hey there maxringo! i got the interview  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif is the sponsorship better than jpa-mara's though? cause if it isn't, then there's no use in going for the whole assessment and you might take other deserving people's spot as well

Not sure about the JPA-MARA, I think PESP grants you the freedom to choose your overseas universities. Need more confirmation on this.

I got the offer letter and it seems to be an assessment test right? I am bursary student too and don't know whether i should go and attend the test== what is the benefit provided by petronas scholarship?smile.gif)

Go for it first. If you get the scholarship at the end, then you reconsider your options. How I wish I get to be assessed too sweat.gif

hey im a bursary student too. but at least try getting your hands on a scholarship that will support up to your first degree. im pretty sure you know that the bursary only covers up until pre u right? and even if you score and get an offer from cambridge, you still have to compete with other bursarians, and non-bursarians as well, for the jpa scholarship ( it's new this year. haish why the 97s always kena )

Indeed, the 97's are always the "pioneers". From KBAT to new policy changes, haish sweat.gif
That said, if you do get accepted into Cambridge, meaning unconditional offer, you will be having a slight advantage. I mean, who doesn't want to sponsor a remarkable student like that right?
