Maybe "Peninsula" College was already taken by someone, so have to mangle the "peninsula" to "Pennsula" ...

More like sicklad77 mangled the name of his college and the university issuing the MBA, as can be seen from the link provided:-

Name of Qualification : Master of Business Administration in collaboration with University of Gloucestershire
Name of Institution : Peninsula College Shah Alam

Anyways, I wish TS all the best as he seemed to have lost interest in this topic even though his last login was this morning.

Not surprised. Most would ask questions to justify their decision. It is hard to accept critical comments from others. I have seen quite a number of them. Ask a question >> gets a negative response with follow up questions >> MIA

But our follow up questions weren’t even critical in nature… I mean, I feel it’s a valid concern as to why a college would accept someone with a low GPA as a candidate…. Already puts the value of the degree in question…

Teacher is treated as the lowest grade profession in malaysia, which pretty much sums up what our education level is.

With such a result, don’t think retaking will improve it. Best option is to do apprenticeship in technical jobs ie auto mechanics, bakery etc. To aim to be a teacher with such a results just indicate your nephew thought teaching/ teaching assistant a cushiony jobs. Hard to employ a male teacher assistant, majority is meant for female. You need to clean up those kids in the toilets, not fetching color pencils.
