medical laboratory scientist exam

@rjohndeguzman ang haba pala nang hihintayin.. :S

Okay nmn work dito.. pero hindi ganon kalaki sahod sa private labs.. tapos malaki tax at mahal bilihin.

Sa tax tingin ko baka same lang jan.. kse may State at Federal tax na babayaran jan.. tama ba?

Pero sabi nila mas mura food jan kesa dito..

In terms of benefits nman.. lalo na sa may family.. mas okay dito.. subsidized ung childcare at libre yung Medicare.. so may napupuntahan nmn ung tax..

Kung nurse yung wife mo.. need niya mag-bridging course bago makapagwork.. pero mabilis lang nmn.. 3 months lang..

Tama ka.. pwede mag-in and out sa loob ng 5 years.. bago kau mgdecide na mgfinal move.. pero need nio mgstay ng 4 years dito bago maging citizen.. so kung matagal kaung wala dito.. matatagalan ung pag-apply nio ng citizenship..

@raspberry0707 Salamat sa inputs and in describing kung paano diyan sa OZ...

Yes napakatagal ng hihintayin, para bang lahat ng plano eh ma-hold back esp if may family na... dito sa states lahat shoulder mo, every expense pati insurance... malaki talaga ang gastos dito sa mga ganun bagay... plus the taxes... Food and goods siguro halos the same na lang din...

May bestfriend ako bumisita sa akin dito last month, diyan siya sa Melbourne. Lab tech siya sa hospital, I forgot the name pero may Saint yung name. Hehe ayun nga at naikwento paano ang life down under. Diyan na siya for 7 years and citizen na rin...

Yes, mas naisip ko, ako bilang medtech and may wife as a nurse baka mas mabilis ang pag asenso namin diyan if ever... I'll gather more info for her bridging program...

Pero habang andun pa yung first 5 years to enter and exit, stay muna kami here...

Question na rin, how do we get NBI clearance from overseas?

Salamat ulit!

@rjohndeguzman mas mabilis kau map-PR dito.. halos same benefits din nmn PRs at citizens.. minus lng ung benefits if you hold an Aussie passport..

Malaki pati sahod ng nurses dito

Mabilis na lang yang process nio kse Scientist ka na.. papa-reassess na lang nung work experience sa AIMS..

Good luck ha.. hope to see you here sa Melby..

Hi @auzziebound

According sa email na na receive ko..."Writing implements will be provided, candidates are not permitted to utilise their own pens, pencils etc."

"Note: Medical Scientist Membership examination candidates are requested to bring a silent, battery operated non-programmable calculator without alphabet keyboard.:

But eto ay dto po sa Sydney..may chance kaya na iba ang rules jan?

Hi @nightlock619 TBH po hindi pako ngrreview kc sobrang tinatamad na din tlg ako..basta Ive got few personal reasons kaya I dont feel motivated anymore but mainly because next month kc citizen nako (I don't mean to brag) and it feels like it opened a new door for me..gusto ko nalang mag study/ university dto to study different field (biomedical engineer) next year pero I will still try to study as much as I can for the exam, sayang din ung binayad eh..basta tuloy ka lang sa pagrereview, wag mo isipin ung ibang tao how they are doing with their review kc bka tamarin ka rin or what lol! Bsta motivate urself and still do ur best while may time pa ;-)

Mga reference ko lang ay ung ibang book na nsa list ng AIMS, hubbard, polansky, ciulla tska ung ibang reviewer ko from local boards sa pinas.

Andito ka narin sa AUstralia, right? how's darwin? like jobwise?

Best of luck huh ;-)

Hi @auzziebound I stand corrected...I forgot to mention what's the content of the email itself from the AIMS..ang na-mention ko lang ay ung rules don sa naka-attach na documents sa email:

@auzziebound ah I see...yeah, nakita ko din sa attachment nila sa email nila sakin na walang dapat dalhin na pens/ pencil sa loob kc provided naman nila then they mention naman sa mismong email na kelangan black pen ang ggamitin for answers..almost the same lang din ng content ng emails nila satin 2..magdala nalang din tayo ng black pen just in case kailanganin then calculator pwede nman mgdala as long as non-programmable..

yes same parin nman lahat maski IELTS, passing score etc except sa prices..kc last week ng inquire ako about cancellation and fees..sabi nga nila by next year ata mag iiba na price dto from $700 assessment will increase to $800+ at ang exam itself from $600 to $800 narin :-)

@auzziebound

If im not mistaken un ang pagkakaintindi ko don sa kausap ko last week..im not quite sure if mgtataas palang or nag taas na sila kc year 2015 pako ngpa-assess and register for the exam..during that time $700 for the assessment and $600 for the exam ang binayaran ko.

Yep, tiwala nalang and just do our best while may time pa..good luck din sayo and see you around here ulit after the exam! ;-)
