Are you contemplating a Medicine Degree? Want to know what’s it like to be in the medical profession, beyond what is shown on TV?
You’re in luck — the Malaysian Medics International (MMI) is back with their annual one-day programme, Making an Informed Decision (MAID) 2018.
MAID 2018 will let you experience the day in a life of a medical student and expose you to the realities of the profession — both the good and the bad. During the programme, you’ll not only be exposed to core activities conducted in medical courses, but you will also be surrounded with medical students, doctors, nurses and other medical professionals where you can pick their brains regarding the field.
Think of it as a quick crash course that will help you make an informed decision and decide if you are suited for medical school!
When and where?
Date: 30 June 2018 (Saturday)
Venue: Hospital Sungai Buloh, Selangor
Time: 8am to 5.30pm

- Learn firsthand from doctors and specialists on their experiences as a medical professional
- Attend the Medical School 101 sharing session and learn about the realities of studying medicine as well as the application and admission process into medical school
