i think HKU is the main one. it is extremely hard to get into- especially if you're not from HK. why do you want to go there? do you speak cantonese?TheDervish said:

Yep. HKU is definitely on the top of the list. I'm fussy with the others. 😛 (sorry). Although HKU prescribes english textbooks and the medium of instruction maybe a mixture of both english and cantonese, one still needs a good working knowledge of Cantonese in order to interact with patients (I assume not all HK people can speak english, although it was ruled by Britain for a long time).
Chinese University of Hong Kong together with HKU is one of the only 2 universities in HK which has a medical faculty. Although historically younger than HKU's medical school, CUHK provides excellent medical training. The language of instruction is in English and the degree conferred after 5 years of undergraduate training is MBChB.
