poobalan reply on March 24th, 2009:
refer here: http://poobalan.com/blog/education-help/scholarships/ and there is a listing on perak higher education loan. Deadline is 30/6/09
No PIN number. Apply online and submit certs manually. i think no need to wait for IPTA letter. difference is that its given by different organisation. I’m not sure of the interest rates.

poobalan reply on June 18th, 2009:
hi,
let’s look at your results first: 1 A (science), 4 Bs and total of 7 subjects getting minimum credit. Your language, science and maths are having better results that accounts, economics, history and add maths. This will provide some indication of what interests you subject wise.
next, talk about your interest. what are the jobs that you think you like? is it related to calculation? planning? thinking? teaching? travelling? talking? selling? research? lab environment? taking care of people? are you outdoor person or indoor person? can you communicate well? how is your writing skills? design? driving? reading? do you have any talents like singing, painting, sports, etc?
With your results, which i would say is average, you can opt for any program (as long as you pay for it) like IT, business, social science, mass comm etc.
i wouldn’t agree that business admin has no future. it depends on where you study, what you study, and your grades. same goes for multimedia or even business tech. many students just study for sake of going college, partying, and hanging out doing nothing. for them college is just a time passing event, another part of life. in fact, college/uni is the time you increase your skills, learn new things, be disciplined, make new friends, and study to get good results.
in the end, it depends on the above two – your results and your interests.

sir,if i do asasi sains & pertahanan at Universiti pertahanan nasional malaysia {UPNM}can i continue my degree in biotech/biochemist

poobalan reply on February 2nd, 2010:
Hi Nisha,
It depends on what subjects you take during foundation and which uni will accept your foundation results. This varies from one uni/college to another. However, if UPNM offers the course, then surely you can do that degree.

hi admin, i would like to correct the information that u have written here to gayathri’s response.
matriculation program usually opens in july till oct every year-even before students sit for spm exam and the students can update the information in february the very next year.many indian students miss out matriculation programme application and regrets later. now the result is out and many are asking how to apply for matriculation whereas many students out there already made application. please pass on to many indians as possible that application of matriculation is in july. in my opinion, i think that indians students can score very well in matriculation programme and yes there are pro and con matriculation and stpm, but matriculation is quite easy compared to stpm.u r given rm2500 allowance for one year.hostel provided and matriculation has also started kolej kejuruteraan matrikulasi in penang(kedah), pahang(jengka), johor(pontian).if u r rejected for the 1st intake, please make sure very fast u apply for the 2nd intake. ususally more indians and chinese will enter matric thru the 2nd intake.please view this website for more information.gud luck.all da best.

Matric_lec, thanks for the correction and info!

oh yes, i forgot 2 include this important information.1st intake for in matriculation for non-bumi is based on the result and parents income. poorer family background and good result-better chance of getting matric. good result with parents good income, please apply also, but make sure to do rayuan and second intake if u dont get the 1st intake. many welath family kids come down during 2nd intake.that’s all for now..

hi sir…i just got my results n i got 7a 1b(for moral) n 1c(for bio)…can i still study for medicine?will be given any scholarships??is ok if i want to do a levels in utar?or is it better for me to do FIS or STPM?

poobalan reply on March 12th, 2010:
Hi sam,
7As is good, but your bio got C, which makes it not possible to study medicine in nearly all the IPTS. You can talk to agents listed in Related Websites page of this blog to see if got other options.
Scholarships – can still try.
Yes, its OK to do A-Levels or FIS or STPM. its up to you. if can afford it, go for A-Levels or Foundation rather than STPM, IF you are clear about your ambition.
