I don't think there's such need to abolish UPSR or PMR. Since primary school students have studied 6 years, there should be a formal examination to certify their academic achievements. UPSR provides a clear aim for the students, although studying is not solely to score in exams, but it too provides mental preparation for the students for their future exams such as PMR or SPM. Though people now don't actually care about UPSR, but in my opinion it's important as it can promote positive competition among students, as well as setting a standard for the secondary schools to sort the students according to ranking or result in classes.
UPSR/PMR should not be taken as a kind of extortion, it should be taken seriously! But I don't think there's such need for UPSR leavers/Form 1 students to get any scholarship, since Form 1 doesn't really have much fee to pay except some annual fee (since textbooks now is already rented by the government)...

QUOTE(CuteSanSan @ May 26 2009, 10:50 PM) Bro i wish to corect part of ur statement..yes..form 1 there is nt much fees student hv to pay..bt hw bout thoz who wanna go to private school? getting a scholarship cn save $$..y not?  Among 10 form-1-student-to-be how many will go for private school? I can say at most 1. Those who select private school are most probably the rich ones. Normal family with normal income will go for Sekolah Menengah kebangsaan or chinese private school. Yes, Chinese private school like chung hwa or Tsun Jin needs to pay monthly fee which may be a burden to certain families, scholarship should be given to those poor and eligible ones, but back to the main point, this DOES NOT have anything to do with the abolish of UPSR. I am also from a poor family, I know how precious is scholarship =) but no scholarship = abolish UPSR, that doesn't make sense at all.

Moral studies in SPM is nothing but a crap. Memorizing the 36 moral values is pure waste of time... I rather study more chapters of sejarah =)

QUOTE(CuteSanSan @ May 27 2009, 07:20 PM) yeap, students memorize it purely jz for exam, after that??? 'choi kui dou ngong' ! haha..summor the marking scheme is so tough, purposely wn us slack 1 A Ya the marking scheme is strict, although I got A1 last year XD It's easy only if you really memorized all values 100% tepat, and you know which moral value to put in each different incident. And the format sucks, must nilai, penerangan, contoh, penerangan, contoh. So stereotype! And spell wrong nilai 0 mark... My friend not so lucky, he gets all A1 except moral B3, screwed up his cert..
