QUOTE(OTRoad @ May 12 2014, 08:04 PM) Yes. The deadline for each batch is January 1. So if you take it in May/ June 2016, you would have missed it already and have to wait to apply at the end of that year (which closes on Jan 1 2017). Which means you would be admitted in Fall 2017. Try to take your SAT in May/ June 2015 and apply just at the end of your Upper Six. You don't need your actual STPM results. Another thing is that you cannot take SAT I and II on the same exam date. So you need to keep two dates available. Oh I see! Thanks!BTW, do you take SAT before? I try...but May/June 2015 will be my sem 2 exam  |

QUOTE(Joelyn @ May 11 2014, 01:16 PM) Hello guys, I will take STPM 2014/2015.I made the decision to study Form Six as it is very cheap compare to any other pre-u and it provides wider range of choices after finishing it. However, may I know is Stpm have the high chances to get accepted into top uni in US and SG? As I know,SAT is needed to go to US uni, but since I am taking STPM ,can I take the SAT or should I say do I have the time to take SAT? I know STPM need to study really hard . Since then, can I still participate in extra cocuriculum activities? I do not want to lose my life T_T ( AND CCC is also important to get in the uni in US right?) Thanks in advance  Hi, after stpm when ur result come out u can try to apply for the oversea uni, it is possible u will be accepted. You also can participate in extra cocuriculum activities and u should participate in cocuriculum activities because it will help u get the higher cocuriculum mark. |

You can also take SAT in Oct/ Nov/ Dis (not very sure) so maybe take one during mid-year and one at the end of the year? Yea, it sort of clashes with our semester exams. Have you heard about USApps? They do workshops so see if you can go to one. This post has been edited by OTRoad: May 12 2014, 08:20 PM |

Haha  But afraid that I cannot juggle both my academic and ccc  Because I heard many horrible stories in form six like u have to study like crazy people, no social ,no life? However,I think it depends right? |

Ya, it is depends, u will not regret after u study form six. Remember every topic that teacher teach at school after go back home need rereading or u can do ur own note, it will make u more easy when u want to exam. |

QUOTE(Joelyn @ May 12 2014, 07:40 PM) Last year?That means you are also under the new modular system?Congratulations for the flying colours! Are you science stream(bio/physics)? wow!four flats,that means you need to excel since sem 1 right? (I do not know I can do that or not )BTW, may I know do you retake any sem? My teachers do not encourage us to retake.As you have been accepted to NUS and NTU, may I know do these unis look on to your extra cocurriculum activities? yes I am one of the guinea pig of the new modular system, thanks man! I am from physics stream, I did quite bad in sem one, better in sem two and finally four flat in sem 3 I retake sem one and two. On the contrary, my school teachers encouraged us to retake and I do will encourage you to retake even you got A- in any subject. I have one friend managed to score 3.92 in sem 1, four flat in sem 2 and 3 and yet overall can only get 3.92. So it is a smart choice to retake. Hmm I am not sure whether they really look on my co-curriculum activities or not, but so far all my friends who scored 3.92 and above got the offer from NTU, NUS would be harder and i guess they really look at the co-curriculum activity. |

For STPM, I think you only need to get 4Bs to get in NUS (couple of friends studied there, including bro)
