PMS Matching Results (Update)

Greetings fellow batchmates!

Quite a number of people have asked me about the PMS results already, so I figured it would be best for me to just put it up on the batch blog. As of last Wednesday (18 May 2011), I received confirmation from Miss Imelda that the PMS matching results will be ready by the end of May. That may mean some time next week, or if it's really cutting close to the deadline it could even fall on any day of our first 2 days of EOS5. I understand some rather have it before and some rather have it after exams, but i really apologize because I can't do anything about the timing at all. Dr JPJ had set a deadline for the AAD to finish the Matching Results by end of the month so they are all scrambling to finish it by that deadline, pity her too because I know she is trying her best. So the date of release might not be on everyones' "good side", but there is really nothing we can do about it..hope you all can still focus on preps for exams at hand. :)

Cheers,

Eldwin

P.S. As soon as I know anything, the first thing I will do is update the blog and FB it. You have my word!

M109 MSK/CNS Summative

Greetings M109!

I hope ya'll had a nice transient rest today after the summative paper in the morning. Anyways, good or bad let's forget that small fish which got away and focus on the even BIGGER fish i.e. EOS5 yeah? XD

Tay and I spent a few hours after summative to type up as much of the questions which we could recall for our summative paper in the morning. It is not perfect, but we did the best to our recollection capabilities so you can find it at the link below and saving it as a word document is as easy as clicking file --> save as. Maybe you will find it helpful to remind you about the style of how they ask, or to take into account "supposedly whatever comes out for summative WON'T come out for EOS" or maybe you just want to keep it so you can pass it on to your juniors. Whatever the purpose is, we have done it for you so please make use of it if you may. :)

Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Talk

IMU Alumni Registration - IMPORTANT

I hope the title of this post has caught your eye! :)
So this is basically what's going on.

The convo mag committee has been working very hard to produce a yearbook that is

as awesome as it will be memorable for you all, however the price quotes aren't exactly as low as we would like it to be. So we are finding ways to raise funds so that we can subsidize for the cost of the yearbook at least by a bit. So here is my appeal, apparently Miss Asnah said that if the ENTIRE batch successfully registers as an IMU Alumni, we will get RM1k towards our batch fund and that translates into slightly cheaper convo mags for those interested in purchasing! Now, the procedure is simple and only takes 5 minutes and no don't worry there are no strings attached so I hope as a batch we can make this happen. Because, we can only receive the money if EACH AND EVERY SINGLE ONE of you registers and (yes they have a way to check).

So here's how! :)

1. Go to http://www.imu.org.my/

2. Click "sign up as a new member"

3. Fill in the form and press submit!

See, it really did only take about 5 minutes right? ;) Well, thanks so much for your cooperation really hope this works. And one more thing, if anyone has any cool ideas or knows any possible sponsors do let me know via email at Medt109@gmail.com - I would greatly appreciate it! Because, worst come to worst convo mag committee might just organize a car wash after EOS5 or something. :P

Cheers,

EOS5 Exam Prep Materials

Greetings M109!

I tried my best to compile as maany EOS5 EXAM-RELATED materials as possible and thank you for all those that also contributed to the pile of questions that we have in this folder. In this folder you will find:

****

1. PYQ

2. FLM (sem 4 + sem 5) - for OSPE

3. Goodies (which has our batch video and batch photos in high resolution!)

There is an additional folder which I have created entitled "CBL & IMS Presentations", so my last simple request is for those leaders in charge of your presentations, or whoever (also can) to just leave a copy of their presentations in that folder because it may be helpful to some of your batchmates.

****

WHERE?

Ans. Check it out at any one of the 3 computers at the "island" situated next to the magazine section latest by 1030AM , WED 4 MAY 2011. Take note, I will be removing the folder by next Monday, so take it while you can. I don't want to get "caught" disseminating any "contraband".

This is really as much as I can do as we all need to focus on exams, so if any1 really needs the CBL/IMS presentations would be best to just approach the group involved personally because at this point i'm sure most will be more than satisfied if they can finish their lecture notes (as there are so many!)

With that I wish every1 the very best for summative and EOS5!

Eldwin
