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.

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?

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

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.
