UPDATE: here are some alternatives for those who didnt really score well in STPM

UNISEL
MUST
UNIKL
UTAR

This guide is a simple guide for those who cannot read mandarin and wish to check the expected GPA in order to apply for a specific course in a specific university.

Click Here

Click the link above and choose any university which you would like to check.

Except for UTM, UTeM & UniSzA which are all direct .PDF link. The others will link you to a website with an embedded PDF within scribd.

For those direct .PDF link, all you need to do is to click on the relevant course and check the details. For the others, the page will appear like this



So what you usually do is to browse through the file using the arrow which i circled it in red.

To go to a course directly, you can just search the keyword like "ekonomi" or "perubatan" at the bottom right.

Anyhow, if you cant found the course, you should just browse through the whole file. It is not that time consuming.

So for the data,



The first row indicates the mean score (average score) of the students admitted into the course. In the example shown above, the students have an average GPA of 3.36. (Yesr 2010/11)

the second row would be the minimum and maximum GPA which is from 3.08 (2) to 3.67(4). The number in the brackets indicated the number of students.

Mode would be the most common GPA in the batch. You can see there are 21 students who are admitted have a GPA of 3.25.

4th and 5th row are not that important as they are related to the total number of chinese students admitted into the course.

*I am not related to quansheng in any way. This is just to help those who cant understand/read chinese.

5th row is the number of chinese students out of whole batch.
in the example, there are 119 chinese out of 235 students.

first tier IPTA are USM, UM, UKM, UPM and UTM.
so their are more competitive than other IPTA.

don forget to apply UMS and UNIMAS as well.

But please remember, must apply to USM cause USM have their own admission system. So you dont waste any slot when you are applying for other uni.

i cannot tell you the percentage but with you GPA, it is possible.

the stats i got from quansheng is

mean gpa 3.35
range from 3.00-3.84
most common gpa, 3.17(4), 3.25(4)

remember to place it the first choice. Some candidates with good result are rejected even after a good interview because they didnt place it as the first choice.

usual path is apply with stpm/matrik -> qualify (or not) for interview -> interview -> accpted/rejected
but i am not sure which course requires interview and which course doesnt.
I do know pharmacy, medic certainly require interview before you are admitted.

oh and also munsyi! but i cannot tell more about this because i was admitted under the old system.

for USM it is unlikely you can get com science according to the stats.
But you can try other uni like UPM, UM, UKM and other IPTA. Please refer to the link in first post. do your own homework.

you din see my reply up there?

with 2.25, you can forget all the courses in USM since they require GPA >3.00.
However, you can look for those unpopular courses in UM, UPM, UTM and UKM in the first link and see the statistics.

Ideally, you should be applying for UTEM, UNIMAP, UMP and other IPTA.
Also, apply for UTAR in case u din get any offer from IPTA.
good luck.

i already graduated from USM. I took physics for my undergrad.

its your own future so please dig in more before you decide what to apply.

you MUST apply for USM kelantan campus as well because it doesnt clash with your UPU application.

If you insist on either dentistry or actuarial science, you can go to IPTS in case all your UPU/USM application failed.
Just as a backup plan, apply to UTAR for actuarial science and other medical IPTS for dentistry.

dude, certainly it is course specific.
refer to the first post and dig in for more info.

Hi! It is still possible to go into research UNIs. But i am not so sure with the CGPA as i no longer got myself involved with these things. You should check the links in the first post for updated info. I am pretty sure they still update the CGPA every year. Those courses you listed are actually not that unpopular. The real unpopular courses are management, arts, industrial technologies (food tech, wood tech, cloth tech) and many others.

Don be confused, just check the shengxue links 1 by 1 (in the first post, go to the website) and study last year's admission stats. You will then know which course to apply.
