QUOTE(??!! @ Apr 6 2006, 03:23 PM) Perhaps you should plan forward and then work backwards towards the end in mind. Now, this may appear to be an egg and chicken scenario, as most of us are uncertain where our interest lies after SPM. Not entirely true, MUFY costs you about 20k, with that money you can do A-levels. Similarly, SAM and AUSMAT is as expensive as A-levels in certain colleges.While any form of education is never really 'wasted', most of us would like to work out the most efficient route to achieve our targetted education ..efficiency in terms of time and money. As the Uni entrance qualifications are generally country specific, it is best if you can determine which country you want to go to for your further education. A levels is the most widely accepted pre-u qualification in commonwealth countries. Of couse, it is also be used in countries like Australia and USA. HOWEVER..... A shorter and cheaper route to Australia is be via SAM, MUFY or equivalent., which is a 1 year , which A levels is 1.5 yrs and generally costs more. As for USA, if one clears SATS, one can even enter a US uni after SPM. Any A level qualification may at best gain you some exemption for some credit transfers...not so efficient in terms of cost and time vs someone who had not done the A levels in the first place. A-levels or any other pre-u program makes you a stronger candidate if you are applying to top schools in the US. You'll have 12 years of education as opposed to just 11. |
