you're insisting on taking matriculation or you don't mind choosing other pre-U course? there are other options like A Levels, Form 6, HSC, SAM, etc. since you said you're interested in designing/architect (your final decision?) there are foundation courses offered for SPM leavers.

<whether or not the foundation course is good, that's a different story>

Alright, Thanks for your clarification.

As you said, 'If people cannot understand such things, it is very clear that one should not be looking into further education.'. I NEVER said i cannot understand but CONFUSING. Many entry requirements given there depends on diffrent countries respectively. Maybe i didn't stated to be exact or clearly on what do i need to know in my question, hence you had misunderstanding me. Sorry for that.

Frankly say, i can't understand what's MUFY, SAM, UEC....IF i never do any research before this. IF i knew it well, i won't be here to ask such question.

Calm down. All of us here were in your situation before. During my time, I have only less than 3 weeks to find out all about pre-U and I did all researches by myself.

Like you've mentioned, MUFY, SAM, UEC, A-Levels, etc....they're all pre-U courses. You need to take one of these in order to qualify to enrol for your further studies in university. Which one should you take? That all depends on you yourself, how much are you willing to spend on the tuition fees, do you mind spending more time on your pre-U (SAM takes about a year, A Levels takes about 18 months, etc),....

The important thing now is get your pre-U qualification first.

How bout diploma??

people say diploma is lower rank compare to A-lvl/Sam or watever. Is it true??

Entry qualification for Diploma is lower than of A Levels. For students who don't meet the requirements for A Levels, they can take Diploma, then proceed to Degree instead of A Levels -> Degree.
