Hi there. =)

I'm currently 17 years old, taking SPM later this year.

My plan is to get decent enough results - study at PTPL (formerly IPG) doing A-levels in Law - and get a scholarship to a university in Australia and study Law.

The thing is, if I do not get a scholarship to Australia, my chances of studying there are pretty much shot. I'm hoping to get to the university of Melbourne or Sydney.

Any opinions/comments? I wish there was an alternate way to Australia without banking it all on a scholarship, unfortunately my family's funds are limited, so I think thats all I have right now.

hi im really confused here. im not sure to take CAT->ACCA or foundation in business->accounting and finace degree

any suggestions pls?

In case you don't know. You can complete ACCA at the same time you complete a degree. Because ACCA collaborates with a university in UK. So it's CAT -> ACCA + the degree. Overall takes around 3-4 years if I'm not mistaken and if you don't fail anything.

How reputable the degree is compared to the accounting and finance degree you're talking about though, I don't know. I'm a CAT student by the way.

if i have bad results, i go for certificate course which is my last chance, do i still stand a chance to take diploma and degree?

erm...how is your a lvl result?if you cannot gt scholarship to further your study in prestidge universities such as university of melbourne,i think u will have to change your path.if you really want to go australia,the way that i know is KDU twinning programme which collaborate with university of tasmania(3+1),it is money-saving and a quite desirable degree can be obtained too.why u never think about UK?for UK,there will be more choices such as HELP university college which has great experience in holding degree transfer programme with numerous UK universities and there are many well-known universities involve too such as university of manchester.

I haven't taken A-levels, I'm only planning to. I'm taking SPM this year.

I didn't aim for UK because I think its more expensive than Australia, also further away. =) But thanks for your reply, I'll definitely give UK some thought now!

Hi, Im having my spm this year.

Well, I've decide to enrol in college in january 2010,next year.
then, take a degree in chemical engineering.
Im confused between foundation and a levels.

I want to take foundation in science but the problem is I dont know either it is recognised or not, I heard that foundations are only recognised by its own uni, which means I can only study foundation and my degree in the same uni. Is it true?

the reason why i want take a levels because it is international recognised, which means after i finish a levels, i can continue in any private u , not limited like foundation?

is it true? can anyone suggest? i think i had made up my mind to study chemical engineering, chemistry is my interest.

need some help here. i plan to do acounting in melbourne so this is what i have in mind.

will be doing SAM next year then off to melbourne for accounting. after that i would like to do acca as well. how many exemptions do i get if i do CPA first? am i on the right track? thanks guys.

programming only?? No...

science of computing? 9eg how the semiconductor works and how programming logic affects it) ... yes
