Hopefully one day.
I have a friend in UK. He told me that many youngsters with the age around 25 already reached their PHDs and their knowledge are far better than us. Why ?
I still vote to continue to have UPSR & PMR. Examination is one of the best test to students' intelligent standard. But, the recent standard needed to be increased.

The definition of Phd is as :



... and I never mean without Phd is considered as "lower educated", but it does showing out a higher education standard of a person.

No offense .... and back to the topic, please.

I vote for "No abolish".

Is this result considered as poor ??

To make it clear ... when I meant PMR standard is low, I meant it these few years
( 2005 onwards). I know it because I have experience in education field.

ok ... ok ... if one day,a conversation between my PMR student and I.
Student - S, me -I
S: Teacher, I want to get a PhD in the future. Do I need to get a good result in PMR?
I: Not really. Just try your best.
S: If I failed ... can I still study for PhD?
I: Yes. But, don't failed in SPM.
S: I C. Must I get an excellent result in SPM?
I: Not really. A result around 4A or more is good enough.
S:Ok. Understand. PhD and PMR is not directly related, right?
I:Well ... * pause*. Yarr .. h
S:Why should I study PMR then?
I:It's just a process towards SPM.
--------------- *hahaha ... just a joke* -----------------

I still agree to have UPSR and PMR, not matter how, students must go through it.

I don't know. Is their paper easier ?
90% of bumis ? whoa! that's a very high percentage.
