Monash or not if I do my foundation in arts in UTAR.

english should be easy for me. so means all i need is to do well in my foundation and good english to enter monash?

Actually the requirements are not very high for A Level Science students.
I came from A Levels and the requirement was like BBC or BCC smile.gif
Having said that, MUFY is still the easiest way to get in nod.gif

from my experience... usually they would send you to the head of school/program and u guys will have a chat. u have to bring ur results and also syllabus outline. then u guys will discuss on how 2 proceed. i would suggest you do it earlier, as this might take sometime. recently they are quite lenient on entry, lack of funds...lol... they let u in, if u dont meet their standard after 1st year then they kick you out.

is it that lenient? from what i have heard (personally from the school of business), you have to achieve at least an average of 60% (spread across the 4 units) without failing any, for the first semester for an automatic and non-negotiable entry i.e. unconditional offer, to proceed to the next semester.

anything less than that, you might have talk/butter your way through (or getting your favourite personal tutors/lecturers to support your claim). basically a lot of justifications to work around. a bit leceh la of course. hence the prescribed result above, will sort of like guarantee your progress to the next semester.

no no.. u got me wrong... lenient i mean lenient to enter, after they take ur fees it is up to u whether u can survive or not.. studying in monash is never easy, they purposely make it easy to enter so they can get at least 1 sem of ur $$$, then if u cant follow their standard out u go, that way they can make $$$ and maintain their standard.

Depends on what place u referred to. Library 2nd and 3rd floor the "quiet" area is good. But sometimes some students will come and talk talk talk, damn annoying. But if all are concentrating, is quite a good place to study. smile.gif

Comp lab is other place to study if u like, find those that are near-vacant. Anywayz, if u ask me, i prefer library smile.gif

although msian standards in general is higher than those in aus, but it is to ensure those that transfer can cope in a diff/new environment. sometimes being in a new place pose a lot of challenges.

There's a twinning program. From what i know, if transferring to Clayton/Claufield, require avg 70 marks. To Berwick is about 60 marks if not mistaken.

For business students, u can go either after 1 year in msia or after 1 and half year. For engineer, medicine etc, not sure tongue.gif

no twinning, msia campus is a full campus, it is call transfer not twinning, twinning are for those con job colleges that cant offer degrees.

business students can even go during their 1st year.. just register there. for engineering & d rest is anytime, but if u want the aus degree cert at least 2 years must be there. as for med, they keep changing the system as they are new, dun think there's transfer.

yes, u got it right. 1+3, 2+2, 3+1 all those bs are twinning. in monash u can just transfer around as u like as long as u meet the requirements and also if the other campus offers the subject. u can even go africa if u want.

It's 36k a year plus 4.5k for every subject that you retake. Compulsory to study for 4 years, so 4 x 36. You do the math. Not sure about accomodation but if you're planning to stay in lagoon view or sun-u residence then perhaps u should call them up and ask. If you rent a house with your buddies tho, it's much cheaper that way. Can get around 300 bucks for 1 room.

Take a bus mini to Sunway Pyramid and transfer to another Bus Mini to Sunway College. From there you can walk to the Monash campus. Or if there's a bus mini straight to Sunway College? I'm not sure.

here is some useful information to those who have close relatives/siblings studying/planning to study in australian monash campuses (the sunway campus is not applicable AFAIK).


mine has just been approved today. in this case scenario, the one who is paying the higher tuition fees, will automatically receive a 10% discount of the total tuition fees.

I think it's a great sch. So far I don't have any unsatisfactory with it.. Although we have many assignments to do. But if you compared to the science students, we are considered very lucky.. coz their workload is much heavier than us. Hmm.. so far so good. I would say that you need to join some clubs, so that you have other activities and meet more new friends besides studying. It will make your uni life more fun.. :-)

I doubt that. public universities in malaysia are most selective, means the crappy students won't get in even though they are rich and have loads of money, unlike private universities in malaysia where most you can get in if you have money no matter how bad or good you are because that is one of the purpose of their existence, which is for people in malaysia to get education when they can't enter public unis nor go overseas. I'm not saying Monash is bad, just that Monash Uni in australia is considered as a public university, and it is a very reputable public university in aus, which is i think should be quite selective and not based on getting profit. But in Malaysia Monash is considered as a private university as it doesn't run with the government of Malaysia, and for a Private University to run, especially because it needs money and Monash Malaysia is still new so it needs to survive, means the crappy students with crappy marks that are rich also can get in, so you can imagine what kind of people is inside there. That's why I do doubt the quality of students there. If you're saying they are better than other PRIVATE colleges in malaysia, then you're probably right, but then still, private universities is about who has the money to go in, not really marks, cuz marks as long as you meet minimum requirements 2.0-2.5 and you have loads of money you can get in already, and that's quite low, that won't happen at public universities though, 2.0-2.5 cgpa don't guarantee you an admission at reputable public universities in Malaysia. The only difference is that public universities in malaysia have excellent students from different social classes, so you have the kampung girl who got straight As, a guy from rempit family who turned smart and got a scholarship, some chinese pasar malam tauke's son who managed to score himself in, some indian farmer's son who studied hard to get in...means you'll see different types of social behavior and attitude that probably makes you go "Eww..." and think the quality of students there are low standard, but think about it, smart people don't always come from rich families and those people are not as lucky as everyone else. The standard of students at Monash Malaysia will never be as good as any high-ranking public universities in Malaysia until Monash Msia become really selective in their admission and don't let people below 3.0 cgpa to get in easily, which is never gonna happen, in current time because Monash Msia seriously do not have the application essay requirement like US universities to see how smart these 2.0-2.5 cgpa or below 3.0cgpa students really are and the university still needs to survive its early years here in Malaysia.


Added on April 12, 2009, 3:39 pmI've seen the list of clubs thanks guys.

Btw, No ice hockey club? lol. Monash sunway is near sunway pyramid and they have an ice hockey club there where they train and play at pyramid ice rink. Would be cool if Monash can have one since Australia is an ang moh country and ang moh country usually got ice hockey lolz.

1st of all... if u r talking about straight As student... most of them are already filtered out with scholarships (petronas/jpa) during their spm/stpm

2nd... in general, well off kids (middle and upper class) do better in their studies... of course top 20% percentile of poor kids would be on par with top 50% of better off kids... whether u like it or not, well off kids have more advantages

3rd, what makes u think these poor kids wont opt for private unis' scholarships n instead attend public Unis?

4th, public unis are diluted by matriculation stuednts and we all know the standards of these kids

5th, u think monash in msia is easy? yea.. easy to enter... after they suck ur $$$ during the 1st 2 years n if u cant cope they will still kick u out.. that's their method.. win win situation for them..

6th? excellent students? come on ... u gotta be kidding me... if u r talking about the top 10% public uni students.. then yes, these kids will do well no matter what they do.. d rest?

1. Well here's the thing, you never say your statement clearly, so I probably didn't have the motivation to either, but here goes man, be ready for it, there are also those whom are 4As - 9As that don't get those scholarships and are considered excellent students and some of them may have excellent extra-curricular background as well and some might be state and national athletes too. Especially those that are non-bumiputra because the scholarships are given a little more emphasis to bumiputra, so there will be some non-bumi and a few bumi that don't get it. Whats most important is that those 3As to No-A-at-all students don't get in public universities.

2. Looks like you showed how selfish you are, just because you're rich you are now discriminating poor kids. Poor kids have a harder life and it is even harder for them to score in their studies because they need to help their family to get money for food and shelter while you stick your butt at home playing dota and have everything spoon-fed at you until you become a guy that think he is the best people in the world and not realizing it is because he was BORN rich which made it easier for him to get success.

3. Haha, here's the thing man, you contradicted yourself there. First you said poor kids don't do good in their studies because they're poor, now you're saying what makes me think poor kids don't get scholarships? Well, since majority of poor kids don't do well, not all of them will get scholarships. Think about those who get 10Cs for SPM.

4. Again, you say things out of thin-air, just like in the other thread about MMU vs Swinburne, and people are already complaining about you. What is the proof that matriculation students have some kind of standard that you're talking about? For what I know they don't accept everybody inside the matrics, only the good ones. My friend got 7As for SPM and he needed to APPEAL to get into matrics, and he is a malay, imagine that, not that easy. My sister used to be a matriculation student as well and now she is a doctor, graduated from an overseas university, people at the hospital are praising her for her work.

