Hello and thank you for making this thread! I had to make this account so I can reply lol. Anyways.. ive been meaning to share my situation and I ask for you to see what are my chances or any advice you can give me in regards to wanting to study in Japan.

So ive finished my SPM exams back in 2015 and also finished my STPM exams last year in 2018.. yes, there is a notable time gap cause i started STPM a bit late but i digress.

Ive been meaning to study marine science overseas and i wanted to go to Japan so much.. and Ive found the university that has it! Its called Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology. However, they have that course in the Masters level only

So thats a problem already.. but i dont need to rush i guess. Until then, i will be taking a degree here locally. Next month is the announcement of the results for those that applied for Degree studies so yeah.

A little background on my japanese, though ive exposed myself to the language for years now, i still cannot hold a proper conversation. I have built up a sizeable vocabulary and know a couple of phrases. To conclude, do you think this a good idea? To wait till my Masters to consider going out there?
