Antara post yang mendapat lawatan terbanyak adalah post bertajuk Farmasi UM. Mungkin ada adik-adik kat luar sana yang berminat nak ambik course Farmasi kat UM. So I hope I can help those outside there with this post.
FYI, I am currently third year and now in the second semester of third year. Before this, I took foundation of Science at UiTM Shah Alam. Hey, sape kata ambik Asasi kat UiTM tak boleh pergi jauh? More than half of my classmatess got medical and dentistry course you know. Syaratnya kena 4 flet la. Hehe. But believe me, ada yang tak dapat 4 flet pun still boileh dapat sambung medic and dentistry. Rezeki diorang jugakj kot.
So, during the Asasi I got GPA 3.89 for the firest semester and 4.0 for the next semester. Then for UPU I had choosen Farmasi UiTM and UKM but ended up getting Farmasi at UM :O
Ohoi English hang tunggang langgang -.-
Abaikan. Haha. There are still room for improvement right? :D
So, apa kelebihan Farmasi kat UM ni?
Kalau nak diikutkan, pilihan terbaik untuk course Farmasi kat Malaysia ni USM la sebab dia uni kat Malaysia pertama yang offer course ni. So dia better la in that point. APEX plak tu~ Nak tau APEX tu ape sila google ye. Jangan malas-malas. TAPI, UM pun tak kurang hebatnya. Kita ada pilot plant. Hehe.
Pilot plant tu adalah....sebuah lab untuk membuat tablet. Cuma kat UM je ada pilot plant tau. You well get exposed in industrial pharmacy and can create your own tablet. Woah!
Kelebihan lain adalah sebab UM sendiri (kecuali yuran yang mahal). Rugi la kalau masuk UM tapi tak ambik sebanyak mungkin pengalaman and enjoy your student life.
Lagi satu, mungkin dikira kelebihan ialah sebab UM je ada Kepujian. BPharm (Hons). And based on apa yang lecturer cakap, kalau graduate UM dapat 2.7 pun kira setanding dengan graduate uni lain yang dapat 3.0. Tapi, itu semua mungkin berubah sebab sekarang ni dah ramai yang ambik farmasi ni. Dah saturated dah pun. Ok, tu nanti kita cerita kemudian.
Best ke Farmasi ni?
Best ke tak depends on you actually. How y u get yourself along, how u live you life and how you interact with peoples. Kat sini ada Pahrmacy Society which you'll be automatically be a part of them once you are UM Pharmacy student. PharmSoc ni penuh dengan aktiviti. Annual Gathering, Pharmily Day, Pharmsport, Pharm Night, Community Outreach Programme. Tu anjuran PharmSoc. Other than that ada jugak persatuan untuk student farmasi seluruh Malaysia iaitu MyPSA. And there are national activities too. Contohnya, National Gathering of Pharmacy Students (NoGAPS), National Pharmacy Sports Carnival (NPSC) and many more. Kalau nak rasa best, get yourself involve into any of the activities :D
Bukan tu je ok..korang boleh join aktiviti under kolej or other society kat UM ni. Discover yourself. Personally, I encourage everyone to join any of those society or college project. Boleh kenal kawan course lain, build your soft skills, takde la 'peghak' sangat duduk dalam bilik. Come on la, student UM kot. :P
Susah tak farmasi?
Susah tak? Adik-adik, course mana-mana pun susah. Tapi jujur wa cakap sama lu, jangan berangan la nak dapat 4 flet lagui. HAHA. Bukan mustahil tapi kalau nak kena all out la. Setakat ni ada la senior yang pernah dapat 4 flet tapi bukan untuk semua sem la.
Jangan terkejut kalau dapat GPA 2.0. Even ada yang dapat less than 2.0 tau. Tapi ada jugak ramai yang dapat 3.5 above. It all depends on you. Like me myself, I never reached 3 pointer yet. Ahaks, Sem ni insyaAllah. Masih ada peluang. Aaminn~ Mula-mula maybe ada sikit susah la nak adapt. Tapi slowly you will learn how to catch up, believe me. If you do not give up. Never ever give up okayh!
Frankly speaking, mana ada benda yang senang. Semua benda kita kena usaha kan. Tak kisah la ambik coure apa pun. ;D
Nanti belajar ape je? Saya ambik farmasi ni sebab suka kimia, tak suka bio.
If u had any thought like 'ambik farmasi sebab tak suka bio and suka kimia' atau yang sewaktu dengannya baik tukar mind set tu sekarang sebab as a pharmacist you need to understand how the drugs work in human body. And its not all about chemistry. :D
So basically...macam-macam yang kita akan belajar. Start dari first year belajar basic topics like anatomy, human physiology, basic chemistry, basic principles of pharmacology and so on. Then second year belajar pasal microbs, drugs, pharmacology and so on.. Actually, ada banyak cabang yang korang akan belajar. Contohnya korang akan ada subjek-subjek berkaitan kilinikal, industrial, statistical and research, labs dan baaaaanyak lagi. Bagi yang suka memasak, korang juga akan bbelajar memasak dan menyediakan pelbagai jenis preparation.You gonna make your own syrups, creams, ointments and stuffs.
Haih..apa lagi ek.. Takpe la.Ni tengok gambar-gambar plak.