5. Dude, in public universities, for like courses like medic and engineering, you need to get 4.0 to confirmed to STAY in and not get kicked out. Even 3.8 is dangerous already and you might get kicked out. Monash is like what? 3.0 and above to stay in? what you're saying about monash isn't true and out of thin-air, just as usual, you know why? you wanna know why? because monash still needs to money no matter what, they NEED those students for the survival of the university for the time being, so they won't kick students like public universities does. Public universities don't need any profit from students, they don't run on student's money, so they can kick the lousy ones anytime. My dad is an education officer dude so I know, take that.

6. Public universities are very very selective in the process of admitting students, especially those high ranking public universities, because there's not much space for everyone here, so they need to get only the best people. So whatever it is, I have already said it, at least public universities won't have all those Fail students or C/D grade students getting in just because they're rich.

1. Well here's the thing, you never say your statement clearly, so I probably didn't have the motivation to either, but here goes man, be ready for it, there are also those whom are 4As - 9As that don't get those scholarships and are considered excellent students and some of them may have excellent extra-curricular background as well and some might be state and national athletes too. Especially those that are non-bumiputra because the scholarships are given a little more emphasis to bumiputra, so there will be some non-bumi and a few bumi that don't get it. Whats most important is that those 3As to No-A-at-all students don't get in public universities.

we are not just talking about gov or glv scholarships... we r talking about scholarships in general.. there's asean scholarship, fulbright.. so many others that dont discriminate on race... if they allow their extra curricular activities to affect their studies, i dont consider them excellent.. they might be a excellent fballer like rooney, but not as an academician. look at nicol david, frank lampard... these are examples of ppl that do well in studies n their activities. go to any private coll, with 9A1s u r ensured of a scholarship.

2. Looks like you showed how selfish you are, just because you're rich you are now discriminating poor kids. Poor kids have a harder life and it is even harder for them to score in their studies because they need to help their family to get money for food and shelter while you stick your butt at home playing dota and have everything spoon-fed at you until you become a guy that think he is the best people in the world and not realizing it is because he was BORN rich which made it easier for him to get success.

whether u like it or not, that's the way it is. poor students have disadvantages and many can't work through this challenge. those that can will do well and hopefully move their family ur the social class. i didnt discriminate at all, i am just talking facts. not all rich kids waste their time, usually rich parents wants their kids to stay rich therefore providing more useful activities and because poor parents are most of the time preoccupied making $$$, their children are neglected. read books from syed akbar ali, and u will know more.

3. Haha, here's the thing man, you contradicted yourself there. First you said poor kids don't do good in their studies because they're poor, now you're saying what makes me think poor kids don't get scholarships? Well, since majority of poor kids don't do well, not all of them will get scholarships. Think about those who get 10Cs for SPM.

we are talking about percentage like the bell stats graph u learn in form 5. i am talking talking about absolute. and i am not contradicting myself. poor kids in 'general' dont do as well, meaning mayb the lower 75% of the poor kids and well off kids meaning the top 40% of the well off kids.

4. Again, you say things out of thin-air, just like in the other thread about MMU vs Swinburne, and people are already complaining about you.

My sister used to be a matriculation student as well and now she is a doctor, graduated from an overseas university, people at the hospital are praising her for her work.

then why segregate and give a short cut to certain ppl just because of their race? even if it is though, everything is not transparent at all. it is all internal markings, why cant they just have a standardize exam? why the seperation? ppl can say all they want, i believe in freedon of speech.

5. Dude, in public universities, for like courses like medic and engineering, you need to get 4.0 to confirmed to STAY in and not get kicked out.

what education officer? lol... kick out? have u been reading the newspaper? local public u phd students taking more than 6 years to get their phds and not to mention even of the super low numbers. have they been kick out? no, they have been fed with the tax payers $$$ to enjoy their stay in western countries. if other unis, more than 5 years you will be out and your grants will run dry already.

6. Public universities are very very selective in the process of admitting students, especially those high ranking ones, one, because there's not much space for everyone here, so they need to get only the best people. So whatever it is, I have already said it, at least public universities won't have all those Fail students or C/D grade students getting in just because they're rich.

high ranking? err.. what ranking? they are not even ranked in the top 100 unis in the world. we are talking about percentile here, i am not saying all of the students are bad, but the standard is much lower. maybe you have not been out of the country before to compare the standards of unis.

I doubt that. public universities in malaysia are most selective, means the crappy students won't get in even though they are rich and have loads of money, unlike private universities in malaysia where most you can get in if you have money no matter how bad or good you are because that is one of the purpose of their existence, which is for people in malaysia to get education when they can't enter public unis nor go overseas. I'm not saying Monash is bad, just that Monash Uni in australia is considered as a public university, and it is a very reputable public university in aus, which is i think should be quite selective and not based on getting profit. But in Malaysia Monash is considered as a private university as it doesn't run with the government of Malaysia, and for a Private University to run, especially because it needs money and Monash Malaysia is still new so it needs to survive, means the crappy students with crappy marks that are rich also can get in, so you can imagine what kind of people is inside there. That's why I do doubt the quality of students there. If you're saying they are better than other PRIVATE colleges in malaysia, then you're probably right, but then still, private universities is about who has the money to go in, not really marks, cuz marks as long as you meet minimum requirements 2.0-2.5 and you have loads of money you can get in already, and that's quite low, that won't happen at public universities though, 2.0-2.5 cgpa don't guarantee you an admission at reputable public universities in Malaysia. The only difference is that public universities in malaysia have excellent students from different social classes, so you have the kampung girl who got straight As, a guy from rempit family who turned smart and got a scholarship, some chinese pasar malam tauke's son who managed to score himself in, some indian farmer's son who studied hard to get in...means you'll see different types of social behavior and attitude that probably makes you go "Eww..." and think the quality of students there are low standard, but think about it, smart people don't always come from rich families and those people are not as lucky as everyone else.  The standard of students at Monash Malaysia will never be as good as any high-ranking public universities in Malaysia until Monash Msia become really selective in their admission and don't let people below 3.0 cgpa to get in easily, which is never gonna happen, in current time because Monash Msia seriously do not have the application essay requirement like US universities to see how smart these 2.0-2.5 cgpa or below 3.0cgpa students really are and the university still needs to survive its early years here in Malaysia.


Added on April 12, 2009, 3:39 pmI've seen the list of clubs thanks guys.

Btw, No ice hockey club? lol. Monash sunway is near sunway pyramid and they have an ice hockey club there where they train and play at pyramid ice rink. Would be cool if Monash can have one since Australia is an ang moh country and ang moh country usually got ice hockey lolz.

It doesn't make a difference though, still What will happen to those who got 4As to 9A1s?They will go to to public universities if they don't have money. That's a lot of people you know, because 4As to 9As ,it's Average achievement.

You don't think sports achievement is an achievement? Then you're challenging the American Ivy League Universities. They give easier admissions for athletes. My friend's friend who is a Malaysian Athlete got into MIT massachusets institute of technology without getting a high SAT score.Take that.

Yeah so that means most of the poor kids that gets 4As to 9As that couldn't get any scholarship because most scholarships would only want 10As students would go to the public universities and unable to go to monash university because of their expensive fees.

Haha, you follow the typical Malaysian wannabe American type of individual. Dude I do business with american people, think you're the only one who work with Americans? But anyway this is easy to beat. with only one word. READ MALAYSIAN HISTORY AND AMERICAN HISTORY. The people that segragated us in the first place are the British people. They also did not give proper education to the malays because they do not want them to fight back. The chinese people were here to earn money as british tin mine workers for a low pay. And the British were using the chinese to steal Malaysia's resources like tin mines and all. Now the country they build in the UK is from the resources that came from the Malaysian soil itself, they stole our resources man. Remember those train tracks they build? haha. And they left us being poor with only a sum of money JUST ENOUGH for all the races. Remember the Reid Commission? During the reed commission tunku abdul rahman asked for equal rights for all Malaysians. Tunku Abdul Rahman and the Alliances agreed suggested that

- “in an independent Malaya all nationals should be accorded equal rights, privileges and opportunities and there must not be discrimination on grounds of race and creed….”

“to eliminate Communalism as a force in the political and economic life of the country.”

