1. I met a few great friends in my time in F6, but in general, I hated it. Is it tougher than the A-Levels? Sure as hell it is. Is it impossible? Sure as hell not. The main problem I had with it was not the difficulty, but how uninteresting and intellectually stifling it was (though to be fair the A-Levels are also criticized for that, but to a lesser extent I think). But also consider the major pros, is it RM20,000 cheaper? Hell yes. Do you stand a chance to save up to RM100,000 if you get into a local public uni as opposed to paying your way through a private one? Yes indeed.

2. I think that depends on the individual. A few hours every day is a good habit which will be needed in university anyway. I however, (for my own reasons) didn't really take it seriously, kept a vague idea of the concepts being taught in class, missed nearly 3 months of school in my final year (there were, distractions ) then crammed 3 weeks before the finals by steaming through past year questions. I got 3As and 1B, missing out on Math. Go figure.

And whatever you do, please don't try to cram Math, its the easiest A to get.

In a way, maybe. But I think it has that slightly ambiguous feel where you don't really know whether you nailed it in the head or not. Math however...
