Honestly, life in AUSMAT Sunway is the best among all my academic life.
First if all, they have super friendly lecturers to accompany us for 10 months long!!!
Miss Hanushia, my favourite lecturer of all, taught me abundant of knowledge on biological sciences.
Flora and fauna at Australia, pollution problems in Australia, DNA, PCR, variation, evolution and etc.
To be honest, I am a big fans of Miss Hanu :p
loving the way she lecture us, her humorous lectures, and all the extra knowledge other than biological sciences.
Biological sciences gave me a lot of experiences on coursework, we always need to do presentations and assignment for this subject.
The most interesting assignment will be field trip!! Which is the toughest assignment.
Then followed up with the black rose assignment which made me so headache so few weeks wtf!!
Plus the lab works! Will never forget the fake snake in the lab which my friends always scared me with that zzz -.-
Electrophoresis experiment :)
Extraction of kiwi's DNA.
Oh hi, let's meet my sexy cheek cells!!!! ahahahahah
Although my biological sciences unexpectedly scored lower than what I expect,
I am still loving biological sciences!! :) Will never give up on it in the future.
THANK YOU MISS HANUSHIA!!!!
Followed up will be my second favourite lecturer! Miss Giita hehe.
She is like a friend of mine, we always annoyed each other and make fun of each other,
but I feel that it is a really healthy relationship though :)
FYI, she taught me CHEMISTRY!
In the beginning of the year, my chemistry teacher was Miss Muna.
No offence but she is really bad in teaching.
After that, am so lucky to have Miss Giita to be my chem lecturer and she really saved me!!!
Chemistry in AUSMAT is so much tougher than SPM's chemistry.
However, if we compare it with other courses, our chemistry is slightly easier,
is just that most of the time the questions are really tricky and I always kena their tricks fml :(
Learnt many weird stuffs in chemistry but well, chemistry is always fun when it comes to lab work!
In AUSMAT, we have lab class every week which made me so excited!!!
I always love hands on practical work compared to theory classes.
One of the lab session that I will never forget it the esterification lab work!!
It's like the worst thing I ever smelled and I nearly vomit fml!!
I thought ester has nice smell -________-
I really forgot what experiment is this, cause chemistry experiments is like all the same, watching this colour of solutions change to that colour of solution LOL!!!
And then JANG JANG!! Miss Julia!!! My adorable EALD lecturer!
EALD stands for english as second language or dialect. It is a slightly easy english class in AUSMAT.
First day of class, Miss Julia looks so fierce to me,
and EALD is always the super stress class for me as I got no confident in english.
However, after spending my 10 months with Miss Julia, she is actually the cutest and prettiest lecturer!!
And then she treat us orange flavor ice cream at the last class hehehehehe, happy kid yo!!
In EALD, the most unforgettable experience will be the oral examination aihs.
Just so you know, I am super bad in speaking english and I got no confident at all!!!
My first oral exam I got Miss Diana as my interviewer, I did quite bad in this exam because I am too nervous and my answers are short.
Second oral exam is with Mr. Oliver.
Mr. Oliver as my interviewer is like nightmare to me, and I actually used 1 week to actually accept this fact, funny I know :(
Surprisingly I did really well with him!! He always gave me the eye contact that agree with what I say, and actually boost up my confident! and I got high mark for this.
As for the actual oral examination which we have to go to the computer lab to talk with out interviewer in Australia, the interviewer actually argued with me -.- like seriously ARGUE.
I kept giving him response like "NONONONONONONONO" Idk how many NO I had said wtf -.-
I am so angry about this and I thought I will get very low mark because I offended him.
But well, I got super high marks for my external examination LOL. Maybe he thinks I am responsive enough HAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
EALD has assignment as well, like watch movie and answer question whereby lecturer will gave us few days to prepare before the examination. We had an assignment that we have to make out own movie as well!!! :)
Then, let's meet my mathematics specialist's lecturer, Miss Janice!!
Miss Janice is the most hardworking lecturer that I've ever seen.
She can marked all out exam papers within ONE DAY plus uploaded our marks on BB,
IN-JUST-ONE-DAY, OOONNNEEEEEEEEEE! Crazy enough??
She is also the ONLY lecturer that completed whole syllabus 3 months before out mock examination -.-
really efficient!!!