(Lim Kit Siang quoted this in his website hahahaha)

But you know what happened after that? the socio-economy was so unbalanced because the british divide-and-rule us according to race, that we HAD to balance it out. And just like the poor kids being poor, the Malays and the Indians were poor as well while the chinese being the richest, the purpose of the New Economic Policy after the 13 may riot was to balance out the unequality. Means the gov had already had tried to give equal opportunities for the first 13 years of our young nation in the first place but found out that the damage done by the british was too great.

Here's something for your surprise, The United States only started to implement their equal rights policy in the 1960. and their independence was in 1776. They only started to implement equal rights 200 YEARS after their independence. Not to mention the blacks became slaves before that and faced dangerous discrimination. People die there.

Monash Malaysia isn't in the world ranking at all. What's in the world ranking is Monash Australia only.

well, if u didnt already know, all monash msia's research are achieved under monash uni as a whole. we have 7-8 campuses and we dont seperate our research because all are deemed equal standard. i am not going to monash aus mind u, i had already grad a long time ago. if u didnt know, 10% of our students are from jpa n petronas, another 5% is from mara, nearly the whole medical school and a big percentage of the engineering school are all from gov sponsors. only the best are send here. if u worship local unis then so be it, u decide urself. already said, if they are smart somehow or another they would already gotten scholarships n i dont wanna repeat the whole argument again. if u got a problem with ppl being rich, that's ur problem and blame urself or ur parents. ps: apartheid is not the way, merit is.

Whoa cool! thanks man, you just proved my point in my previous post (see below check page 8 brows.gif ):
The only difference is that public universities in malaysia have excellent students from different social classes, so you have the kampung girl who got straight As, a guy from rempit family who turned smart and got a scholarship, some chinese pasar malam tauke's son who managed to score himself in, some indian farmer's son who studied hard to get in...means you'll see different types of social behavior and attitude that probably makes you go "Eww..." and think the quality of students there are low standard, but think about it, smart people don't always come from rich families and those people are not as lucky as everyone else.

yeah so can those stpm students go Monash if they didn't do well again in stpm if they're not rich? That’s the point, and you just answered it. They can’t. The thing is, you’re not answering my questions Because earlier you were talking about straight A students that couldn’t get gov scholarship but could apply to other scholarships like ASEAN, Fullbright etc, well I already told you, those scholarships are looking for Top straight As students as well! Just like gov scholarships and for those other scholarships they are even more competitive than gov scholarships because they are open to not just all races, but some of them open for people from other countries as well like ASEAN! making it very hard for you to get, harder than JPA or Petronas scholarships. Meaning very LITTLE of these straight As students will get it and how can the 4As-9As students get those kinds of scholarships? It would be even harder for them.

we are not just talking about gov or glv scholarships... we r talking about scholarships in general.. there's asean scholarship, fulbright.. so many others that dont discriminate on race... if they allow their extra curricular activities to affect their studies, i dont consider them excellent.. they might be a excellent fballer like rooney, but not as an academician. look at nicol david, frank lampard... these are examples of ppl that do well in studies n their activities. go to any private coll, with 9A1s u r ensured of a scholarship.

Well here's the thing, you never say your statement clearly, so I probably didn't have the motivation to either, but here goes man, be ready for it, there are also those whom are 4As - 9As that don't get those scholarships and are considered excellent students and some of them may have excellent extra-curricular background as well and some might be state and national athletes too. Especially those that are non-bumiputra because the scholarships are given a little more emphasis to bumiputra, so there will be some non-bumi and a few bumi that don't get it. Whats most important is that those 3As to No-A-at-all students don't get in public universities.

So you’re talking saying that for athletes to get in universities or scholarships they need to excel in studies as well? Well, my friend’s friend just had an average SAT score. And look at this, here’s a proof that any tom d*** and harry can enter university because he can throw balls better.

well if u wanna justify racial massacre go do it in RWI, we have no place for racism here. clearly ppl like you have no place in an academic world. what has happen doesnt mean it should be. i have never mention of american before and i dont see the significants of both countries. well ppl have their views, just because they dont agree doesnt mean i cant have my own views. if u r an academician, you will justify ur stand and just not ask ppl to shut up like most msians like to. if u behave like that, until now we should still think the world is flat and we can change gold from lead.


Hey man the thing is, I don’t behave like that and you have no proof that I am promoting racial biasness here, I’m only telling you things based on race here right now because the reality of it currently, and wherever you are in Malaysia, you still have to face this right now so you need to learn how to navigate your way through here if you want a good education and is not very rich. You have to be realistic about Malaysia right now. Instead I was offered a place at UiTM Malacca and my parents wanted me to go there but I quit UiTM because UiTM was a malay-only place, they never told me that it was bumiputra only until after I found out when I’m there. I am from a mix heritage, Malay + Chinese, so I see things from both sides. My friends from high school are majority Chinese. But other than that, you still never read history. But I think you seem to have racism here because most of the Malay and Indian communities are poor and you never think about them. You seem to be comfortable with your Chinese-majority monash surrounding. Trust me, even America that is currently equal-rights right now has scholarships for black people and native American people and they still give easier admission for native Americans and blacks. http://www.montana.edu/wwwnss/images/Nativ...arshipGuide.pdf

And check this out, even one of the most selective school in the WORLD like MIT Massachusets of Technology are admitting students based on race (to help the poorer students).


http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/apply/...ion/index.shtml

“In undergraduate recruitment and selection, MIT looks at each application holistically, taking account of many different factors that have shaped a student's experience, including his or her racial, ethnic, social, economic and educational context. We believe it is crucial for the successful future of our world to educate people from every walk of life, and we take great pride in the diversity of our student body, which is typically made up of 19-22% underrepresented minority groups.”

You have to be realistic, even in the US, they USED to face racial discrimination and now they needed help and the US give them help base on race. I’m not promoting racial biasness here its just that to balance things out for future generations we need to fix something that people did in history.

See, even MIT is helping people based on race because of HISTORY. We all know how reputable MIT is, not even the smartest kid in my school could get in MIT. This year there is only 1 Malaysian that got in MIT. Each year only 1 or 2 people could get in the ivy league universities. If everyone were to behave like you, people would still think the world is flat. It already shows that you don’t read history and you don’t care to fix it and you don’t care about other people. What you mean by equal opportunities is actually YOUR OWN OPPORTUNITY. Do you care if the Indian people are gonna die of starvation later when you take out the quota for Indians at public schools? Would you fight for them later on if you get your special opportunity? I bet not. Cause from what you said earlier as well, it already shows how selfish you are thinking that low class people are low standard.

If can I do want things to be based on merit only also, but reality doesn’t have that currently. Only future generations can change it. Are you gonna help me change it in the future if I say I would fight for equal opportunities?

well, if u didnt already know, all monash msia's research are achieved under monash uni as a whole. we have 7-8 campuses and we dont seperate our research because all are deemed equal standard. i am not going to monash aus mind u, i had already grad a long time ago. if u didnt know, 10% of our students are from jpa n petronas, another 5% is from mara, nearly the whole medical school and a big percentage of the engineering school are all from gov sponsors. only the best are send here. if u worship local unis then so be it, u decide urself. already said, if they are smart somehow or another they would already gotten scholarships n i dont wanna repeat the whole argument again. if u got a problem with ppl being rich, that's ur problem and blame urself or ur parents. ps: apartheid is not the way, merit is.



Yes dude, I already know they send mara,jpa, petronas to Monash, because I know the external relations guy there haha. The scholarships students are those that couldn’t fly to overseas under those scholarships but they’re still just a small percentage. Means the rest are all still rich kids haha and you can’t deny that, just admit it.

If you’re saying I’m apartheid? Then what is MIT doing? Haha. That means you’re saying MIT is apartheid as well. One of the best universities of the best universities in the world you are labelling as apartheid. This is the common sense of Malaysians, they always think America is fully equal opportunities. The only difference is that America was controlled by the people that conquered, Malaysia is controlled by the people that were “conquer-ed”.


Anyway, I just realized that your English is not very good. I kinda got confused when reading your post, and you’re probably confused yourself haha. Because I've dealed with americans before for about 2 years, and I seem to have a problem understanding you more than them haha. Thanks man for replying to my posts, because now I can see the standard of mentality and English that SOME monash Malaysia students have. I’ll take note of that when I’m there. Anyway to other Monash students, I'm sorry about this, just want to teach this fella to not be selfish.

