i'm in Chung Ling Butterworth which located at penang!

oh PLYZing, ic, your school starts the tuition so all u can catch up with the syllabus
so good le
i think i better go study my f6 book now
how many chapters all u have covered alredi, PLYZ

Btw...jz wanna ask...usually when the f6 will start intake ?

JULY????
izzit true form 6 damn HARD LIKE HELL??

As long as you put in effort it wouldn't be. Not the kind of effort where you start studying seriously only 1/2 months away.

Just start early and you should be fine. Always try to do a topic review after you've finished certain chapters/topics,make your own short notes, attempt pass year questions and you should be fine. Scoring an A would require extra effort.

Lol. I did something yesterday, just for fun. I went to google and typed in 'hardest pre-u examination'. Granted the results were mainly blogs/forums/etc, but I wonder if it was any coincidence that nearly half of the first 10 results were regarding STPM.

Yes, it is hard like hell. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, and don't take it unless you are damn damn damn damn damn damn damn hardworking (can study 5+ hours a day everyday or something). Many people who got full As for their SPM didn't get anything close to that for STPM. I'm one of them.

My advice: Don't go form 6 at all. It was a bad mistake on my part, I really hope noone else makes it.

yeah misao i agree wif you

Unless you are very very very very hardworking X999999, forget about it. I don't believe in study smart but not study hard for F6. It's a lie in my opinion. U need to work extra hard.

My advice : If you have the money don't even bother about taking form 6. It's hard, it's time consuming and the selection process for getting in local universities ain't that fair.

I did the mistake as well. I have the money but I join form 6. But now I'm going to private U instead. But in my part I wouldn't regret it as back then I didn't even know what to study after my SPM so there's no one to blame except myself.

i guess i'm same wif u misao. I get 7A and 2B in my SPM .. but my STPM 1A and 3C. Hurray for me .. .. it's not like i was lazy .. it's just that you need to work super hard X 999999.

Normally the intake will be somewhere in July.

Exactly the same. I'm prolly goin to private anyway.. I mean, I WILL apply for local uni but 3.58 CGPA get pharmacy? Chinese samore? Heh.

To those also undecided, IMO better you take A lvls, SAM, CPU, whatever. Private uni's requirement for A lvls also lower than STPM lol... like, wtf?

3.58 get pharmacy ?
wow doens't look bright ler ..
infact it's not bright at all ..

so how u now ?
u register private U as backup or wat ?

Haha better don't spam here.. I pmed you ^^'

ya.... I was in form 6 too... for half a year.... and now I'm taking alvls.... First things first..I can really see the difference in quality of the education between government(stpm in my school) and private, the private edu is so much more better. teachers are so much more "understandable then the teachers tat thought me in stpm..... so ya... I;m glad I made the switch b4 it was too late. Another thing, stpm is super tough. I believe the jump from spm is too high, u have to work extremely hard to really score, stuff tat i study in stpm on the 2nd week i only study tat on my 2nd or 3rd semester here in alvs. Tho both will end up on the same level as one another but the good thing tat alvls does is it strengthens ur basics b4 it goes to the tough part....... but stpm... hahah first day itself u just face the hard topics straight away...

wahahhaha
scared oledi to take form6
maybe my VERYY LAST CHOICE

yeah i've notice tat as well ..
the foundation needs to be very strong ..
but stpm doesn't give you time to do that ..
today's thing, today you have to study finish ..
you keep it aside for tomolo then study then you are in trouble

lucky u, u make the change earlier than any1 else ..

but do not get me wrong .. if any1 else think STPM is good then go ahead then .. just don rant here later when you are in our shoes

Form 6 in SMK Taman Sea

Quality of education?
Cant complain cos u aint paying for it

really that hard meh? but seeing that it's too hard, if someone scores very well (5a's huh?), will the person secure a place or chance for oversea scholarship?

i sort of agree lor ..
you give nothing, you get nothing in return

those oversea scholarship thingy is "dark secret" of the government de lor ..
u dun even wanna know how they select ppl to send to oversea
from what i see sometimes they send "underperforming" students to oversea rather than bright students
there's no certain that he/she will be sent
he/she might have a higher chances of getting send though ~

As far as I know, there is no govt-based overseas scholarship for STPM at all. Your best reward by the govt is to get a local uni with the course of your choice... IF you slogged your way up to get really good grades.

nah... u cant say tat. Doesnt mean we're not paying for it we should get bad quality altho tats the case.... With tat sort of attitude our public school system will nvr improve. See other countries for that matter of fact. The bad quality ends up wif students having to go for tution or self understanding to learn thier syllabus and jus cant rely on the school teachers. I believe in other countries like US or UK or Australia i dont think tuitions there is as common as us here.... So that really shows it la, if u get good quality education in schools, u'll not go out looking for tuition.

i heard sci in form 6 is tough but art is easy? is it true?
