as a sister, I want to give a little hellp to my beloved sister at school, who will undergo spm this year..
IPTA
1. In order to draw your pathway to obtain a degree, you either need to undergo foundation programmes, diplomas or matriculation or maybe stpm(an unlikely choice, going back to school again?)
- diplomas are usually 3 years, have a more relax and non-compact schedule of classes compared to foundation or matriculation. Well, fyi diplomas have less risk than foundation programmes. Its just that it take more of your time. There are students who got straight A's in spm which choose to take diploma as they are not willing to take the risk of foundation programmes.
-What are the risk of foundation programmes? First, once you fail in a semester, you will never be accepted in upu system, forever. Yes! I mean forever. So there are students who fail then take diploma programme. Well, it just that you waste one semester. Even if you repeat the semester, the system will never accept you back. Plus, you will have to attend a compact schedule of classes, tons of assignment. You will be tired for sure. especially if you take foundation programmes at UiTM. Well, if you take foundation at UIAM, the system is just different.
- For UIAM foundation programme, first you have an arabic and english test, if you pass excellently you may take only 1 year and a half period of foundation, or if not 2 years. For 2 years, the timetable are not as compact as people who had foundation for 1 year. They have 2 subject for every semester, I think so.
-For matriculation, I think all of u.s have got the info about it. So, good luck guys for spm! make us nova proud!
