So I am seating for my SPM this year.
At first, I was thinking of doing IB diploma in ISKL (because of full
I am planning to get straight 10A+ for my trials and also the official exam.
The reason I am pushing myself so far is because I NEED to get scholarship if not, there is no way and no how I can further my education locally and also overseas cause my parents does not have the funds for it.
So I came across ADP, and I was wondering should I do it? My dream is to attend Columbia Uni, if that is not achievable, then NYU. I am looking at locations in New York because I want to take up journalism there.
My utmost dream is to be a Editor for a magazine in the States.

I did not bother about ADP at first because I read somewhere on the net saying that it is hard to enter Ivy League unis with ADP. But then recently, my aunt told me that I am studying too much if I took IB (2 yrs ) + Bachelor (4) so I did some research and found out that Columbia Uni and NYU was in the list of Taylor's ADP US uni's that accept our students for transfer. I got so euphoric knowing about this, plus the cost is so much cheaper than pursuing my full 4 yr bachelor in Columbia.

So any advice? and if I am doing this, I will be either going to Taylor's, Sunway or INTI. But I am leaning heavily towards Taylor's because of Columbia and NYU. Sunway is NYU and as for INTI, if I were to go there is most probably for the price.

And also, after doing 1 years here or 2 years here locally for ADP, are there full scholarships or 50% scholarships given out to ADP students wanting to go to NYU or Columbia?

Please advice, thank you.
