I can see where you are coming from. Yes, no doubt, there is no guarantee that the exemption will last. The current exemption last until this year and recently, they just reviewed it again. Whether they get the new exemption again, we will see in few months time. If they got it, then great, they just extended the exemption for another couple of years. If not, then I think the course structure they offered will be changed with the course reverting back to 3 years since the final year of the course is basically the CLP thingy.

As for your claim that the whole course might not even eligible to sit for CLP, I think that's a little exaggerate. Why? Because the way I see it is that since the first batch of mmu law graduates already been called to bar, I think it more or less signify that the course itself is recognized by bar council. At least, that's how I think it works.

Anyway, every legal route is difficult. No easy path when you decided you wanna pick the legal field. For me, I would suggest you all to take UoL. Stop worrying about the CLP first because at the end of the day, if you cant practice, you can still work as other profession in other fields. That UoL cert allows you to work overseas too.Something local uni cant offer you.(excluding UM )

Ya, that y I specifically mentioned that for those who r rich, u should study law in UK.

Definitely MMU not the only one who been granted exemption for CLP. Nevertheless, in my previous post, I had clearly mentioned that MMU is the only private institution been granted CLP exemption, while the others are local public universities, including UUM who has been granted on the same time with MMU. I didn't stop those who want to study for UoL external paper but I just showing that it was difficult. I also deliberately mentioned that MMU lecturers were not up to par. Isn't it?

Not exaggerated,as one of my relative graduated from MMU first batch in 2008/2009 also saying that he's such a lucky axx,as exempted from clp and recognised by Bar Council.He went further to stated that their degree is now even 'lower' nowadays,as you can go directly to their foundation course without the need to go through A level/STPM.
So,the risk is there,not so small that that you can ignore it all together.

Well,i think education is one thing and career is another.Even you did really well in your study,but so so in your work,then you will struggle to survive in this competitive field.
Older generation tends to fancy that the like of Lawyer/Doctor profession.But what's the big deal nowadays?Flooded with general Doctors and alike.You need to invest at least 500k,and yet you need to work for more than 15 years to get back what you've paid for,worth it?I can't/unable to answer for the time being.....

Arh... Now I see your point. Yes, the requirement to sit for CLP is that you must at least have STPM or A Level. So, it does carry a certain risks if they didnt get the exemption and you are going up there through foundation they offered. Meantime, it's safe for those entering MMU law using A Level/STPM even if they dont get the exemption. At least they can sit for the CLP.

People always say stop counting the chicken before they hatch. Guess it applies here. Its better if we stay focus on what happens now than the future. Anything can change as time passes. You might not get what you expected at the end of the day.

R u sure? If u look carefully on that website, u will realise that even UM, Singapore also not recognised nowadays. Only those who commenced study in UM before 1st January 1994, then only they will recognise. In other words, for student who studying in UM today is actually not recognised by Singapore. Therefore, none of a local university Malaysia is recognised by Singapore at now.

for llb studies, atc or bac better???confusing........

Same question from everyone eh? Anyway, few years back I would definitely tell you ATC for LLB and CLP for BAC. For now, I have heard a lot about ATC good lecturers left and one of my friend in BAC told me that BAC actually hired lecturer from UK to teach them for one month. So, if you ask me, I would say, do more survey. Pay visits to both colleges before you make your decision. I heard BAC is catching up on ATC in LLB. Not too sure myself because the last time I checked on stuff like that was few years back and a lot of things happened in these few years.

Aiyo, whichever is better really depends on ur perception. I believe that both provide world-class education just that how much a student can absorb the essence. Do more survey is true.
I do my llb as private candidate, but I did read the material from atc and bac. As far as I concern, bac notes is easier to understand (even you miss the class) but I should say atc note more details. No idea about the lecturer there, so cant give comment but I believe they must be dedicated.

Being positive,yes.But your own self knows better than anyone else who you are,what you able to and unable to do."How many 10 years more can you have in your life?"(from drama)
If you can't/unable to foresee the near future,i'd think to migrate to somewhere else.Life goes on,is that you to change the environment and not the environment that change/restrict you.

BAC is the one showing BETTER result in CLP. Even back then, they are more renown for CLP than the LLB they offering.

hello everyone!

i am having some problems with my pre-u studies before pursuing my LLB. currently,i am undergoing a foundation course called MUFY(monash university foundation year) and i just found out that it is not recognized by the Uk degree so i cannot pursue this degree. in my case,i might have to take Alevels and then pursue to the UK degree or if MUFY is recognized in KDU college UTAS programme for law.

so,my question is:
1) does KDU college UTAS programme accepts MUFY? if so,what are the entry requirements?
2) if i want to take alevels now, which colleges offers Alevels for 1 year where i am able to graduate next year june?

since i have wasted half a year already,i really do not wish to waste another 1 and a half just for pre-u studies. please help me out!

all the replies are very much appreciated. thank you

Currently struggling in choosing institution for CLP......ATC/BAC? In fact, ATC offers partial scholarship for foreign university graduates (2:1 degree) that i need only pay RM3000....sounds attractive....Any thoughts?

1) Yes. KDU does accept MUFY for the UTAS LLB program but bear in mind that you can't practice in Malaysia since your Pre U is not recognized by Malaysia Bar. There's no point if you intend to study law while cannot practice on your own country. Perhaps, you're an international student ?

2)Some of the colleges have a 1 year express intake for A Levels which you can finish it on June but there's a reminder for you. 1 year duration only offer 2 subjects which you must obtain at least 2E for both subjects. You must pass for both subjects in order to eligible for the degree. KDU and BAC would be your choice for the express route A Level program.

Hope I can help you.

i just registered mine with ATC for RM3000

Yes, i know right? how attractive ! RM 3000 is really cheap ! But BAC has a better reputation in CLP, hence why i'm struggling. Who knows i'll be seeing you in ATC ?

i don't always go to the better reputation institution so it doesn't matter much to me

Can Anybody anwer me this question?

What is the 3rd yr subject for LLB?
