I just received their email and I have been shortlisted for their second assessment which is an hour-long Online Test held at Sime Darby Plantation Tower on 9th of June. Very far for me as I don't have car access.
Problem here is, the results of the 2nd assessment will be announced on... 4th of July sweat.gif which is past my KPM Bursary deadline. Their final results will probably be announced much later. Looks like I HAVE to confirm with KPM and accept their offer, or else I'll be taking a huge gamble.
Haiz, Sime Darby just had to announce so late. Other scholarships like PETRONAS already announced their results a few days ago. If I somehow manage to land this offer in around mid July, I still have to burn my RM1000 deposit which I paid at Sunway sweat.gif My financial status is rocky to be honest.

Hello,

At the end, which scholarship did you go for? Now, looking back after a year, are you happy with the decision that you have made? Would you have done differently if given another chance?

I am a 2015 SPM leaver. I too got the JPA bursary. I too applied for YSD. But so far no news from SD yet.

Sup. YSD is definitely the better choice. Full scholarship to study abroad and an amazing Pre-U experience in KYUEM, what more can I wish for? YSD's results are the latest to be released compared with other sponsors. FYI, I studied for a short while in Sunway under KPM Bursary before I moved (had to call KPM, talk and stuff).

Which university will be studying after pre u? What course will you be taking?
Since you have successfully secured the YSD scholarship, can you share your experience going thru the assessment/interview, and what are do's and don't?
Thank you so much
