Recognized Foreign Medical Schools in Singapore

I have been told many times that my university degree would be recognized in Singapore (which means I can work there), but I've never actually went to search for the whole list of universities which are recognized. So I googled it and I found this! (I think this is more relevant for Singaporeans studying Med overseas, like THAZIN.), but it's fun looking at those names. Check out those from EUropean countries at the bottom.

So right now, there should be 100 foreign universities recognized. For those of you whose uni isn't listed may still apply to the SMC to practise under temporary registration.
