Thanks!

Thanks a bunch! I've been so busy with moving that I hadn't had time to just sit and do it. But with people like you around, I don't have to.

thanks for the links

Hi. Thank you very much for the links. I have checked some of them just a while ago and I thought they can really be of help. I've been dying to take up med as a course but the problem is my family's financial capability. Some companies here in my country also offer scholarship but we have to render service to their company as soon as we graduate.
