first they need to motivate themselves and take it as a lesson, let me tell you something, even those who studied abroad through jpa are not 100% great or will be be great, and we need to soak up the reality that in malaysia other than doctors, all the other occupations are overrated, we practically have little research based job in the market, spm until tertiary education are not that hard, just resit spm and at least get a diploma

spm is easy, though i didnt pass with flying colours, i took only 1 day to study each subjects to pass them and get few 4As so im sure with effort any student can do great, and the result is not an indication of how good you are, i bet theres alot of students that got A but can't even speak proper english

im currently doing my engineering degree, 1 year to go and am doing well

hard to say, maybe not A, lool bad example frm me there
