The one-semester pre-medical Basic Medicine Course is recommended for students who do not have sufficient knowledge in biology, physics and chemistry from high school. The requirements in these pre-medical science subjects are rigorous, thus it is recommended that students who need a period of preparation prior to beginning the medicine, dentistry or pharmacy program join the Basic Medicine Course. Students who successfully complete the course are directly admitted to their chosen program. The course is recommended for those students who would like to refresh their high school knowledge before starting their first year studies.
