ARGGG!!! How should I arrange my UPU list!!! The due date is going to come soon. I hope you've read my previous blog posts and realised that I wanted to be a doctor. Hence, I would try my best to put in an application guild for UPU application especially for those who wanted to be a doctor in Malaysia.
First of all, I'll show you how did I fill my UPU online application.
Let me tell you some basics and updates about the latest UPU application (based on year 2017). Starting year of 2017, registration for both Universiti Malaya (UM) and Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) courses can be applied through UPU. It means you don't need to visit respective website of UM and USM to apply for their offered courses and you can save some money in buying a code for application as you just need to buy once for UPU. This breaking news seems good right? To me, nope! It reduces the chances for me to enter medical school! The previous seniors can apply total of 6 medical schools but for us is just 4.
4? Why 4? I thought in UPU application you can choose 12 courses? Yes, there's no obligation with it, but in fact the top 4 choices is only for interview courses(or if you want to put non-interview courses). Medicine, law, dentistry and etc. are all interview courses. By the way, all courses for Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) needs to be interviewed. In conclusion, choices 1-4 you can put both interview or non interview courses but for choices 5-12 are ONLY for non interview courses, or I would call it as backup courses if you can't get the courses you want in choices 1-4.
As you can see, I placed choices 1-4 for medicine in the order of UM, University Putra Malaysia(UPM), USM and Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS). I really brain stormed how should I order it and it annoyed me around 3 months and I've asked opinions from more than 15 seniors. At last, I arranged it according to the QS World Ranking 2018. Of course, I placed it also according to advices from friends and seniors such as UM only accept people who place them as 1st in UPU etc.
Before I forget, for UM, you need to take a test call BMAT test around the month of February. You need this test result in order for UM to accept your application for the interview calling soon. It consists of 3 sections. Section 1 is about general knowledge, section 2 about sciences while section 3 is writing a short essay.
