Why is that ? How would you know i will give my vote to BAC ?

Erm..well, i would say both of it have the best UOL External LLB Program .

As from what i know , BAC got a excellent notes and ATC got fantastic Chart !
If both of it combine together , it would be the best law school ever in Malaysia i think .

However , HELP is doing well for its UK transfer degree .

Yeah , ilovelyn , you should take solstice818's advise . Word doesnt speaks much .

I wouldnt really worry so much in speaking test but writing and reading ....

Yes, i am not attending any courses for IELTS . Thats why i am quite worry.....

Reading is hard ? Wow...How hard is it ?

Seems like i have bad memory then ....

I find that arguable ....

I would say yes , it is the same , as what you covered in this program makes no different and as what solstice818 stated that the certificates you get will be under University of London even though you study the whole program in Malaysia .

and

I would say no as well since the standard of it being recognised might be way way lower than those who are graduated from UCL and etc.
Besides , the pre-requisites also quite low as it needs only 2Es in A-levels. Whereas you will need AAA or AAB to get into any colleges under University of London. So , there are some differences.

However , it still depends on you . It doesn't make much different if you intend to practice in Malaysia. Singapore's Legal Qualifying don't recognise it though.

May i ask , why UKM law ?
UM law has much better lecturer and reputation .
Well , as what i know , UM do recognise A-levels , dont know about UKM though.
For UM law , u need at least CCC to get enroll into their law programs .
Besides , u need you score a band 4 in MUET or band 6.5 in IELTS .
The hardest part i guess would be the interview part , u need to be interviewed .

Have you taken your A-levels ?

Pre-U as in ?

Please , dont ever take 2 , it is too risky .
I took 2 last year with the thinking that i wont fail since i nvr fail before ,haha...
I sat for AS level in NOV 2007 and got 2 passes which one of it is an "e" for sociology and a "c" for law .
When i sat for A2 levels in MAY/JUNE 2008 , I failed one subject which is sociology and that stopping me form pursue my LLB.

I was shocked and looking for solutions . There is an suggestion from my college , they advised me to resit for A2 Sociology and i almost follow their advise . However , i come across to a question . If i resit , will my A-level result be considered as 2 passes in one sitting ? No one is my college can answer that , even BAC .

I therefore made a decision to take another subject which i have confident to do it - Chinese before OCT/NOV Exams . Besides , i also took all AS+A2 together for Law and Sociology which make a total of 11 papers to make sure i will get my 2 passes in one sitting . Yes , I got to revise all those things again , ELS + Tort + COntract . I study like hell to make sure i am in the right track. I have forgotten all AS stuff and yet i have to study everything all over again . I also have to cope back Tort and Contract and A2 sociology after a holiday that last for almost 3 months. It was so suffering !!!


The results were out in last 21st Jan and i was so lucky that i finally got through , i got overall a A,Band D .

If you dont wanna get into mine situation , i strongly suggest you not to take only 2 subjects . Or you gotta have 150% of confidence to pass it .

Sociology Class has been canceled because the passing is damn low which will affect their reputation . So, they dont want their student to take it.
Just tell them what you want, and of course you have to pay extras for that. However , do notice that your fees might have already included 3 subjects , if it is , then try to talk to them so you do not need to pay for the 3rd subject.

What subjects will you taking ?

How about Business Studies ?

Is freaking low.

I thought the passing rate is very low?

[/quote]

In accordance to BAC , Business Studies is a subject with high passing rate.
The counselor there even asked me to take Business Studies and finish it in 3 months .
I didnt take his advise though. haha...

How about Accounting ? English Literature ?

Anyone here know how to count CGPA for A-levels ? I took 3 subjects and i got A,B,D.

Added on February 3, 2009, 7:01 pmI've googled and get the info that :
A=4.00
B=3.00
C=2.00
D=1.00
E=0.00

What about A-level ? The grades are in the sequence of A,B,C,D,E,UNGRADED.

So, HOW ???
NEED SOMEBODY TO ENLIGHTEN ME ....

1.Cost in terms of Living Cost ? I think it needs approximately RM150K for one year in UK .
2.For me , i would recommend HELP , TAYLORS or BAC.

Well, you can work in Singapore but you cannot practice as a lawyer in Singapore .
I just took my result last month too , My result wasnt that good as yours though and im gonna take UOL external program since i dont wanna burden my family. YOu can of course apply for scholarship but i believe you know that you will be bond .

Think of it . I rather take PTPTN loan.

Btw, im now applying for LLB in University Malaya which will definitely save a lots , approximately 20k+ 4yrs.
By having LLB from UM , I can practice in S'pore.

Anyway, i dont whether i will be accepted or not though.
Wish me luck. haha.

Hard as in the entry requirements is rather high , and of course the quota thing .
You can enter to IPTA by using STPM , A-levels(for some of the programs) .

To become a lawyer , your english may not need to be as good as Shakespeare .
However ,it will helps if your English is outstanding in understanding the law .
I shall nvr say a lawyer need to be good in English which is too conclusive , but it should be satisfiable .
As long as you willing to improve , i think English level wouldn't be an obstacle for you.

Dont worry , 2subjects is fine . But, you have to make sure you really concentrate on it .
Of course , you need to make sure you get a good lecturer as well .
Or else , concentrating may not works .

I agree. I've given my advise on not to take only 2 subjects since i am one of the victim who took 2 subjects and failed 1 and i have to start everything all over again in 4months . But, well, she cant take it as her bro doesnt allow her to do so .

So,nevermind , maybe she can do it ? I wont deny that accident might happen though . Of course , if u ask me again on whether should someone take only 2 subjects , i would still say 3 subjects are preferable.
