poobalan reply on May 15th, 2009:
you can try appealing the IPTA result, but have to be fast. other than that, try sending a copy of your application to mic for reference. maybe the course you chose was tough. what did you apply for?

Can you give me a detail about what should I do to repeat the Physics paper on SPM exam?
Did I need to go to the school like other people with wearing a school uniform and then study for a year at the school or just sit for exam on the Physics exam day?
Reply
poobalan reply on May 19th, 2009:
you should register at PPD in your daerah. Then, you can choose to study yourself and just go for exam at the school, or join tuition center for better focus. no need to go to school again.

Hi Carol,
The application for KPLSPM 2010 (studying for teaching after SPM) is yet to open. you need to refer to http://www.moe.gov.my and local newspapers for the date. I expect it should be when SPM results are out.
meanwhile you can read some info here:

HI SIR. I HAVE COMPLETED MY ADVANCE DIPLOMA IN ACCOUNTING (WESTERN SYDNEY INSTITUTE OF TAFE)(1999) FROM TAFE COLLEGE SEREMBAN. WHEN I APPLY FOR GOVERNMENT JOBS ITS REJECTED. SO I WROTE A LETTER TO JPA TO CONFIRM AND THEY REPLY THAT THE COURSE & INSTITUTION WERE NOT RECOGNIZED.
IM INTERESTED IN GOVERNMENT JOBS.
SO, WHAT CAN I DO?
BESIDES THAT, I WOULD LIKE TO FURTHER MY STUDIES IN ACCOUNTING. ANY CHOICES?
Reply
poobalan reply on February 2nd, 2010:
Hi Uma,
If the cert is not recognised by JPA, you can’t use it to apply for govt job. You options – apply for govt job using SPM results (meaning clerical level) or study some recognised course and then apply for govt job.
Accounting options – either degree in accounting or take professional course like LCCI/ACCA. you can try some of the local colleges to see if then can accept your advanced diploma and possibly reduce the subjects you need to take for completing degree. Try SEGI, ATC, UTAR, Brickfields College, TARC. Refer to my “related website” page for link to ACCA Global website to see which colleges/uni in Malaysia are registered.

Dear sir,
Now, I’m apply for PERMOHONAN KEMASUKAN KE IPTA – SESI AKADEMIK 2010/2011 for stpm 2009 examinee.I found so difficult to chose the 8 pilihan,cause they give us too many choice(about 200).I seen some course with kepujian but course didn’t.This make me confused,please give me a little helps.
Reply
poobalan reply on February 5th, 2010:
Hi Weyan,
obviously there’s many courses to choose because there’s many students with many interests and there’s many careers/industries in the world. you can expect everyone to study medicine, engineering, accounting, law only, right?
i suggest you narrow down to only 1 or 2 career options and see which uni offer those programs.
honors usually mean you end up doing a thesis in the final year. a thesis (or dissertation) means a short project related to your study. it takes up to one year (two semesters) involving research and report writing.
Reply
Weyan reply on February 8th, 2010:
@Weyan, thank sir,then, why some course without honor?
Reply
poobalan reply on February 8th, 2010:
Hi Weyan,
Its just another option. Some students may not want to do thesis or dissertation, so they study a non-honors program that consists of subjects only.

Weyan reply on February 9th, 2010:
@poobalan, thank sir,in the form ask us where to have a MEDSI test,what is medsi ?
poobalan reply on February 9th, 2010:
Hi Weyan,
MEDSI is basically a personality test. Its for those planning to take up education/teaching degree. From their website:
Ujian MEdSI adalah ujian personaliti untuk menguji MINAT CALON TERHADAP PROFESSION KEGURUAN, INTEGRITI, KECERDASAN EMOSI dan PERSONALITI GURU.
Basically, its a screening to check if the candidate is qualified to be a teacher or not.

Dear sir,
Unimap seem only focus in engineering,i think it is very profesional,i considered my stpm result, so I take 7 various engineering course in Unimap. Will that lower my chance to get in to universities?
Why other universities’s engineering course listed as “saujana muda kejuruteraan…… “, but Unimap only listed as “Kejuruteraan ………”?
Thank?????
Reply
poobalan reply on March 4th, 2010:
Weyan,
Nope it won’t lower your choice. The main rule is to fulfill the Syarat Am and Khas.
Its just the listing name. Nothing to worry.

poobalan reply on March 14th, 2010:
hi unhappy,
you got 7 subjects with at least credit. it could have been better, but still can enrol in diploma programs.
i’m not sure about the stream, but i think will be science stream because you don’t have basics of accounts/economy. unless you choose PA, Sejarah, Maths, Pengajian Perniagaan.

