vanakam sir, i just finished my SPM in (2010). i got spm A in math, B+ in moral 4C+in bio,chemistry,Add Math ,Sejarah ,2d in physic ,english ..i want ask some question sir, i have interest to continue my further studies as “Software Engineer “….Sir ,pls let me know what i must do now N which courses i need to take first ..??? OR its better i go 4 form 6.!!
I have some financial problem too ..
10Q very much sir..
1. i hope you know what is software engineering.
2. i suggest you resit english to get at least C, good for your future.
3. to study IT, english is very important as nearly all information you learn is in english.
4. since you have minimum 5 credits, you can take up foundation in science or do a-levels and then proceed to degree in software engineering. you should go for the reputable colleges so that can learn alot. if you feel the cost to do foundation or a-levels is high, then you can take form 6 (cheaper, harder, a bit longer time) and later try apply government uni or still can go to private college to do degree. you can also do a diploma and then proceed to degree, but i will suggest take foundation and do degree (slightly shorter time, can save up to 1 year).
5. please read number 3 above again! 🙂
vaanakam anne…i need your help as currently im doing 1st year of occupational therapy programme in manipal india. i need financial support for my course for another 3 years.. the full course duration is 4 n half years…could u advice me on this?
hi,
may i know what was your plan before leaving to india to study? how was the money supposed to come and why are you facing problem now?
Hi Mr.Poobalan, I would like to know when the MiED application for the year 2011 will be opening. I tried checking the website but the application is still closed. It is almost half year and still the application is closed. Hope u can help me on this. Thank you in advance

hi vanakam sir,i need ur help 4 my study sir…i finish my SPM (2007) n never continue my study n i going for work because my family situation like that sir….nw i like to continue my study as of bachelor of buisness management sir….bt i worried if i continue this study did i get job and i fine a goverment college….cn i have a goverment college name….and please some idea
hi geetha,
first thing: if you want to a bachelor degree, you should minimum 5 credits to enrol in foundation program, or do pre-u program (stpm/a-levels/cpu/sam etc).
second: if you don’t have 5 credits, but have at least 3 credits, then you can do a diploma.
third. to study in a “govt college” (IPTA), you have to apply via UPU (but its closed already. so try next year). another option is to study distance learning/part time (offered by upm, um, ukm, utm etc). this is more suitable if you are working.
fourth: you can also consider studying in non-govt places (IPTS). which is more expensive that govt.
since it has been four years now, what have you been doing? working anywhere? helping out at home?

hi vinisha,
do check the scholarship list at eduhelp directory. there may be some which are open for all courses, and you can try apply.
can i know why ptptn rejected your loan application and what is your results at the moment?
Vanakkam Sir,
I enrolled in Tunku Abdul Rahman College in year 2003 for the course Diploma in Electronic Engineering. I get the assistance from PTPTN for the course. However, I didn’t complete the studies due to several reasons.
Now, I m doing part time Degree in a private University. The University that I m studying now offer PTPTN for students. I asked the PTPTN staff whether can apply or not. They said a student must complete the Diploma program in order to get the loan for the Degree.
Do I have any other options for financial assistance in order to complete my Degree???
hi, one option is to pay off your outstanding PTPTN loan and then take a new PTPTN loan.
for other options, try searching at Eduhelp directory: http://poobalan.com/eduhelp
Hello sir,
I just recently sat for my spm examination. My ambition is to be a doctor. But now, I’m very confused whether I should go for foundation in science and then continue with my degree or go for stpm. But I’m also financially down. Which would be a better choice?
if finance is a problem, you better think hard. you are talking about rm500,000 or more worth of study. If you take STPM, you need 4As nothing less. if you go for foundation in IPTS and then to local/foreign uni, you must find your own resources for finance. rarely can you get a scholarship, while PTPTN will cover a fraction of the cost (for local ipts only). if your SPM result is excellent, you can apply JPA scholarship.
Hello sir,
I’m a first year medical student of UiTM. Previously, I was a matriculation student. Can I pursue medicine abroad? I mean, is there any chance of studying abroad? Some of my friends said, JPA will never sponsor to study abroad, but some said, during our second year, JPA will sponsor? If it’s true, how can I apply? Could you please tell me more about scholarship to study medicine abroad.
i never heard jpa sponsoring students of local uni to go overseas for medic. there’s loan for those who already doing medic overseas. as for scholarship, its the JPA scholarship which is open for SPM leavers. but this year, i’m not sure if will be open for spm leavers because some changes were announced last year.
Hai sir. I have sat for my spm last year 2011 batch. I have just gotten my results and I manage to score 5A+ 3B+ and 2B sir. A+ in maths, add maths, english, sejarah, moral. B+ in physics, bio, accounts. B in bm, and chem. Sir it is my ambition to become an acturial scientist. But now i manage to score only 5A’s and i have some financial problems. I need scholarship and a suggestion of yours if there is any other courses that i can do better. I have a very high interest in maths and history. At the same time im looking forward for a scholarship in your website. So sir i need your help in picking up the right choice. I hope to get a favour reply from you sir. Thank you sir. Have a nice day……..
as you may have realised, 5As means most scholarships are out of reach. some ask for minimum 6As, 7As, 8As and even 9As. some don’t look at the As but the student’s situation. you can try applying for those types.
you can consider form 6 as one option. after form 6 you can still decide on career, and whether to pursue in IPTA or IPTS.
maths based courses in IPTA/IPTS: maths, statistics, actuarial science, industrial maths, computer maths. you can also consider engineering and science since your science subjects are Bs.
for history: history, social science, sociology, law, literature, are among the common options.
vanakam sir,
sir if i want to do american degree program,can i apply ptptn and if can which tahap pengajian should i choose?
pls check with your college. if i’m not mistaken, adtp can’t apply unless your college has registered the program with ptptn.
