if you really know the status of Pharm.D in Canada and competitive degrees of admission requirements in UBC, you can change your thoughts.
As the first generation immgrant from China, finging a stable job with $50,000-70,000 is a better choice. But if your English is good enough to overcome MMI smoothly, you can try it.
如果你不明白for example, your average academic grade :92.
50% of 92 =46; MMI=30; total grade=76; native students: average grade :84, 50%of 84=42; MMI=42, totalgrade=84; do you think it is a discrimination?
越难上的,越容易找工作,不用担心你的付出,mmi 是最后一步,它让你有一种前面的努力都是浮云的感觉,只有英语最重要。仔细读admission requirements. most of health care professionals program need MMI in canada.这就是为什么,大家提起华裔子女都说成绩好,但在整个MD,PHarm.D 华裔的比例很低,就是这个MMI
“如果你不明白for example, your average academic grade :92.
50% of 92 =46; MMI=30; total grade=76; native students: average grade :84, 50%of 84=42; MMI=42, totalgrade=84; do you think it is a discrimination?” - 这些都是什么意思?
首先我强调的是英语,一些成功个案都是英语极强的人,或有特殊经历的,他们不能代表绝大多数移民的真实情况,这就像中649一样,我强调的是普偏性,不是个案。这就像我很多医生朋友来了之后想直接match医生但都失败,转而又去上个college, 所以他们劝我直接申请个college等以后找到工作慢慢提高英语,别耽误时间。但是个案就是每年都有5名中国移民获得医生机会,但一般香港台湾占4个。即使这些人所经历的艰辛只有同等经历的人才能理解。我相信药师的竞争可能比医生小一些,但在全加拿大甚至UBC也是very high competitive.
