Hello, Sean. I am aware of the interview dates, and MOE has said they’ll send a notice a week or so before. My question was pertaining whether anyone had gotten the call for interview yet or sooner than expected. So yeah, please only those who have sat for selection test reply!

Sadly, not many here are recipients for Asean Scholarships Holders.
Because they only pick about 10 students from the listed ASEAN coutries for each category, that's what I heard from the last batch of students.

If you already done your SPM/O-Level already, I would suggest applying for JPACT.
If you are really keen in studying A-levels in Singapore. http://pact.sg/

Else, you can either take the easier route of joining Cambridge A-Levels.
Or, join STPM where your chances of intake will be slightly better to join NTU/NUS.

I wouldn’t say i’m keen on taking csg a-levels, and would only really take up the offer if i’m offered a full scholarship. With my current state of familial affairs I wouldnt even be able to pay for board and lodging much less tuition.. sad.gif I’m currently a chinese student in matriculation, so stpm is far off since i would have to enter next year. I guess I just want a place where i can really spread my wings, and i feel like matriculation is so limiting. Though, many would die to be in my place haha

Well if you're good enough for Matriculation, I think should be okay if you take STPM/A-Level as a private candidate after your Matriculation as a private candidate.

What you keen in studying after this?

To be honest, i’m quite lazy and complacent so I doubt i’ll being doing that. xD I’m planning to enter medicine, and i’m quite worried about my prospects, in my matriculation college, only 3 chinese people got into medicine in public U last year. I was actually taking A-levels before entering matriculation, and switching was the worst decision ever tbh. Now no money dy, stuck here jor. Too competitive, everyone 4.0 got involvement in this and that. It’s hard to stand out, which is why I hope I can get at least the call to interview.
*Lazy as in i would prolly not be able to bring myself to do two pre u courses

well I have 2 friends who gotten 4.0 in matrix, still ended up in vett course in UPM.

A-level wise, no 3- 4As/A*s hard to even enter.

Lazy also no choice, but please prepare a back up plan.
