If you have financial difficulties, then do STPM at home. Cost you practically nothing and you can use that to enter local government universities which you can't with A Level or AUSMAT. Furthermore, it is as widely recognized as A Level overseas and in country like Singapore, even more recognized than A Level.
I don't really have financial difficulties, as my tuition fees are paid by my parents.
My family has a tradition, that parents will not pay for their children's personal expenses after Form 5, they will only pay for their tuition fees. weird right? but can't change...they won't pay us...
My siblings and I worked in my family's company during school holidays, and earned some money for our personal expenses at college/university.
My sister and brother went to KL to take their Pre-u too few years ago, but their rental fees were sooooo much cheaper...like 200 something...
I don't like the system of STPM... and it'll be better if I take up a-level/ausmat/sam/hsc as my parents will send me to Australia after my pre-u course, they own a house there, so accommodation is not an issue.

500 [3 persons share a room] is too expensive for me, as I intend to spend about 600++ per month in KL, I can't spend much than that, because I've to save money. 100 is definitely not enough for food. Why there's no small single room for female students, it's much cheaper, only 300.
btw, I'll try to deal with my parents, as it's really hard to find a cheap room to rent....in the city...

MCKL is a good college, the only bad thing is the accommodation is too expensive. (i think)
