It doesnt matter if MOE doesnt recognize it. The cert is awarded by the Cambridge exam board, not our MOE. A lot of students are taking A-level as private candidates.

May i know how much is the tuition fees for this intensive program ?

You are right but A-level is just a pre-university qualification to enter degree course. Nobody would use a pre-u qualification to apply for jobs. As long as the degree is recognized, working in Malaysia is not a problem. I doubt private universities and colleges wont accept this, even the prestigious NUS and NTU of Singapore accept this qualification.

I would like to know when did MOE mention that A-level program duration must be at least 9 months. I cant find anything about that on MOE's website.

Things are different when the students take A-level as private candidates. I know a person who studied A-level himself within 6 months after his SPM and sit for the exam on June. British Council did not ask for any past academic qualification. He is doing fine in UK now. Btw, I think the certificate of A-level doesnt state which institution did you attend.

I assume Intelligent Zone works as a tuition centre for students to learn the syllabus of the subjects. The students would need to apply for the exam through British Council as private candidates themselves. Basically, it doesnt matter if the institution is not recognized. If British Council in Malaysia is allowed to provide examinations to private candidates, the qualifications come from the exams are obviously recognized in Malaysia. I believe universities/colleges that provide A-level are inspected by British Council before they could provide it. British Council holds every rights in providing A-level examinations here. Those universities/colleges dont receive the exam papers directly from CIE, British Council distributes to them.

You cant blame her for that. I dun think she knows about A-level examinations well.

As long as those subjects dont clash with each other on the timetable, why not??

you can opt for alternative written paper as a replacement for practical work..
