Why wait till April or July?

Start your A-level now, that way, you'll be in university in the fall of 2009.

Thank u for the reply. I'm visiting my dad in the uk, it's not optional.

Oh and i don't plan on entering in July, i was hoping i would still be considered for the march intake if i enter in the beginning of April. Hence my question, would i still be eligible for the march intake if i enter in the first week of april?

Can i take my diploma in Uitm ( Which supposed to be a 3 year thing) and maybe after 1 year or so i get my credits transferred to US universities?

Possible, you have to check with Taylor's and HELP. You should know that the march intake at both colleges are express courses. Depending on what subjects that you are going to take, HELP wouldn't be a wise choice if you are starting in March.

hey everyone,

does anyone have a list of schools in kajang that offers Form 6...

I'm seriously starting to consider Form 6 especially now that A-levels are kind of looked down upon by US colleges.

FYI, i want to take Biology, Chemistry, Physics...

Help is appreciated...

I heard STPM was Rank NO.3 in the world . I then dug up frm veteran n found out tht STPM was Rank TOP 10 in the world 30 years ago . Now is 200++ . But does US colleges think tht STPM higher standards?

[FONT=Times]Hi there,, I woould like to ask about how if i mess up with form six??? I have no other choice or to study f6 like those in form 5 now.... n my family financial not allow me to go private college and UNIversity, so if I get bad course in public Uni...wat mz I do????
go out to work??? I am afraid I cant survive without a cert in this day

If i enter matriculation, after a graduate, can i apply to an American college/ university? (using my matriculation assessments/results)

I heard that if i enter matrics then i can only go to local public universities to persue my degree but i don't want to, I want to continue my education in US.

Help....

I'd rather take STPM, but people are saying that it doesn't guarantee me a place in a university( like i don't know that already!). I have to get really good grades to keep persuing my education but i don't think that it's a big deal if i have to work harder to achieve success in my STPM and get myself a place in a university because i've deserved it and not merely because i've passed matriculation and am elligible for a place in that way.

What's so wrong in working hard for something ??!!

Everyone's saying matriculation is easier which is why i should take it but surely having something handed on a platter to you is not as great as getting it yourself by way of hard work and preservation ??!!!

What is wrong with the world ??!!!

Where did you get that piece of nonsense from?

The US accepts everything, even those home-schooled kids. The reason is because regardless of what you did in school, you still have to take the SATs and write a very pieces of admission essays.


That said, it is possible to use matriculation to go to the US. The application process wouldn't be that easy though. As you would need to have reports from your matriculation college, your college counsellors and all those paper work. With all due respects to the college, it might be a problem for the college to release documents in english.

Don't forget that the admission officers of the universities that you are applying to may be clueless on how this whole matriculation thing works. That is probably so because, it is rare for matriculation holders to go places like the States.

Can I ask something?? What is the course availableis really the 1 we dont like or hated??? or useless in future and we cant afford to study in public??? start working?? or continue study something dislike??

If you can't get the course that you want, you can still go overseas.

hi, everyone can tell me which one is more worth?
diploma, foundation, a-level or stpm?
i'm spm 2007 leaver, waiting results,
i sat for 12 subjects,
all got a except bc, now dunno wat is my ambition, my favourite subject is add math n physics, but i dont like account so much, i dunno wat course i would like to take in my tertiary edu.. any suggestions, thanks..

Do you want to go overseas? Want to have a shot at IPTAs?

Dun take for STPM for sure...wasting time...And it is tougher than before(SPM)....

ok for your case, hmm... y dun you go to some college tat can offer you A-level at April?
hmm.... actually for me, i will more prefer to go to study the subject which i like. coz only this way i can concentrate in my study. if you want me to go to the subject which im not interested, i definely cannot get the good result.

there is no such ranking on pre-u exams. ever.

Try JPA. Failing that, there is always STPM.

""i. study for STPM

STPM is accepted as an A-level qualification. some places regard this paper as even higher than A-level, but lets not touch on that. STPM is cheap. it's quite broad, covers a variety of subjects, and open for all. u can study/sit for STPM almost everywhere in malaysia. and it's quite easy to get in (compared to my time...)

STPM is also internationally recognized, so if u passed ur STPM, u can apply anywhere u want. be advised that u might need an IELTS or TOEFL to prove ur english proficiency (costs around RM400-RM550)""















Y need IELTS or TOEFL to prove our english level? MUET not enuf to prove ??

To complete whole IELTS course, how much v need? As i noe, it won't be RM400-RM550 tat cheap...

How much does it cost to finish ur A-levels course?
If u want cheap and fast i would suggest that u try matriculation either offered by the government or private unis like UNITEN, MMU and so on (which will be more expensive)
U save 1 year and u do not have to wait few months for ur result to be released...
