Lists Of Subjects For First Year Medical Students

Okay,sekarang kita dah mula masuk bab serius sikit.Sebelum start our lesson kat sana,kita dah bole mula 'berkenalan' dengan subjek-subjek yang akan dipelajari.Each subjek akan dibahagikan kepada dua iaitu Theoretical Topics dan Clinical/Practical.


BIOCHEMISTRY