And Serlarhc, I kindly suggest you read malaysian history and american history before coming out with your statements that are mainly just your opinions of things. Because the way you see things might be biased by how you grew up and the environment you grew up in, and thats why MIT has an affirmative action. And I believe you didn't grew up in an environment that let's you see thing from both sides of everything

@ Iliveunderwater and SeLrAhC,

alright enough is enough. this is a dedicated monash thread in a bid to help current and prospective monash students. what you guys are doing, is merely generalising malaysian students (both in private and public institutions) into one big lump of category.


however, if you still insist on carrying out this "massacre", i do suggest a brand new thread, away from this one.


anyway i'm in no way affiliated to SeLrAhC, but you are clearly picking on him (from where i'm staying right now). he was just replying to a very simple question i.e. "hows the quality of students there? lol", in which he said "much higher than most other colleges in msia". now why on earth did you even attempt to bring in public universities into the picture?


on the other hand, i do publicly acknowledge that the malaysian sunway campus has still a lot of catching up to do. having studied in the uk before (and now in clayton), i can distinctively observe the marked differences between sunway campus and the australian one. FYI, i did a year in sunway before transferring over to clayton.


one may argue that the sunway campus is still new (bla bla bla) and we ought to give her time to mature and flower et cetera, but at the end of the day, the sunway campus is still supposed to be a (enormous) money making machine for both the sunway group and monash. having said that, not many parents/guardians can afford to splurge that amount of money to send their beloved children to monash (even to the so-called local "version"). needlessly to say, monash sunway has to figure out a way to generate wealth, even if it means that sunway has to accept these crappy students (as described by you guys).


however at the end of the day, only the fittest will survive (or in this case, graduate). hence what is the actual point of debating the caliber/standard of the students being introduced by monash sunway in the first place?

lowering doesnt mean they are failed students... do u have their results or r u quoting based on an article? n the site u quote from is just like an blog. no names ntg. it is a site with no academic value. well, u might just be jealous of ur friend, he might not get super high SAT results, but are urs higher than his? what's ur friends name? or u r just saying baseless statements.

what US is doing doesnt mean it is right, they attack iraq doesnt mean it is right, they jail ppl in guantanamo doesnt mean it is right.

and what MIT is doing is to diversify their students, unlike MARA/ or any public unis which gives short cuts to certain ppl because of their skin colour.

they are allowing minorities not just because of their skin colour but also their results. u think just because ur skin is darker u can enter? think twice. they are allowing the cream of the crop of each community to enter.

i am not saying that lower class dont have the opportunity to move up, just that they have to work harder. if everything is based on merit and not skin colour, the world would be a better place. jpa takes in account of family income, and this provides opportunity for the good and poor students to excel. if u dont get good results, u expect the ppl to give u fundings just because u r poor? u only have urself to blame if u dont do well.

you have ur rights, and you can say what u want, i shall let other ppl judge me and u. and dont u try to belittle me just because u spoke to some american. i live among them for 3 years and will be going back next week.

btw, do u get confused because u dont understand what am i posting or is it your english instead? i wonder...

4 units per semester is the typically recommended combination. however only under special circumstances, one may apply for underload or overload.

you may be paying the equal amount of fees, but towards the final year, you may be bogged down with the third year level units (leaving no room to breathe). this may indirectly affect your overall GPA/average marks with you attempting to juggle between the two majors (especially if they are of a tough nature).


it is a bit of risk management decision. let's say for instance, you wanna be an accountant and you are aiming to work in a top firm (in which, they usually stipulate a minimum GPA of 3.0). therefore in this case, there is clearly no incentive for you, to complete a double major degree; you may as well attempt to take up relatively (note relatively) easier units to boost up your chances of securing those requirements.

Not necessarily. Each major has got a certain number of subjects that you'll need to take. So if you're to double major, what it means is that you'll need to fulfill the required subjects for both majors. You may or may not have anymore slots, depending on your combination.

its up to you really, but think about it, what exactly is a major anyways? its basically to state that you've taken enough subjects from a particular department for you to be considered that you've majored in that particular area. Basically, those in business needs at least one major. However the choice of whether to take on a second major or not also depends on your area of interest. Not doing a second major will give you more room to take other subjects across the different areas, or even from other courses (assuming that you can meet the requirements of the other courses). taking on subjects from IT or Communications had been a rather popular choice before.

Hmm..Choices choices..Pity there's no stats on percentage of Business students who took double majors or anything? Would really love to compare..

As for taking the electives from other faculty, I might as well taking something related to business..Then again,its up to myself to decide..Thanks for the advice..Valuable..

Actually, just to let you see things more clearly, I'm not actually picking on him that much, just that he generalize Monash students "much higher than most other colleges in msia". You can't say that, what he meant might also include public universities that are very reputable. Look at what he thinks of Public Universities students

2nd... in general, well off kids (middle and upper class) do better in their studies... of course top 20% percentile of poor kids would be on par with top 50% of better off kids... whether u like it or not, well off kids have more advantages

4th, public unis are diluted by matriculation stuednts and we all know the standards of these kids

6th? excellent students? come on ... u gotta be kidding me... if u r talking about the top 10% public uni students.. then yes, these kids will do well no matter what they do.. d rest?
*
He's ditching public university students. I mean even you know that Monash students aren't "much higher than most other colleges in msia" because of those extra students for extra money. So how can Monash Malaysia's quality of student be of higher standard than public universities students from UM, USM, UKM, UPM that are top 230-300+ in the world, are very selective and admits mostly excellent students and not any average rich boy because he's rich. That's why this guy really needs to watch what he is saying because people come in here to get information about the colleges/universities they're going into so I just want people to get the correct un-biased facts about things and not useless gossips or rumours that have nothing to do with the courses or etc. The reason why I do pick on him at some parts there is because he's been posting bad rumours about other uni such as MMU as well in the MMU thread and people were complaing about him. I mean, why do you have to spread bad rumours about other universities? This section of this forum is should be about giving information about the more academic stuff of the universities, not gossips or rumours. Just because every uni has some bad kids doesnt mean the whole uni is bad. Just like how Monash has some extra money making kids in it. There were also others I've seen simple posting bad rumours at other university's thread. Go take a look at the Swinburne vs MMU thread and some UPM thread.

for tunku abdul rahman's quote its lim kit siang's website man. That's credible enough. If you want more credible, it's written in Tunku Abdul Rahman's Book called "Political Awakening".

for the rest, like the World University Ranking, its from the Times Higher Education World Ranking Website man.

Nope, that's the thing you just contradicted yourself. First you say what US is doing isn't right, but then you promote that MIT what MIT is doing is to diversify. It shows that you're supporting the US. Come on man, read US history, they're clearly doing that because of the damage that was done for 200 years before they give equal opportunities.

What you say about Mara is clearly baseless and seriously typical non-bumiputra statement that usually comes out of nowhere. It's not something new. What Mara is doing is to diversify the economy, read malaysian history too man. and Mara doesn't accept students that easily man, lately I just called Mara for overseas scholarship asking if I could change course when I wanted to apply for the scholarship then they asked me how much my cgpa was for my diploma and I said 3.5 cgpa, the minimum cgpa for the scholarship was 3.5 and they say that if I want to change course, usually the panel of interviewers would not support me as it is not something I can try just like that. See what I mean? They still look at academic achievements. And the panel of interviewers are not Mara people but lecturers according to their majors and I'm not doing Medic or engineering dude, I'm doing mass communication and I wanted to change to finance, you thought bumis could get a scholarship with 3.5 cgpa? If I could get that scholarship so easily I wouldn't be here talking to you about Monash university and the ice hockey club. Now I can't take SAT nor even fly to the US because even with 3.5cgpa which is considered already quite good, they won't support me, that's why I have to join local universities because MARA take merit into account and they don't support all courses, they only support those critical courses like medic, engineering, finance, account.. Don't believe me, call MARA http://www.mara.gov.my/web/guest/home <-- number's. The indians have their own quotas and Maika to support them. You can also google Mara's Skim Pelajar Cemerlang SPC Scholarship. I have a copy that I keep showing the eligiblity, you want me to show you in person? PM me and I'll give you my hp number and we can meet up. 3.5 CGPA is like the standard minimum eligibility for any other scholarships that are open for all races as well man. You want lower minimum eligibility? 3.4 cgpa minimumTake the MONBUKAGAKUSHO japanese scholarship 2009 http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/652226
My sister didn't even get the MARA scholarship last time back because last time they put the minimum requirements to be 3.8 CGPA for medicine, and she got 3.49 CGPA for the matriculation with her 2nd semester being 3.8 gpa.

