Hi,


Do update us here if any of your children received offer/wait list/reject notification from LKC/YLL.

Thanks and good luck to all.

Hi

Do LKC send out waitlist letters? Understand that rejection letters were send out together with acceptance letter yesterday.[/quote

Understand from previous batches that they do send wait list 1 to 2 days after the offer. But did they really sent rejection letter? Does that mean if din receive rejection, u will have high chance for wait list? BTW, have they send out all offer letters already?

Only reason is that NUS got a much longer history of medical education as compared to NTU and also stronger alumni network. After going thru the MMI introductory and course briefing today, looks like the TBL is more suitable for my son. But anyway, it is quite unlikely to be accepted by both medical schools for him

Heard results will be released next week. Good luck to all.

LKC seems to adopt a more personal approach in wooing candidates. Parents were invited to attend briefing & campus tour (CSB @ Novena) while their children were having MMIs. There was refreshments for candidates & parents too. The staff & students were helpful & friendly. The school does make candidates (& parents) feel welcome.

Heard that LKC has a Wait-List while YLL does not. Not too sure though.,

You are right. LKC did adopt a more friendly approach as compared to YLL. I was there for the briefing too. According to my son, the environment of the interview seems much better than YLL. Think LKC result will be released in the next couple of days reference to the past few batches.

Is your child done with both interviews ? Does he/she have a preference for one school over the other ?

Was told that LKC will make offers to successful candidates as early as late April, while YLL will do so in May.

All the best to your child !!

Thanks, he already done it on 2nd/3rd of Apr for YLL. As for LKC will be this Sunday. Yes, from past years, LKC released the first batch of offers as early as 23/24th of Apr. YLL was some where early May. does your child also applied this year? I think both med schools are excellent, if both offer, will likely select NUS.

Do you mind sharing why you (or your child) will likely select NUS over NTU ? Thanks..

Understand that YLL uses the lecture-tutorial system while LKC adopts a TBL (theme-based learning) approach. Which school the child chooses will depend largely on which teaching methodology suits him/her. Will leave it to son to decide which school he wants to join if he's fortunate to get both offers, as both medical schools are excellent schools.[/quote]Only reason is that NUS got a much longer history of medical education as compared to NTU and also stronger alumni network.

Thanks jtoh and angell..


Heard that YLL received close to 2000 applications and the school shortlisted less than half for FSA/SJT. Planned intake is around 320.

LKC shortlisted 398 applicants for MMIs. Planned intake is around 130.

LCK's interviews ended last Sun. YLL's may still be on-going.

LKC MMI is still on going. Last session will be this coming Sunday.
