No wonder this year JPA send so many students to Russia.....By using the same amount of money, they already can send 5 students to Russia study medicine....

Izit this is the right way??? Coz from wht I know, the students who study medicine in Rusia have to use Russian language in the last years......(except in Kursk State Medical University)..........According to a survey that I read, Russian language is one of the toughest language in this world.....Izit a real information??? If it's really true, than I think LANGUAGE will definitely be a heavy burden to the students there......

So those who are now studying in Russia, can u giv some commands about the difficulties of their language ??

Say you will be in Russia and Russian will need to be used in your final year(5th year). By then you will spend some time learning the language in Malaysia and have 4 full years mingling with Russians. Am sure some of them will use Russian when speaking and if you really want to learn well, mingle with them and practice using the language. I am sure they will be willing to help. You just have to try, and not be shy. 4 years are more than sufficient to learn the language.