MIT affirmative action functions almost just the same.

You seriously haven't answered my question, If I were to fight for equal opportunities in the future, would you actually join me? This is the only way to prove that you actually care for others that are poor.

Not just that, my chinese friend just got Rm600 000k scholarship to study in the US and as you may not know he is not even that poor to begin with, he had money to go to the US on his own but because he was an excellent student in my school last time, JPA gave him a scholarship, and let me tell you this, during his JPA scholarship meeting, there were 6 students that were given scholarships to go to the US and ALL of them were non-bumiputras. Surprise? They do take merit in account. You wanna meet him? I seriously can intro him to you when he comes back for break. Maybe you're jealous because you didn't get any scholarship so you blame MARA or JPA as being racist when they're actually just being like MIT. So you wanna meet my friend?

A lot of the scholarships in Malaysia are given to poorer kampung people as well, my other friend who is under JPA scholarship to study in Australia lately was sent to study in australia along with a bunch Malaysian students that are mostly kampung people until he got really sick of them cause he was from the city.

Like I said, Malaysia is a country ruled by the people who were "conquered" and resources stole and society divided into different races by the British Divide and Rule Strategy. They even divided india into 3, bangladesh, india and pakistan. America is a land of the red indians that was conquered by the europeans including british people. Means the america you see now is ruled by the "Conquerors". So you can't expect Malaysia to use the same affirmative action. If you're a smart person that cares about the poor, and knows history, you would think about this.

If there was no what you called as "shorter cuts" as in no quotas for the Malays and Indians and no MARA for the Malays nor Maika for the indians in Malaysia back since then, then Malaysia right now would have a few cities filled with very rich chinese communities and the majority of the rest of Malaysia would be filled with the Malaysian version of skinny african kids mainly from Malay and Indian ethnicities as a result from the british divide and rule strategy and their unequal opportunities given to the races back in the days of the British Colonization. Is that what you've been dreaming off? Totally heartless. Read up on Malaysian History and American History, Seriously man.

Get confused because of my english? You want me to get my american friend here to clarify that for you? laugh.gif

Ok SelrahC, I don't wanna flood this thread with arguments, I just want you to start knowing the proper facts and stop spreading useless information around here and also to care about the poor people. Just because you're rich does not mean that you don't need to help the poor. This is about defending justice and giving others opportunities. And I'm not talking about this just because I want my rights or anything, I dont even have any rights to claim. I already have my rights as a bumiputra if I want some special juice. If only you could think the same.

So now I'm gonna save you that one last post for you give me your best proof to counter me regarding ALL the things and EVERY single thing that I have said and I'm not gonna fight back. And you must have good history knowledge as well for your counter-attack. The opportunity is all yours man. Let the people decide which information is more truthful and selfless.

I agree with that
Take one example...Maths and Science to be taught in English
In order to improve english, they should increase the numbers of english period in school instead of immediately introducing maths and science in english

Hello I have a Serious Question

Is it true that when a student repeats any unit for engineering in Monash 10% to 20% of the marks get cut? Just because he is repeating? Suppose If i get 75% 10% will be cut and my mark will be 65%?

Is the Overall Marks cut by 10%?

or is the Exam Marks get cut by 10%??

overall mark i guess, that's the rule but i dont know whether they practice it. only if u skip the internal marking then they will cut 10%, if u redo the whole course i think there's no penalthy. i have no idea.

You check the list/max amount of ptptn grants from their websites. It varies from course, etc.

Anyway, anyone got the entrance scholarship here? I want to ask if they will be interviewing the applicants and can I take the entrance scholarship together with ptptn?
Cause ptptn is not enough to cover the tuition fees >_<

u can ask nezzy i think he got it.. yes, they will interview n u have to write an essay, but that is only for formality, u will still get your scholarship based on your results.

i think you can apply for both as 1 is a loan d other is a scholarship...

Hehe, anyway...can you still get ptptn loan with the scholarship?
I'm still not sure cause some scholarship doesn't let you take financial aid..
PTPTN doesn't help ppl with scholarship right? but this is a tuition fee waiver, kinda like discount, *sigh* I'm waiting for ptptn reply sleep.gif

------
btw, did you send it together with the course application form to monash, or just the scholarship application to the finance department?
another one, apply after you get the offer letter or the other way around?

Hello, would like to ask Business Students that has already taken the course marketing something.

Tomorrow is my marketing mid semester test, and it requires some login thing to take the test that was given from the prescribed textbook.

The textbook that i bought was second hand, and it didn't include any login name of any sort.

Would i still be able to take the test? I studied really hard for marketing, and i really wish to take this test.

Thank you.

I wonder where have all the Aussie Monash students went to biggrin.gif
Just had my Monetary Theory test 2 days ago, not too bad.
It seems that the units at Caulfield are harder to do.
Example : Cost Info sweat.gif
There were 2 assgs for Cost Info in Sunway and the ratio was 30/70.
But in Caulfield, there's one mid-term test and assg.
Test is 30% and the assg is 10% giving it a ratio of 40/60.
And from what I heard from my fren, the test was a KILLER doh.gif rclxub.gif
Luckily I did it dy and got a HD. I doubt I will be able to replicate my results here laugh.gif

There is this case, which i think is common for monash students in msia and oz trading assignment answer.

from my fren, he found that there is quota for giving HD and D to business students. His lecturer told the class he can only give xx amount HD and D from the head of department from oz.

Kinda sad, his assignment got credit in msia but distinction in clayton..

does monash offer major in economics? macroeconomics to be specific. if so, how is the quality?

There is a major in Economics.
But Macroeconomics is only part of the major.
You will be doing other stuff like Labour Econs, Manererial Econs, Trade Finance bla bla bla ......

Hello I am planning to go to Monash Clayton campus next year and I need to live on residence. Anyone could give me advice on what the best hall is to choose? Which one is most social/has parties? I don't want a boring and quiet hall....Also which one has the most asians? I heard Richardson is full of asians...And I don't want that either because I'm an international malaysian student who wants to get to know people from many backgrounds also...

Please help that would be great!

i would suggest you to take quite hall. after all, if you like party, you can walk/go to the party hall. but when you want to study/sleep/rest you know your hall is quite and comfy. if you were to stay at a busy hall, good luck in finding time to rest/study

just joking...

but it is not easy studying away from ur home country. to those in aus, u will not only be educated academically but as well as adepting in a diff environment. learning to make do with the available resources, mingling around with ppl of other races, learning to take pub transport, there's so much that you need to learn besides the books in college. in msia it is easier, because we have so many things since we were kids. also dont forget the phycological effects of lonely less, cultural shock as well as home sick.

the monash university in sunway is dealing exclusively with tertiary studies.

it doesn't deal with pre-university courses i.e. in your case, MUFY.

nope. they do not offer law in the sunway campus. reason cited is due to the expensive cost to stock up law books and materials.

they only offer business law as a major to the business and commerce degree.

as for the australian counterpart, law is primarily offered in the clayton campus.

the word twinning, is not applicable to monash; it is either a transfer or an exchange.

so there is no such nonsense as 2 + 2 et cetera

ya, it is available in business school. You can take it as your major.

fyi, buscom is encouragin their students to take double majors. for more info, it is better u pay a visit to monash to find out more as they change from time to time.

i guess mufy fee has raised up to rm18k++ for the whole course.

it is quite hurdle if you are from utar foundation. The best way is to bring along your result and syallabus outline to monash to find out what is the requirement for u in order to enter monash. but i would say it is certainly hard

also is NP only applicable for 1st year students? in 2nd 3rd and 4th year no np? if so how  many units in 1 sem??

i dun think np is applied for 1st or 2nd yr student. Indeed jst for 3rd yr student. Monash in M'sia is really funny. They seem overwrite the rules of Monash in Aus.

I heard my friend from aussie saying that Monash Australia does apply NP for 1-3 yr students. However, Monash M'sia has changed to applicable only to 3rd yr student.

