I believed all the SPM 2010 candidates already received their result either by checking it from their respective schools, via post and SMS.
Thus, the next level is to trying to get themselves to another level which is the tertiary education and due to the limited spots, there would be some of the candidate’s application will be deny.
In this special post; dedicated to those SPM leavers and considering to continue their study; I will give you some tips on how to gain a place in the tertiary education.
First, you must know your result and the requirement aggregates for the course that you want to apply is on par or above. This is because if you have a lower requirement, your application would be denied by the computer-generated-system and thus you actually has denied one chance of yourself to be in the system.
Secondly, know your course of choice and ability. Let say you love Biology and you opt for Diploma in Physics as your first option; do not do that.
You apply for Diploma in Mass Communication or Diploma in Civil Engineering because it is popular and would make you looks cool or you’re following your friends; that’s idiotic.
Diploma or any tertiary education level is actually the turn point of your life, so why you want to put in on the line and gamble?
There will be a chance that you’ll be drop out or being kick out since you cannot cope with the program itself. Then you would wasting years of your life since majority of the courses take about 3 years to complete; and you being kick out halfway? Stupidity.
The best way is know your own strength and know the minimum requirement for the result. For example, you love computer and you have a good mathematical ability plus your result is meet the requirement for Diploma in Computer Science, then do it. Although you might not like the idea but that’s one of the way to get yourself in the tertiary education level. You will love the program eventually just like I do with mine.
Third, use all the chance that you got. If there’s the application for UPU, Polytechnic, Perguruan etc., just fill in the form because in the end you will end up with many options which is good.
Plus, there would be government agencies who would open up diploma program and therefor, you need to be diligent by flipping the newspaper everyday to find it such as Aswara and Ministry of Resources.
Fourth, do not apply for courses which are very competitive and popular among the applicants if you only have a minimum requirement for it. For example civil engineering or mass communication because these are popular courses and there would be more applicants who have better results as you are; if you still want to try, I’m not stopping you.
Instead, go for the less popular but have a bright prospect such as Diploma in Plantation or Diploma in Information Management because you will be have a very high chance to get in and be together in the tertiary education. Before you even do it, identify which course which less popular and meeting your minimum SPM’s result requirement. Therefore, you will have less competition from others to gain a spot.
Lastly, for those who do not have enough credit or a just-barely-alive result; do fill in the form for Pre-Commerce in UiTM; you will have the chance in your life to make a turn point within it. You just can click to Pre-Com and choose Pra-Diploma at the left-hand side. At least you guys tried and nothing is beatable other than seeing your parents knowing you will step your feet in university although you just take Pre-Com but then it only take you six month. Afterwards, Diploma for you, baby!!!
I hope with these some tips and guidance could help you guys to fulfill your parents dream and yours too to be a UNIVERSITY STUDENT/TERTIARY-LEVEL student.