Reply
poobalan reply on March 16th, 2010:
Hi Durkah,
your results are OK, with 5As, 2B and 2Cs. what course to apply would depend on TWO things – your ambition/interest and your results. Your top subjects are BM, Moral, Sej, Mt, Science, Add Maths, Accounts. looking at that list, i would pick math, science, add maths and accounts to be linked together, and maybe you can choose a career on that – accounting, maths, finance, management, HR, there’s so many! so, back to your interest/ambition.
UPM can get, for diploma programs. you can also try in UUM, UTM etc which also accept SPM students for diploma program. Get or not, hard to say.
other options are politeknik. all the info and links are on this page.

Sure can do diploma pharmacy. you can try in IPTA (via UPU website) which closes by end of this month or in IPTS (private college/uni). for IPTS, you can check the colleges like UCSI, Mahsa,MSU, Unikl, Segi, Masterskil, and so on. can also try searching for courses list in http://www.afterschool.my or http://www.studymalaysia.com

Reply
poobalan reply on March 18th, 2010:
hi maf,
firstly, you must enrol in foundation program. you cannot do a degree in medicine directly after SPM. There’s a list of colleges/uni offering medic in the Lists page ( http://poobalan.com/blog/education-help/list/ ) and a list of placement companies in the Related website page ( http://poobalan.com/blog/education-help/websites/ ). pls check the lists.
the ipts won’t provide loan or scholarship, except may for foundation program, and even then, only for top students.
the companies of course won’t provide scholarships/loans because they are small companies that depend on commission from student recruitments. some companies can help you to apply for scholarships, that’s about it.

diploma course is for SPM leavers while bachelor is for STPM leavers. So if you want to do diploma you have to apply using SPM results.

what do you want to do after studying? do you think the 1.5 results can be improved? have you identified where is the problem that caused the low pointer? if you are confident, then can redo STPM, but if not, then better look at other options, depending on your ambition/interest.

hi shasikala,
what’s your ambition/plan/interest?
your sciences results not good, so maybe you should consider IT, management, business, law, communications, hospitality, nursing, etc.
you can either do diploma or foundation programs.
you can apply for politeknik.
and yeah, can do form 6, but you have to consider doing in arts stream.

poobalan reply on April 8th, 2010:
rotuham,
you have to get it from their marketing staff or counsellors. just say you are interested to enrol, but like to know about the passing rates of the students. so ask if they have any printed material which highlights their student achievements. colleges do take out full page advertisements in newspapers when their students do well.

Reply
poobalan reply on April 11th, 2010:
hi ash,
you are qualified. you can either enrol in local IPTS, or go to foreign universities, or take STPM and then apply for IPTA.
for local IPTS, there’s plenty of uni who offer foundation course before continuing in pharmacy degree. you can check in websites like afterschool.my or studymalaysia.com for list of local IPTS offering pharmacy.
for foreign uni, some allow you to take the foundation here and then continue overseas. there’s a list of agents who handle student placement on my Related Websites list.
for the STPM option, well, just go to form 6, and score 4As if can.

hi komathy,
can you answer two questions?
1. what is your ambition or interest?
2. why do you think both times you did not do well in SPM? can you identify the reason?
since you have applied for jtm and kolej komuniti (good choice), then i suggest you wait for the results. in the mean time, you must try get a credit in BM, english and maths at least. these are critical subjects which may be needed when you want to study diploma or degree later. just focus on these 3 subjects for this year or next year (even if you get place in ILP or kolej komuniti).
let me know if you need more info.

hi unlucky girl,
yes you can study part time. since you are temp teacher (in primary school?) why not apply for kursus dalam perkhidmatan or something like that whereby you will get a degree in education? talk to your HM or senior teachers in the school.
you can enrol in OUM, or UNITAR or UNISEL which offer degree in education.
your results are ok since got minimum 3C.

hi ash,
obviously if you have the means and interested to study in overseas (australia/NZ), SAM will be better option as its shorter and relatively easier than STPM. STPM is mainly taken by student who intend to pursue study in IPTA, who really looking for academic challenge, or those who prefer to study in govt school for lowest cost.
