Tough. Statistics are available at MPM websites which show that percentage of candidates who got Band 6 is always around 0.2% or less.

It's possible, but not probable. Band 5 is usually enough. After all it isn't like MUET is very widely recognised.

This statistics Here is for the year 2016. For March 2016, while for each paper the number of people scoring Band 6 is a bit bright, only 0.05% of people of 58,093 candidates got a Band 6 for the overall paper. You can get more on MPM website.

Why did I copy back your comment? LOL
I was thinking to take IELTS since MUET is only acceptable in Msia but yeah just give it a try

Have you taken MUET before?

It is possible. Not easy, but possible.
During my time in form 6... only 1 person managed to get Band 6 out of 100+ STPM students...

Some students even said IELTS/TOEFL was far easier than MUET...

Yes I have. MUET is tough, much tougher than the IELTS/TOEFL sample papers I have tried.

From all things I have heard and from my friends who have sat for both, I can say MUET is definitely tougher. The only tough part in IELTS is probably the time allocated, but MUET also has very difficult time limit imposed. And MUET is damn boring. The comprehension questions and paragraphs have an incredible soporific effect that could doze you off.

Hmm, that's weird.
MUET should be easier than IELTS but when I look at the test fee, IELTS is more expensive

IELTS is only expensive because it's UK-based. No one I have known has ever said IELTS is harder than MUET.

When was your time when you're taking that test?
Did get band 6 too?

Nope. Test fee is not correlated with the difficulty. MUET is tougher than IELTS for me. I took both papers. 3 times taking MUET and always a band 4 for me. Took IELTS once, and I scored band 8.0 without attending any classes.

For me the Speaking test in MUET is very unpredictable. They don't actually test your fluency but rather your arguments and some questions presented is quite weird (for me I guess). There was one time I had to argue on which household item is the best and I got an iron. Their speaking test also relies on your team mates, if they face difficulty to present their opinions, you can't create a dynamic interaction between everybody.

Maybe taking IELTS is the best.
Did you score band 6 in your MUET?

Why 3 times in MUET?

I was trying to aim for Band 5.

I only got Band 5 in 2002.

Whoever gets band 6 in MUET is a pure genius. LOL

That's quite impressive.

Lol, got a Band 5 in 2007.

Great.

Show off.
Have you taken IELTS before?

Yeah me too. That's why la I post this msg.
