matric is better than form 6..do you think so?
can you give explanation?
its quite confusing for me to take form 6 or matric..

Depends how you think about matric and form 6...
Form 6 is definitely harder than matric but it gives you a strong base when you go for your degree.
As for matric,it's easy for you to get into top local uni but it gives you only a mere base and that means you need to struggle when you are in your degree.

em...can i choose pharmacy or the matriculation department decide it to me??

You will register for yourself through online after you finish your matriculation and of course if you want to do pharmacist,you must get above GPA 3.5.

if i manage to get G.P.A 4.0 in ol my exams in matrics,will de gov send me to study overseas??

I dont think the gov will send u to oversea. Becoz as far as i know the Matriks results only qualify for local uni

if i get GPA 3.5 above but i got band 2 in MUET. can i got the course and university that i want

can i go abroad if i get da max requirements afta matric life?

WE cant compare Matrics and STPM side by side, its whole 2 different things. I would be glad to help anyone who wants suggestions about it. Im currently in Matrics now and i think i've lots to say about it =p can email me at special_starz_371@hotmail.com or spot me at my blog. www.whatisgeneharn.blogspot.com Glad to help u!

There's a new field which is "jurusan teknikal".
Three new colleges for this field.
They are Pendang (Kedah),Jengka (Pahang),Pontian (Johor).
Can't make up my mind whether i should change the field from science to teknikal.
Suggestions please?!

after i finished the matriculaton programme can i get into the local private university or just only government uni?

dchan,it's up to you whether you are interested in taking technical or not.If you like hand-ons stuff,then you will find yourself prefer in taking technical.

Anonymous,people wanted to go for matriculation to get a place in government uni.I dont see any point for you to go for private uni but if you do,not many private uni will accept marticualtion.

i would like to give my advice to those who would like to enter the matriculation programme.

if you want to enter this programme, make sure you not fooling around. no love, no playing..just focus on your study.
or else, just prepare to be kick..

((i'm not being kicked, luckily i'm still allowed to continue to the 2nd sem, even my pointer was so bad. and i've try so hard. god, help me!))

form six or matrix?
which is da bez?

i am not a bumiputera...Can i appeal if i can't apply matriculation?

can I know when will the matrics approval letter will be out? and when does matrics actually start? If i do get into matrics, I'd like to take pharmacy but unfortunately chemistry is not my kinda field.

please tell me what jobs do medicine and bio-medicine have to offer if you choose to take this course? i'm rather indecisive about choosing the right course..fearing that i'll regret it. lol.

does it require of co-curiculumn ACHIEVEMENT to apply metriculation of government??

i m chinese n if i can get into matrix, my aim is for a degree in nursing. but i see the subjects in science stream did not include nursing. where does nursing come under? is it pure science or medicine? or bio-medic or pharmacy?or is it gen science, while nursing can be chosen after completing matrix when i go for degree?

Anonymous,
depends on whether you want to get into which university.
Form 6 provide strong foundation when you go into degree but matriculation only takes you a year.

Anonymous,
yes,you can appeal if you didn't get matriculation and you will get into 2nd batch if you manage to appeal.

Anonymous,
matriculation is apply during your form 5 around march. ask your counseling teacher for more information,s/he would be able to help you to apply.

Anonymous,
the appeal form will release around may after the 1st batch enter the matriculation and you should know better that pharmacy really need to work with chemistry A LOT!! So you can't give up that subject no matter what.

Anonymous,
medicine and bio-medicine are the same. you can work in the lab or be a doctor.

Anonymous,
well,i think co-co is required but the main factor is your family income.

kee swan,
nursing require science so if you get into the science stream, you could apply for nursing in the future. so not to worry about it.

hey how much is the allowance?
just to let know my parents ;p

may i know the differences between pre-U n pre-medic? I know that both ways allow me to proceed my learning in the medical line but what are the advantages when i take up pre-medic or pre-u? and do u know any colleges, university or medical school that offers pre-medic course? Thank You

i want to know about 'technical science', the new subject that start this year...

What are the subjects for science matrikulasi?

