Updated: 20 August 2010
For 2009, I started a section on education help from March till June. However, I continue to receive inquiries on education-related topics, and may be opening a separate blog/website on that later. Meanwhile, I decided to start the education help earlier, starting this month. I’ve also opened a Facebook Page, so readers who use FB can check out updates there.
Due to the length of the information, I’ve split the content of this page into 6 categories. Refer the categories below.

Please help me,sir.
Thank you for your attention.
hello sir,im ravin here…i sit spm for last year n my result is C in bm,bi,accounts/ A in maths/7D in add maths n pendidikan moral n fail in sejarah n science….i like to be an accountant or mathemation,so its that my result qualify n sugest me a good coarse in diploma for this result
hi ravin,
by last year you mean 2009 or 2010? is that forecast result? i’m afraid you have to get credit at least in maths.
Hi aman,
Well, regardless of you being bumiputera or not, i think STPM in school is meant for the previous year SPM students only. Anyway, the best way to find out is to call the PPD nearest to your home and ask them. PPD= pejabat pendidikan daerah. if not, then you can ask if whether can enrol as private students, whereby you study for STPM on your own or at some of the tuition centers that offer STPM classses.
hi sir,
can i know the percentage of indian doctors work in malaysia and also the percentage of indians students studying medicine in local and also in overseas ?
hi prasath,
i’m not sure how to find these figures, but some are reported in newspapers:
in 2008, number of indian doctors: 26.6%. ref: http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v3/bm/news_lite.php?id=316221
according to another report, for specialist doctors there were 19.3% indians in 2008. ref: http://mstar.com.my/berita/cerita.asp?file=/2008/3/6/TERKINI/Mutakhir/92_peratus_doktor_pakar_perubatan_keluarga_adalah_kaum_Melayu&sec=mstar_berita
as for students doing medic, i have no idea but you can expect few hundreds to thousand. locally, there’s only about 1000 places to study medic (both IPTS and IPTA), while overseas, probably about less than 2000 students doing medic.
Hi sir, I am stpm leaver and currently waitin for my results,…i wanted to pursue tesl in ipts if i didnt get ipta…but in future can i get job with d goverment as a teacher? or i s it hard to find job if i do it in ipts(tesl)?
hi nisha,
you may want to widen your scope beyond govt job because tesl teachers can teach in private schools and colleges. the opportunity is much more. also, with our education ministry always changing policies, you’ll never know what’s going to happen in future.
hi anna pls have look on http://scholarship-positions.com/ this page.. it may help u and or stud out there.. tc…
thanks siva.
hai sir im a spm leaver of the year 2009… n still dont know what to wit my results.. i gt c+ in bi and perdadangan, b+ in sains,c in bm n e for maths…. n now planing to do stpm in private school but i dont know were?? i try finding in the net but i cnt find one… cn you recoment me one may be some were in kl area thanks i need this urgent…. or maybe you cn suggest something for me… i like teaching.. thanks..
hi,
you can check with the schools for info or popular tuition centres if they offer stpm class. if you are in selangor state, you can check with the PPD, while if in KL area, i’m not sure.
you should try resit maths to get credit. do it by registering in school/ppd and sit for exam in july.
as for teaching, you can apply at any primary school near your place for temporary position, but its not easy. other than that, you can apply to MOE program, but your maths is E so won’t get.
hello anna !
cn i knw wic 1 gt market in malaysia ?
whether IT or Business (management) ?
both got market priya 🙂 it comes back to which is your interest and suits you. not everyone can do IT and IT is very very wide industry. business/mgmt is basic for any organisation, be it small company or big MNC.
i completed my stpm in 2010…so obviously i will get my result this year somewhere in march…the thing is i was in science stream (physics, maths T, Chem) but i thinking of reading accountancy… What really makes me worry is not whether i’m acceptable in university or not but do i have to really struggle and go through a hell life in uni later for not having any knowledge in accounts in pre-u studies…
thanks
hi confused,
1stly, the chance of getting place in IPTA for accounting without having taken accounts in STPM is practically nil. so, if you are looking at IPTS, then you have to put a lot of extra effort to study accounts subject. i’ll say it will be tough (but not hell!). as long as you be disciplined, hardworking, and don’t be over-ambitious (like taking too many subjects to grad faster).
@poobalan,
ermmm, how about law?? when i check um requirements they only need kepujian in bm & bi in spm…others like ukm any two subject and at least B in stpm is enough…only uum mentioned about history
IPTAs are quite clear on the requirements, but for IPTS, it varies. Generally, you can enrol with minimum 2 principals in any subject.
check out these two sites, it offers numerous scholarships from various sources…
http://scholarship-online.com/
http://thescholarshipprogram.com/
but most of it are for postgraduates…just trying to help someone out there…

Hye sir,
I was thinking of doing biomedicine in either ipta or ipts. But, my question now is.. after I graduate with a degree in biomedicine.. can I do a degree in medicine or dentistry?? Either in local university or overseas.. pls answer my question sir. thanks.
silverlight,
after grad with biomedicine, you may do a medical degree, but in most cases, given exemption of 1 year only. that also depends on where you do you the biomedicine degree and who recognises it.
