The way I see it - if your daddy have money - right about 300k - do a diploma first then go on and do a degree . After your first degree go overseas to do Graduate Medical School .

Alternatively - do a diploma - do a degree overseas- PR there and then do Graduate Medical school - slash your expenses to half.

If no money - do A levels and score damn well - make sure you know what to answer in an interview . Never say "I want to be a doctor so that I can help people". That one is a BIG NO NO. Seen people kenna the Big "So you want to help people - why not be a social worker " retort.

Thx. My plan is to do M.B.B.S in NUS leh. After that, I am blur liao, dunno go where le. Can recommand some medical school?

Do A level and remember you have only one chance. If you blow it . Bye bye MBBS in NUS.

You can go to Australia and do an undergrad med degree in University of Melbourne, UWA or Newcastle University. That's your option which will cost you 300k for living expenses plus tuition plus textbooks.

UK degree - 500k especially if it is in london.

American uni - u need a degree and then do a pre med - around 500k

Have to ask yourself why you are so interested in medicine and whether you can actually follow it thru financially.

Can I join the Addmission in the next year?

What admission?

You need A levels ,or if your parents have money - they can enrol you in those 1 year pre-uni courses in selected universities like Melbourne University and Sydney University . That also means more money .

Oh ya , to get into med - you need to get all 85 and above for Trinity College pre uni course in University of Melbourne to get a very good chance into med school. If I remembered right , one guy got 85 in physics, chem, bio but 70+ in english and maths for trinity - he could not go into Med School. The only 2 in his class who got into Med School scored 90%+ in all subjects.

What I means is, if I am not successful, can I apply for MBBS again the following year.

By the way, thay guy very suay. Same for me, I couldn't do as well as him. I intend apply using a diploma leh. What are the chances?

fymk SG

For NUS ....virtually zit if you use a diploma frankly. Even if they did , you need to be top 1% with marks never below Distinction for all subjects.

I don't think so. NUS only gives you one shot at the interview from what I know. That is your one chance . Fail it and bye bye NUS.

Why are you so eager to enter NUS Medicine right after your diploma?

You can always pursue a basic degree first (e.g. Life science, pharmacy, chemistry, bioengin, etc). After you get your Bachelor, you can apply for the Duke NUS graduate medical school. At the end of the day you still get a medical degree.

You might as well change to TP Biomedical. I don't know what TP did to get NUS to recognise their diploma for admission into Chemistry and Food Science. Mad

Damn!

He'll probably turn 30 first before he becomes a full-fledged doctor. Laughing
