Greetings M104!!! The following is a forwarded Friendster message from our very own batchrep Johan. It's about the EOS-5 format. I realized that a number of friends I know seldom access Friendster, so I've taken the liberty to paste the (original) message here! lol! Read carefully ya. Take care!!! =)

MSG:

U know, if i had a penny for every sms i have to
reply about the format of EOS-5, i would
have...err...how much is a penny anyway...?

EOS-5.

6 problem case question. Total 300 marks.

Thats 50 marks per question.

We have 10 systems (not counting in Foundation2).

Each system will have 25 marks allocated to it.

Huh, but that should add up to 250 marks only
wor? Enter second sms reply and a very sore
thumb...

1 system is gonna get 50 marks allocated to it.

Foundation 1 is NOT coming out, if it does
anyway, its gonna be so simple that if u cant
answer it, i wont be goin to u for my prostate
problems in the near future...

Focus more on patho and clinical, cuz its
PROBLEM CASES. Of course, u cant leave out
ur anatomy, physiology, pharmacology,
behavioural sciences, epidemiology, comm med
etc.

Apparently u can forget embryology, but heck, we
wouldnt want to take risks eh?

And no, i dont have past year questions with me. I
din use em back in EOS-3, and im not using them
in EOS-5. Where is ur medical ethics lah? Did
Hippocrates say u should use past year questions
in the pursuit of medicine? Shame on u. U have
shamed the likes of Apollo, Menes, Aeusculipius
(god knows how u spell his name), Osler,
Harrison, Gray, Talley, MacLeod, HtinAung,
TimothySoong, FrancisAchike etc.

OPSE only come out sem4 and sem5.

OSCE come out EVERYTHING.

There, now me dun have to keep walkin to 7-
Eleven to reload me phone, and can now save up
more money to buy me a spankin new OHCM.

And me no need to suffer from "SMS Thumb
Fatigue Syndrome", occupational hazard hor...
