Hey I got the phone interview too but I do not hope much for the scholarship tho tongue.gif

I don't know much about both scholarships but I suppose there's a job guarantee for YSD scholarship right ?

Hi guys, I'm having a bit of a dilemma here. I applied for Yayasan Sime Darby's scholarship with the chance to further to UK, back in April. Only recently did they decide to have their phone interview and I was called just now. Not my intention to brag here, but the interviewer said she will highly recommend me for the next round. I do not know when will they release the final results of the scholarship.

My dilemma now is, I have to choose between accepting the KPM Bursary (10A+) and study in Sunway College, or wait for the possible chance to get Yayasan Sime Darby's scholarship. I'm worried that the seats for A-level at Sunway will be fully occupied soon. Their intake is in July and the deadline of registration with the KPM Bursary is by the end of June. There's also the recent change of the JPA's PCPU scholarship rules for bursary graduates.

I would like to know your opinions on my situation. I would be very thankful as well if any past recipients of the Yayasan Sime Darby scholarship can give me information (like what expenses will they cover, how many went to UK with the scholarship, bond duration, etc etc) and also tips for further rounds. Fellow applicants can also discuss here smile.gif

Just my humble opinion. If you are really interested in the course for YSD scholarship , then just go ahead for the YSD scholarship if you would like to work for the company.Read the rules for contract for the bursary program ( if there's any ) like how much you have to pay if you will not opt for bursary at last. If it's reasonable, then go for bursary first . Since YSD scholarship will send their scholars to KYUEM , which I know the registration date is 28th July , I think the results will be announced quite late...