I would suggest u to visit yr school office to check out on this matter!

wow, hostel ar? quite costly wor... better u take some time to survey and find yr room within sunway resident area smile.gif

well, for the food science courses, the mark allocation and exam and so on, u may log onto monash website and check the subjects offered for yr major. Diff sub diff condition smile.gif


Added on May 28, 2009, 5:36 pm

i dun think np is applied for 1st or 2nd yr student. Indeed jst for 3rd yr student. Monash in M'sia is really funny. They seem overwrite the rules of Monash in Aus.

I heard my friend from aussie saying that Monash Australia does apply NP for 1-3 yr students. However, Monash M'sia has changed to applicable only to 3rd yr student.

I would suggest u to visit yr school office to check out on this matter!

i second the underlined statement. the hostel provided by the sunway group is a total rip off i have to say.

furthermore, i loathed the idea of sharing the room with someone else (or in some cases, 4); almost non-existence privacy.

oh i see. are you majoring in economics or an independent degree itself i.e. bachelor of economics?

because as far i know, bachelor of economics is only offered in clayton (can someone verify my statement?)

but since you mentioned bachelor of commerce, it is likely that you are planning to major in it?

Credit transfer oh Credit transfer..

Anyway..Long story..

So I graduated from TARC..So applied at Monash..So for credit transfer u need those examination results with the CGPA and all.Of all the 6 semester results, I only have 5 as the last semester would have to wait..So I downloaded the 6th semester result that was on the TARC website..That result slip doesnt contain my cgpa or GPA..Because I was in a rush so I sent it along with the other necessary documents..

Two weeks passed without any calls or emails..My friend who applied as well was worried so he made a phone call as I was very busy with part time work. He asked the PSO ppl(Who are they?) and the people just said they rejected my application.My friend asked them on why never contact or send at least an email, the person replied: 'Ask him to call us'. So Monash dont inform people that they reject their application and made them worried..?

Part 2

So My friend called me and told me about it..I was very shocked and made a phone call to the PSO and they transfered my call to the Business School people.. She told me the reason I got rejected is because my CGPA was 2.61 where the minimum requirement is 2.7. The weird thing is that 2.61 is my CGPA for the 5th semester. So I asked her a few times: Is the 2.61 CGPA was the CGPA for all the six semesters? She said yes..And then I hang up the phone..

Reached back home and TARC finally sent me the last semester slip and my final CGPA is 2.83 which means I've definitely meet the minimum of the minimum requirements to be admitted to Monash..So why are they telling me my CGPA was 2.61?

I asked the girl whether is it because my last semester result does not contain the CGPA and I asked whether I can send the last semester slip that contains my final CGPA..She said no..

I dunno what else to say about this..Just felt disappointed cause of this..

Looks like you do indeed have a strong case for entering Monash just that you were shut out.

So what can I do? Submit the 6th sem slip with the CORRECT cgpa? I think I need to write a letter or something as well right..

But my friend who made the call asked the Business dept as well on how many subjects are being exempted..She replied by saying that TARC diploma is not recognized by Monash and maximum only two subjects..He was accepted but have to start from first year..Just saying what my friend told me..

As for my case, I kinda felt miserable. If my cgpa is really 2.6, then I have no choice but to accept fate la.. But my cgpa is 2.83. So I shoudlnt give up hope on Monash eh?

You can try showing them the slip with the correct CGPA and make your point that you actually DID meet the requirements.
I'm sure they want your money more than anything tongue.gif
As for your fren, he's right.
Monash doesn't recognize TARC diploma so you might have to start over again ......

Called Monash today..THe PSo girl transferred my call to the Business Faculty staff,the name I'm not gonna mention for now..

She told me I got rejected coz of my CGPA. After that I asked her again whether is the CGPA calculated from ALL 6 sems..She still says yes..After that I told her that my real CGPA was 2.8. She asked me why I did not send that result slip that shows my real CGPA, I replied her back by saying that they never give me a single call to inform me that my 6th sem slip that I sent does not contain the CGPA.. And that the IT school that my friend applied to gave him a call, 2 WEEKS ago..!!..

The girl quickly told me to bring in the real examination slip and then hung up the phone..I was like:'WTH'. This is not a way to treat a prospective student. Now I'm wondering whether they are being prejudice against ppl from TARC. At least if she replied me properly I would still accept..

Part 2..

Moments later PSO called me and told me that my 6th sem slip does not contain the CGPA, asked me to send the real thing. This was the same thing that my friend received two weeks ago. And they called me now? WTH.. So after that I blasted the PSO like there's no tomorrow,saying how unprofessional and disappointing Monash treated me..In the end she said that she'll make sure that the application will go through something like that.

She also told me that the credit transfer thingy is done by the ppl from Sunway Campus while I was being told way back from the start that they have to send it to the one in Australia to certify..This is a big blunder and mistake man..

Sorry if I offended your uni or anything..Im gonna bring my 6th sem slip tomorrow and see how it goes..maybe they really wont recognize my TARC diploma but the IT school doing his credit transfer..

The most important thing is that they wont simply get away easily by committing this mistake..

if i were you, stop making calls and go there in person.
I would actually advise you to go straight to the business faculty building, (Building 6) and see the head of the faculty. sometimes i find some of the people there a bit, ignorant.

still remembered how one tutor of mine actually left my assignment on the table and walked off. luckily some guy from the next class called me and told me it was there.
went to find the unit director straight and bang kau the tutor on it. damn irresponsible of him to leave it behind when he told me to put it there on the table.

depends on the degree i suppose.
cause maybe the subjects u did in TARC are not related to those in monash business
you don't expect them to give u exemption for something you didn't do right?
i guess they have a reasonable cause for doing it

@Eisenmeteor.

I agree with MoNny that you should have went there in person instead. Whenever it comes to things like this, never settle them over the phone. Another alternative would be to email because everything will be in black and white.

Back when I was transferring from Business to Pharmacy, I went there everyday to check and make sure that my transfer/appeal letter was going the right direction. Thankfully, 2 working days later I got a confirmed call from the Pharmacy faculty saying that I got accepted and made it just in time for their orientation...

as for the rude lady, reveal her name and i will get things straight... that's not a way to treat any1 by being rude.. monash is not just any degree factory and we dont have place for rude ppl

On a side note, any Business Law students here?

Any idea where we can get the sample solutions for the various pass year questions? Especially 2004 and 2005.

Thanks.

mann... i cannot remember where are my notes already. i passed it to a friend and she said she lost track of it.

but it has all the solutions and those mind maps pointing to the correct common law cases/statutes for each unique scenario

you should be hanging out in the library closer towards the examination date, and approach random students who are currently taking the unit as well.

i compiled most of my notes by doing that.

I'm not sure if this question is raised numerous times before.

How do I get to Monash at Subang Jaya?
First through KTM, then any buses heading there?

Thanks

I made another thread about this question since I did not see the Monash thread. Worth asking again, eh?

Anyone studying in Business faculty successfully enrolled into one of the Business programmes despite not taking Math for their A Levels? I really, really want to study Management and International Business but they told me that a good grade for A Level Economics simply won't cut it.

Is there really no way to appeal, or has anyone been successful in doing so? ohmy.gif

Sorry to interrupt once more,

I need to confirm if the KTM station is Subang Jaya KTM station?
The exact name of the station is?

I've been to the station, but dont seem to remember the bus station there.

MaxReddevil : I'm doing CPA as I am currently finishing my final year in Monash Australia. According to the information provided by the people over here, as long as I complete my Accounting major ( which I have done so ) and 3 other units which are : Company Law, Tax Law & Auditing then I will be exempted from major parts of CPA. But they didn't specify how much is major, how much is the other minor.

playoff90 : Core units are the 6 compulsory first year units. So you failed Micro ? Re-mark is pretty hard to get you up coz bear in mind, your paper has been marked by 2-3 diff markers to arrive at a fail, not a single marker.

I would like to ask if I fail a unit and pass the remaining 7 units for first year can I still advance to the second year?
For eg, I failed engineering dynamics but I plan to do chemical engineering in the 2nd year.

I believe you would need 48 credit points to advance to second year . If you failed engineering dynamics then you won't get the 6 credit points required from the subject .

