Graduated with MBBS Officially..So happy..



It has finally come to the end of all the studying, writing portfolio and waiting; waiting for the result at least...

It was a time of happy and sorrow both at the same time, as we all will be leaving from IMU for our own journey soon somewhere inside Msia..

Waiting for the result wasn't something enjoyable. I was waking up early in the 5am morning and ended up waiting for hours before i can start driving from PJ to Sban. And, i think i reached there quite early, almost the first to be there for the result, in fact too early. some of them only came after 10:30am or 11am.. Grrrrr....

The result was released about 11:15 am in the morning whereby we were allowed to collect our trascript from the AAD. After that was the waiting for the Declaration Oath to become doctors. It was full of inspiring and wisdom speech from the new dean and some of the other lecturers.


Then, there was a small "feast" for all of us to enjoy before we all left. Throughtout the session, there was a lot of photo taking with friends and lecturer.

Honestly, it still seems like a dream to me. I still remember seeing the seniors graduated happily, congratulating each others a few years ago. We were wondering when will that day come for us. But, look, we are here... with MBBS and Dr title in front

5 Year for One Day of Exam

We have been anticipating this exam for so long, finally the 5 year has come to an end for another new journey to begin with...

Preparing for this final exam isn't easy at all as any case could have come out for the long case and the one and only one case determine our pass or fail. Portfolio discussion also need to be go through again a few times to make sure we do not do any gross mistake or miss and important stuff...

Furthermore, the exam is after the chinese new year which makes everything tougher. I have expected not to study much stuff at home during the chinese new year period. What to be blamed? myself of course, there were just too many temptations at home. The TV, the nice environment to sleep and rest..everything is just so against studying.

Two days before the exam, i moved down to PJ area in my uncle house for preparation of the exam and also for the study group..ANd, luckily that was what happened orelse i might just screwed up in the exam..at least i can finish 1 round of study.. Though throughout this few days my bowel weren't helping out me, i was still fine except that i need to go to the toilet several times a day for my IBS. Even when i was staying in the hotel which cost me rm110 for a night, it never left me. Thought it has leaved me but i was proved wrong..haha

Exam day was the most stressful time for all of us, i was scheduled in the afternoon session for the exam.. was in so much of hoping that i wouldn't get a "combo" case which usually has 4-5 diagnoses and makes the history everywhere...

Anyway, i got a patient with liver cirrhosis and UGIB for that day. Prof Y and Dr C from BP were two of my examiner whereelse i got Dato J and Prof N for my portfolio discussion. Both the session went quite smoothly except a few lagging as i was wondering what they were trying to ask me..

Around 4pm, it finally come to the end..what a relief everytime we come out from the exam room..i can see different faces of either confused, happy and partially sad coming out from the rooms. ANyway, 5 year of study for 1 day of exam; that's what we have for the day..