Miss Janice always give us motivations, no matter how low is our marks, I remember I scored only 50% for that paper, she praised me and said that I actually improved a lot, made me feel like crying :(
After evaluation examination 2, Miss Janice left AUSMAT to further her master.
I believe that it is a big lost for coming AusMatians, she is really a great lecturer!!!
Mathematics Specialist -.- TOUGHEST MATHS EVERRRRRRRR.
I am always so confident with my maths, no joke!
and because of maths spec, my confident level dropped to negative infinity fml.
Maths spec is the only subject which can make me cry the day before the examination, and it is the only subject I can study till 5a.m and will never give up on it.
In the beginning I scored really well, like REALLY REALLY well, then after the syllabus went deeper, jeng jeng, I'll stop talking about it here lol.
Differentiation with smiley zero!!!
After all I still managed to pass my maths spec with the mark of 59, I am actually proud of it since my internal is only 52 -.-
It is a great challenge though, for those who love challenging maths can try to take it!!
Last but not least, Mathematic 3C/D's lecturer, Miss Yip!!! :)
I changed 3 lecturers for this subject -.- Miss Shanti to Miss Choo to Miss Yip.
Miss Yip is a very hardworking lecturer as well, I remembered that she did notes before she enter our class.
And she always there for us whenever we need extra assist on this subject.
She is also a very nice lecturer to talk with HAHA. We always speak mandarin to here but she always answered us using english.
I'm not sure why until now LOL.
Mathematics 3C/D, I always neglected this subject and I really really hate it!!
This is the only subject that I don't understand why I can't score in EVERY SINGLE examination.
It is really very frustrating to everyone of us.
Luckily in external examination I did quite well, and it actually helped me to scale up my internal examination's marks!!
And surprisingly, MATHS 3CD BECAME MY FIRST SUBJECT =_=
I always thought my first subject will be biological sciences even after I did my external examination.
I really can't imagine that, can till now I don't understand why I can't score in internal examination, I'm just doing the same thing for my internal as what I did in my external.
Sigh, forget about it :(
Anyway, this maths is really playing around with english -.- I got tricked like N times and I am really angry with it.
Sometimes I couldn't even answer the question just because I don't understand the questions, the english is too difficult.
AUSMAT is also a very interesting course because of it's activities. In this year, we had teacher's day and talent time, I-care day, Career Exploration Day to different universities and companies, many talks from universities all around the world and etc.
AUSMAT not only cared about the quality of students and the result of the students, they also actually cared about the quality of lecturers, they always concerned about the future of their students by recommending them different universities, gave students motivation talks like the S.O.S, as well as contribute back to the society through I-Care Day.
Life in AUSMAT Sunway University, I enjoyed the comfortable lecture classes, experienced and explored a lot, found bunch of crazy friends, built an unbreakable bonds with student council's members, found teamwork, formed another dance crew which is RAINBOW PIXIE to join the talent time, and not to forget AUSMAT night. Each of these memories will stay with me forever. It was the most enjoyable year throughout my life. I remembered the video played on AUSMAT night, I was in the backstage preparing for my performance, and I cried in the backstage because I'm really unwilling to leave this place. 10 months for AUSMAT is too short, how good if it is a 3 year course.
If anyone ever ask me which college and what course do I studied, I will answer them proudly that I am an AUSMAT student from Sunway University. Definitely a beautiful chapter of my life :)
Will try to post for AUSMAT night when I'm free :) Stay tuned!!!

Hi there, I finished spm last year and I'm planning to go for ausmat at sunway kl too :) may I ask you a few questions?
1. Do you need to have a solid background on biology and chemistry in spm? Or do you learn the basics along while in ausmat and need not revise what you learnt in spm?
2. I heard there are two english subjects. What's the difference between them?
3. What's the difference between mathematics AB, CD and mathematics specialist? How do I choose?
4. How is atar calculated? Is it hard to obtain above 90?
I hope you will reply to this as I'm in a serious dilemma on what subjects to choose.
Here's some stuffs about me. I'm just an average student who scored As and Bs and I wish to pursue in medicine(and i heard it's not easy) please give me your advice based on your experience. I feel like I'm on the verge of failure. Thank you.