Thats what I thought too but I went and ask a lady from the engineering department this morning and she said it was ok becuz dynamics is not a core/recommended unit for chemical engineering.
She said most likely it shouldn't be a problem if I pass the remaining 4 units for the upcoming semester to proceed to the 2nd year.
Her answer was very vague, I need some clarification here.
Thx men

Anyways from the Offer Documents Booklet page 5
"Unless you have been formally granted exemption , you will be required to pass eight units/subjects in order to complete the first year of study - four in each semester . Each unit/subject is assigned 6 credit points so that apass in the first year will result in the accumulation of 48 credit ponts"
TBH i'm not really sure myself , you might want to ask the first year coordinator.

Hey guys, sorry for the noob question, but I'm planning to apply for the February Intake for Chemical Engineering.

How do I apply? Online, or through form or what?

I've tried looking through the Monash website (well, Monash Malaysia at least) and either I must really suck at searching for stuff, or there's no guidelines on how to apply.

Some help please?

Thanks.

What's wrong with the parking? You complaining about the unpaid one (forest) or the paid one?

Paid one is fine by me. Whichever time I go there's always a parking. Just that have to walk a bit.

I'm talking bout the unpaid forest parking of course..
Other Universities in malaysia that I have been, have proper parking.
They have so much free space but can't make it to good use







The paid one is fine.. I always used that when i took ALevels at Sunway in 2003 when Monash was affiliated. No problem whatsoever


By the way, which paid one r u talking about? Inside sunway college?

Although the forest is nearer to my faculty, I'd rather walk further and pay the Rm2. Can't stand the insects and mud in the forest.

And yeah, unless they're planning to build the clinical school there, it's a bloody waste of space.

I'm talking bout Monash. smile.gif

Although the forest is nearer to my faculty, I'd rather walk further and pay the Rm2. Can't stand the insects and mud in the forest.

And yeah, unless they're planning to build the clinical school there, it's a bloody waste of space.

haha bro u walk all the way from there?
that's pretty far


They should do a shaded parking.. at least for lecturers..
Or underground parking just below the building.. just like shopping centers


I don't mind paying RM5 or 7 everyday.. but it's gotta be near and shaded... not just park in the jungle like that. That resembles a kampung uni style in other underdeveloped countries in africa

Well, Monash is always.... and will always be a money-making business.

Current students who do not have a entrance scholarship will now have to work to achieve an average of 90 marks over 2 CONTINUOUS semesters in order to obtain a 100% scholarship, while having an average of 85 marks over 2 semesters will only yield you a 50% scholarship.

That's just not it, in order to maintain your scholarship, for the 100% fully paid one you need to get an average of 85 per semester and an average of 80 per semester for the 50% scholarship.

Good luck.

I would rather suggest you try to apply for the Kuok Foundation scholarship instead with a 0% loan repayment.

I think you've got the wrong parking
From the main road, go past Monash Uni(Monash Uni on your left) and turn left at the traffic light. It's a very huge open parking lot which will cost you RM 2 per day. Not really far from the campus unless you park at the very far edge.

Well you sure got that point right.
My housemate transferred from Taylors to Monash and she only got partial exemption.
She had to re-do units like Micro Econs and Business Law which pretty much sucks.

I'm talking bout the unpaid forest parking of course..
Other Universities in malaysia that I have been, have proper parking.
They have so much free space but can't make it to good use
The paid one is fine.. I always used that when i took ALevels at Sunway in 2003 when Monash was affiliated. No problem whatsoever
By the way, which paid one r u talking about? Inside sunway college?

at least for help college they do not have stupid problems like "sorry all our season passes are finished"..

i think so.. lol... the free carpark is considered as undeveloped so thats why they didnt charge any money for it
since the benefit is free parking, one shouldnt complain.

So basically she did both law and microecons in Taylor's UniSA program and STILL had to do them in Monash? How many exemptions did she get, 4 out of 6? That does kinda suck. unsure.gif

Hello guys, this is a self-indulgent/confused/worried post. Any form of sensible answer will be greatly appreciated biggrin.gif

So the story goes as this, im currently doing sam in taylors and my internal results aren't exactly the greatest thing on earth. Then again, its not all doom and gloom. Um, I would say slightly above average, what are four Bs and a C account for these days anyway?

Regardless, monash has always been top of my list as i prefer staying in malaysia for a few more years with the option of moving abroad if i meet the criteria. and after much research and stuff, its still quite confusing no? i mean as in the requirements and stuff to enter uni.

im heading towards the placement center this friday so i'd like to prepare a few things before i meet the counselor.

I know it is written that 75% is the minimum requirement for entrance but what would be the minimal tertiary score to "more or less" safely guarantee acceptance? Also, are there any form of special requirements such as an A in English, or a B in Math? i know it all comes down to choice of course but lets keep it general. Also, when should i submit my application?

Sorry, if the post annoyed anyone. My trials are due next month and im a worried sock right now. Thanks in advance for anyone who's willing to give a heads up smile.gif

Not sure about the entrance qualification, but if you can make it you might be able to be exempted for some units in year 1. you can transfer any time you want actually, as long as you meet the academic qualifications, which isn't that high lah i think.

Personally I don't think that Network security related courses are suitable at the undergrad level, as such type of work involved revolves mainly around working experience with networks. And there's no way that its possible to cram enough content into a 3 year degree for such specializations. Hence its better to take something more fundamental for your undergrad degree, then look for professional certifications for the specializations.

From KLCC, I guess you can take the LRT to Kelana Jaya, then switch to the feeder bus that'll drop you off at the Pyramid. Correct me if I'm a bit off on this though, as I've not taken the feeder bus in years.

Monash Malaysia is a full campus, hence the term 'twinning programme' does not really apply. However for courses that are offered in multiple campuses, you do have the option to transfer between campuses. But check with the relevant school for details on this, as each school will have different requirements in order for you to do the transfer.

not sure how it works for the engineering school (but i can safely assume that it is the same across all schools).

yes, the certificate and transcript may print "monash university", but name of the degree and unit codes will give away your campus origins with ease.

i will quote my school and degree as an example.

in sunway, the business degree is called bachelor of business and commerce and its units are denoted by AFW, BTW et cetera.

over in clayton, commanding a slightly higher entry requirement, the equivalent is, bachelor of commerce and its unit are represented by AFC, BTC et cetera.

i was in at a career seminar, organised by monash university itself, not long ago and a few reputable firms came to present talks and due to recessions, one of them, for the first time, is actually distinguishing applicants by campuses.

The business school was one huge mess before, with each campus having their own differences. So far for FIT, its a bit easier, especially for Comp Sci, where the subjects are exactly the same, with the same subject code as well as in Clayton.

1) monash will ask you for your diploma units syllabus, in this case. they'll see if they can exempt you from any one or more subjects. but i had a case with a family friend's daughter who also came into monash for degree after her diploma. she had to start from year 1 like everyone else though because they didn't find her units syllabus up to their standard. so you see, it varies. for what unit(s) you get exempted from, you'll have to wait and see what monash says.

2) yes, it is possible to transfer to clayton campus for third year. many of my classmates did that. however, the units required for malaysian and australian campuses to undertake can be quite different. so you'll have to check and see if in your second year here, you're required to take a different set of subjects from the others. some subjects may be a prerequisite to a unit down under, but not here in malaysia. if you're intending to change campus later on, be forewarned and be prepared.

3) the certs are the same. they don't write campus name there. as for academic transcripts, the format is the same, but i cant remember if they write the campus names there.

as long as you meet the minimum requirement, monash will take you in. they're more business minded than quality conscious. but if you're under minimum requirement (but not too far away), most likely you'll be put on probation for 1 semester which you must score distinction average to continue. this was back in my time. i don't know what's the requirement now. but the probation thing is still on.

1) monash will ask you for your diploma units syllabus, in this case. they'll see if they can exempt you from any one or more subjects. but i had a case with a family friend's daughter who also came into monash for degree after her diploma. she had to start from year 1 like everyone else though because they didn't find her units syllabus up to their standard. so you see, it varies. for what unit(s) you get exempted from, you'll have to wait and see what monash says.

2) yes, it is possible to transfer to clayton campus for third year. many of my classmates did that. however, the units required for malaysian and australian campuses to undertake can be quite different. so you'll have to check and see if in your second year here, you're required to take a different set of subjects from the others. some subjects may be a prerequisite to a unit down under, but not here in malaysia. if you're intending to change campus later on, be forewarned and be prepared.

