Hi!

I've just finished my O level abt 2 months ago and got accepted into a JC (DSA).
But my parents actually arranged me to further my studies in Russia: First Moscow State Medical University (FMSMU).
It will be 6 years + 1 year (Foundation).
But I was also told that Singapore does not recognise Russian Medical Degree.
What can I do>.< ??

Valerie, in case your parents are unaware, you should let them know that the Russian medical degree will not be recognised in Spore. The SPore Medical Council's website has a list of foreign qualifications that are recognised, and they should choose one of those. They may be wasting money and 7 years of your life if you get a non recognised qualification.
