advantages
can go local Uni
save $$$
recognised else where
provide you with a solid foundation for your degree
sch teac..being spoon fed for the very last time
disadvantages
practically none other than it is quite time consuming
I don't agree with form 6 being spoon fed. We might have teachers to teach us dedicatedly but most of the time we are on our own. Teachers are there to guide us. It's like lecturers in college. If we are able to find our own info so that we can score. Teachers are there to let us understand the syllabus.can go local Uni

f6 stpm is one of the hardest test in the world. serious.
the only way to get into public U.
but if u dont get to enter, then it woudl be a waste of time of half a year.
compare to 5years degree programme after completing F5.
if u straight masuk private U, u hv to prepare some $$$.
brother, it's no longer the hardest test in the world. I think the standard has dropped. It's not as tough as what people saying. I din get my 4 flat but i believe it's not impossible.. The questions are still tough but then as long as we use our brains and study hard i think its fine...the only way to get into public U.

One tip.. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE think when you fill in the 8 choices when choosing the local uni. It's very important. Choose courses that is on par with your results. with a 3.8 don't even think of putting Dentistry or Pharmacy. You will ended up with some "pertanian" course.taking f6 -- its tough,really de .. work hard hard,results still so so .. unless u r really pandai n really work hard hard til blur la =) but it do save lotz $$ .. nt tat burdening .. bt bear in mind, its quite risky oso .. hw to say? erm.. my frens who were same batch wif me , we worked hard 2geta 4 stpm , but many of dem cant get into local uni .. especially if u r thking to get into science stream as me .. in my class, nt sombong la,only 5 out of 34 ppl can get into local uni (of coz,im 1 of da '5') so wat others who cant get into uni do? dey were forced to get back to private uni / college lor .. sum course even wan dem study from diploma level again ler .. in tis field, dey r wasting $$ n time .. pity dem .. appeal n appeal pun still cant get into local uni ..

Examples :
UM medic - 4.0
Unimas medic - 3.9 if u are lucky but mostly bumis from matrix
Pharmacy in 2007/2008 intake... with a 3.92 can't enter but got Biomedic instead.
I suggest you all go check with your seniors or cousellors before applying coz this is your future.
I'm doing Biohealth Science now in University of Malaya. My course requirement is only 3.0 but lowest CGPA (STPM) - 3.5 and only 14 chinese in my course (total 32) so, if you are below 3.5, you'll be kicked to another course again!...
That's why your first 4 choices are important... THINK properly...
p/s : if you get some lousy course, i suggest you go in first.... get a place then switch course... it's how uni works. I have friends from sc faculty switching to LAW!! imagine.... that's cool huh? (provided you did well in your first yr)