3) the certs are the same. they don't write campus name there. as for academic transcripts, the format is the same, but i cant remember if they write the campus names there.
as long as you meet the minimum requirement, monash will take you in. they're more business minded than quality conscious. but if you're under minimum requirement (but not too far away), most likely you'll be put on probation for 1 semester which you must score distinction average to continue. this was back in my time. i don't know what's the requirement now. but the probation thing is still on.
*
Lets say the minimum req for engineering is 80 and i get 78.8, do u think i'll get any conditional offer(probation) from monash?

Thanks.

Question : If you only get partial exemptions from your credit transfer, will you get to do "short semesters" for those subjects which are not exempted?

It would really suck if I have to do one WHOLE semester just because I don't get full exemptions. =/

Dude, if you get partial exemptions means certain subjects you're exempted and certain subjects you're not.

You don't get partial exemptions for one unit... that'd be a lil bit stupid imo biggrin.gif

So... are u coming over? xD

btw, i advise everyone to switch off their heaters and open the windows asap.

the only "short semesters" available in monash are those offered during winter/summer vacation periods.

furthermore, not all units are available, and logically only those sought after, will be.

Bachelor of Business and Commerce (Honours) - Sunway, Berwick, Gippsland, Peninsula, South Africa

Caulfield and Clayton need 70% minimum just to apply.
The rest, ada $, ada place ;D

There are also scholarships available. Its quite easy to get em at sunway (from what i've heard). My gf's sis got one full summore ;D

my parents are hinting to me that i ought to reconsider another year (or so) in honours or masters.

of course i'm more inclined to honours since it is more prestigious and shorter in duration.

the 70% average is applicable to the major that your interested in; taking an average of your major's second and third year level units. for example, if you are up for a finance honour programme, your second and third year level, financed based units have to make up an average of at least 70% to be eligible.

this one, i'm pretty sure.

What do you mean by that? Tutors? You can contact them via their emails if you want to see them. Or just pop by their office and check out their consultation hours.

If you mean like you want extra tuition, I don't know if there are ppl in sunway who do it. There are plenty in caulfield and clayton though.

Like all those 3rd and 4th year students or masters students do give out private tuition for like $15-30 per hour depending on their qualification.
Even those high scorers like those who get 90+ for all their papers, they do give out tuition. I'm planning to do that next semester if I get another string of HDs again xD

I noticed that monash business and commerce degree doesn't come with honours. Would that devalue the student's cert? Without doing 1 year of honours, would u still get things like first class honours, second class upper in your cert? I have seen recruitment ads stating minimum requirement of second class upper, without an honours would that place me in a lower position than those who did uk twinning programme? (UK degrees always come with honours)

This is because the Australian and the UK definition of honors is totally different.

In the Australian system, the extra honors year is not something that you can just go and enroll in, but is something that is offered to you only by invitation depending on how well you do in your undergrad years (usually the 2nd and 3rd year are taken into account).

Exactly.

khai, for a better understanding, Azarimy did a "Did you know?" thread on this issue.

Honours from Aus/NZ and Honours from UK

Hi,

I've looked around the classifieds for jobs in Singapore. Generally, they just require that you have a degree in Pharmacy (some would want the degree from a reputable uni) and to be registered with the Pharmacy Board of Singapore.

Though I have no black and white proof or confirmation on this, I believe you can become a pharmacist in Singapore.

meet the required average, stipulated to you before the commencement of the first semester.

the average for business is typically 65%. however the school of business will not jot this down in black and white. because if they do, they will have to adhere to it accordingly.

hence if your average is somehow close to 65%, they may grant you a permanent enrollment (discretion applies)

if you're asking about the Bachelor of IT, then I can't really tell much difference, apart from it being known as the course offered to those who don't qualify for the Bachelor of Comp Sci, or those who had dropped out of the Bachelor of Comp Sci.

If you're asking about the Bachelor of Comp Sci, then first read this to see the difference between IT and Comp Sci.

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=14992192

Now, there's very few places actually offering a proper Comp Sci course, and Monash is one of them. Check out the links in that post as well, especially this one: http://www.cs4fn.org/fundamentals/

Keep in mind though that Comp Sci at Monash tends to have up to a 30% dropout rate by the end of the first year.

erm .. for mine it depends on the number of hours .. so depends on how many hours the lecturer need you to tutor..

i'm not too sure about other students .. if you are doing postgrad you shld know quite alot of people teaching already right? you can ask them and see if the rates are diff..

host
* Dato' Seri Tony Fernandes ~ Malaysian entrepreneur and founder of Tune
Air
* Garry Kasparov ~ Russian living legend of chess
* And more (to be announced)

The whole summit experience is designed for leaders in business, media,
and government to engage with youths like you. It is about you making
yourselves heard, and for them to listen to you, to help you create

Thanks for the heads-up. Are there any other reputable engineering private institutes in Malaysia? Will be applying with A levels.

Oh by the way, what does the '10' mean on 'prerequisites '?

That means the minimum score you should get in your A-levels is a B-C-C.
You get 5 points for an A, 4 for a B, you get the rest.

And by the way, if you're pretty certain you want to take up an engineering course and you're pretty sure you're gonna do it here or in Australia, you may want to look at Australian Matriculation or Monash University Foundation Year (MUFY) since they are 1 year courses as compared to the 18 months of A levels.

I myself took A levels, and have no regrets whatsoever about taking it, except now I'm one semester behind people that took the 1 year foundation courses.
And just in case you're wondering, you can still apply to other non-Australian universities even if you take Australian Matriculations or MUFY, no doubt about it.

The thing is, I'm kinda interested in universities from UK/Hongkong/Singapore that offer engineering courses. Yes, I know Ausmat/SAM allows students to gain entry to non-Aussie universities but the scholarships priorities are given to A-levels students right? No offence to Ausmat students.

By the way, I plan to pursue a career in aeronautical engineering in Monash or RMiT but the fees will definitely pull a strain on my parents' wallet.

Actually, the scholarships depend on the respective universities themselves. For Monash, each of the various qualifications have their own minimum requirement in order to qualify for the entrance scholarships. i.e for A-levels you need at least 3A's, for Ausmat the minimum could be 99.5 or something.
Other than the entrance scholarship, you could still try for their merit scholarships.

March and July are the usual intakes as far as I know.
I heard this year business students won't be able to go for the exchange program. Not sure why.

No they don't. Monash values privacy highly.

The results will be given only to the person who's name is enrolled in Monash. In fact, even if your parents are to go over there to demand for your results, their request will not be entertained.

But do take note that this can be abused too.

Hi all,

Anyone here who's in the MSc or Preliminary MSc course???
How's the professors and lecturers? Mind giving your opinions on this?

I'm currently deciding whether to apply for it so any feedback would be appreciated.

Are you transferring from the Sunway campus?
If so, can go to student center and ask for application forms.
Then just fill in the form and pass back to the staffs at the student center along with your results.
Do take note that the requirements (base on results) to transfer to Clayton and Caufield campus are a little stricter than the other campuses in Aussie.
For more information you can actually ask the staffs at student center ^^; they offer a lot of help when I am applying for mine some years back.
Hope that helps~

i transferred from sunway to the clayton campus for my second year, early this february (2009).

i'm currently doing bachelor of commerce (0179) and hence if you do require any information, help, clarification et cetera, please not hesitate to ask (either PM me or Ping! (ID name: nokia2003) if you are an iPhone or iPod touch user) and i will endeavor to clear your reservations. i'm also more than happy to answer non-academic questions.

my brother is too, residing in clayton (engineering) and should you have any questions with regard to that degree, i can direct them to him, for you.

i have been so bogged down with my internship, that i hardly ever got time to patronise LYN anymore cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

hope to see you guys in australia, the next academic year! nod.gif nod.gif nod.gif

Hey mates. I'm back in Msia from Australia.

Problem is, My Samsung F480 can't be used coz its from "3" and so... how do i deal with it?

Friends said call or go to "3" and unlock it before getting back to Msia. Yeah. Thats a big help. Doh, I'm already BACK!

So, they said go to "3"s website which I did, but theres nothing about phone unlocking.

Any experts in this area? I really need that phone, I got no other phone here.

Thanks mate.

your best bet is to ring "3"'s customer service.

unlocking can be done remotely and i'm pretty sure "3" can help you with regard to that.
