I'm not sure whether Monash does have data like that on feedback, and it's certainly not released on the public part of the site. Monash does focus a lot on non-medical science aspects of the course, and compared to a lot of courses there's a lot of emphasis on programs like HEP (Health Enhancement Program) and CBP (Community Based Program). HEP was pretty well received by the students this year, but CBP doesn't seem to be liked by many, although as a second-year program I haven't actually experienced it.Just a quick question, I am aware that UNSW uploads the quality of teaching and students' satisfaction/dissastisfsction reports for the medical course online as a document for the public to read... Does monash do the same? I can't seem to find much information on the monash website and it's quite frustrating, as there's such a huge wealth of information on the UNSW side. Can any monash students advice on what's the main pros and cons the students experience there? In comparison, from what I read from the report (you can google to find the detailed 30+ pages one), UNSW main good points are the student community and they are extremely receptive to feedback, while the bad points are the iffy ways they grade essays and examinations, and not much communication and support to medical students regarding examination aspects. The ILP received negative feedback too, although over the years it has been improving, which shows that the uni is doing its best to improve the programme.
Furthermore, UNSW sends a detailed PDF file containing information of course content and how each semester/course would be graded and learning objectives for each module, to their students. I have one set sent to me by a helpful forum mate, and I was wondering if monash does the same for their students? Any monash students willing to share and send me such a similar file containing these important info, should it exist? Thank you so much!
I have course guides for both the first-year units as well as a 1st and 2nd year assessment guide, but I don't think you'll find them particularly useful, especially as it's so little of the course. Between the article "About Monash" that I've written on here and the Monash Handbook entry on the MBBS is probably going to be the best information about the whole of the course.
