i heard this place offers A levels..

anyone studied there?
think its a good place to learn A levels???

i like the location coz its not so far away from where i stay.

http://www.ktj.edu.my

I heard my friend said the total fees for KTJ's A-level is around RM80k++.

wow!...that's a lot of money

ermm the website says its like 8.5k per semester..?

but they didnt mention its for A levels or what la.

well if u get the scholarship frm the coll fees will be halved... so around 40000.... but quality of education there is quite high according to my fren whu's studying there...

8k possible la..80k ??! got wrong info or not ??
Malaysia kolej + not famous wor..
possible or not ?

it's a boarding school.......based on the boarding schools in uk.....in fact, the headmaster is an angmoh......the fees includes the boarding fees........

it is an elite school (eg like garden international etc), so those who talks about expensive fees, this is out of your league........

but for parents who contemplate sending their children to the likes of concorde college in uk (200k for 1 1/2 years), this is an alternative.....

Cannot be 80k la...
At such remote area..
I every week also pass by, from Nottingham to Seremban and the other way.

Hey, the most expensive degree course in Malaysia belongs to Nottingham Pharmacy PhD 2+1 split scheme which is at about 80+k and also to Monash Medicine that comes around 80+k per year.

Be rational.

You won't be selling a Honda City (read A-Level) for 130k when most people (Taylors, Inti, Sunway) are selling at 90k but still providing the similar quality and some lower quality but at cheaper rate. On business thought, 80k simply doesn't make sense, not to mention it's at such remote area.

If it's near, then pay a visit to ask for it la.

But, their reputation is very good, producing very good students every year. Not sure with statistics though.

they are not expecting people who compare them to taylors, inti etc........like i said, this is a premier boarding school, modeled after the elite boarding schools in uk.........

there is also strict discipline, like all boarding schools......curfews, light outs etc......definitely NO dota at 1am and mamak at 2am.......

the clientèle are mostly families who want boarding arrangements, and want strict discipline for their kids, as an alternative to uk boarding schools......

total fees (tuition and boarding) is rm15k/term, and a levels will be a 5 term programme (starting Jan), so total fees is about 80k........which is still cheaper than similar boarding schools in uk, which would be cheapest 200k........

Er, what does being in a remote area have to do with anything?

There's something I need to clarify here. KTJ isn't one of those commercialized pre-university mills like Taylor's, HELP, INTI where middle-class kids flock to. KTJ is THE school that all those Datuks, Datins and high-ranking politicians and royalty send their children to. The students there eat gourmet buffet on a daily basis, laundry [washing, drying and ironing] is done and delivered the next day for them, and they're the upper crust kids who have limousines to come pick them up when it's vacation time, and they actually have maids to help pack their stuff up for them before vacating their rooms.

RM80K+? Peanuts for this kind of people.

The only non upper-crust people who study there are the ones who got a scholarship/fee waiver.

Wow, sounds like the prestigious school seen in the Japanese Anime. Ouran?

LOL..

Sorry for the mistake for my earlier post.

i have been there before,

RM80k for sixth form(a lvl)

school RM65K

Like Glassy said, it's a prestigious institution. The sports they play ain't common too. I heard they do horse-riding(polo) for sports.

It's basically like Harrow and Eton......

I presume the quality of edu would not be of the same standard as H & E.

Off Topic: Just for interest, are you from Johns Hopkins SOM?

What makes you think that I am studying there?

just very rich ppl can afford their kids study thr..
but..tat is not study already..is like vacation at thr = =

It states there at the 1st page of the "Calling All Medical Students" thread. Just wondering is it a joke or not.

Yes. RM 89,400 / year for sixth form(A LEVELS )

With such architecture and design…

And it’s famous for sending many students to reputable universities such as Cambridge , Oxford , Harvard,…

Not sure "KTJ" can bring you to Harvard.
That one might need SATs?
The recent ones I heard students getting into Harvard was Kolej Yayasan UEM.


KTJ is doing EdExcel A Levels not mistaken.
Cambridge, Imperial and Oxford normally you will get accepted. If you Personal Statement did well.