Based on the post,the subjects mentioned above seems to be the courses.

im a bumi my dads chinese and my mom is bidayuh. my result is 6as 4bs how come i dont get accepted into matrics? i thought priorities are to be given to bumis.

is it possible for me to get jpa scholarship if i got matriculation?

i got accepted into matriks but can't decide whether to go or not. I'm chinese. Is it easy to get into Dentistry course with matriks? Please help.

Elle,
I'm not sure about the allowance because it changes every year.
it's around RM250 per month if not mistaken.

Aina Izzati,
Pre-U is just a term used for the course before you enter your degree level/university.Pre-medic normally consists of Biology,Chemistry and Math subjects combination and a lot of colleges offers pre-medic course so you no need to worry much about it.

Anonymous Anonymous,
'Technical science' is basically a hand-ons course where you need to create/build something like electronics and engines.

Anonymous Qad,
The subjects are mentioned above. Basically, you can't drop chemistry if you are entering science course.

Anonymous Anonymous,
Maybe the amount of salary you entered when you apply doesn't mean the requirement of offers. Try to appeal for it.

Anonymous Anonymous,
it is possible for you to get JPA scholarship if you got matriculation provided you are a very good and bright student.

Blogger PG,
With matriks, you can enter local university easily with your 1st choice of course for your degree.So think twice whether you wan to accept it or not.

Do everybody know how to appeal for matrix2009/2008? Just enter rayuan enough..or v nid to write d letter together with slip spm&certified IC.. HELP...

How much r the allowence for matrix? spmeone told RM250,some said RM1000

My result was 10As,5A1,5A2,why i cannot get in matrix? so sad..r the reason i m a chienese? i also nid to know how to get in the place of matrix satu tahun, bukan dua tahun.. What is the difference between 1tahun dan dua tahun?

Emm.. i also want to knoe wat d diffrent between 1year programe & 2year program..apa beza saya nak tahu lah.. Tolong..

Fom 6 this year started on 11may 2009 right, matrix also..tetapi ahli rayuan diberitahu pada 22May 2009, so kami pergi fom6 dahulu? ada orang tolong saya tak..

my frez said matrix is very easy just like form 5 ..really?

Hmm. Hmm, think twice before you go there or think twice before you choose not to go there? Haha i know i'm confusing. But dentistry is a competitive course so I'm worrying. If 100% can get dentistry then sure I go because malaysia dentistry also not quite bad.

btw i think salary doesn't really add into the count because some of my friends who got through have quite adequate income.

i think that race do play a factor in getting into matrics. my friend said that they see according to your DAD's race. my dad's a chinese, which makes me a chinese and not a bumi, even though my mum's bidayuh.
as far as im concern 1 tahun matrikulasi is for those who obtained good results like maybe straight As. however for 2 tahun is for those who didnt obtain very good results.
i'm still confused though, the 'rayuan' results that they'll announce on 22nd may is for 2 tahun, is it?

Anonymous,
You just need to fill in the appeal form on the matriculation website will do.

Anonymous,
it's RM1000 per semester and matriculation only have 2 semesters.

Anonymous,
10% of the places are given to Chinese so don't be sad if you cant enter matriculation. dot give up,you still can try to get scholarship after you finish your pre-u.Normally, matriculation is only 1 year. for those students who didn't score well in matriculation, they will need to retake another year. I'm not sure whether it works like this because I don't have any information about the 2 years. Sorry~

Anonymous,
while waiting for your appeal results release, you will need to go for form 6 first.just incise you didn't manage to appeal.

Anonymous,
I don't think it's like form 5. if you think like that,then how can you survive in you future 1st year degree?

PG,
if you think you can score GPA 3.7 and above in matriculation,then choosing dentistry as your first choice wont be a problem to you.
What I meant by salary is the amount of the salary they entered during the application. they can type the amount which isn't real so that's why they can get it. One of the probabilities.

Anonymous,
the rayuan normally is for the 1 tahun matriculation.

Sorry..can anybodyhelp..if i get matrikulasi 2 tahun, i don't want can? i wan study form 6

Sori..i dont see any appeal form from the matriculation website? just clik rayuan and it said your rayuan was accept, rayuan anda diterima... enough already

hi~ i get the matriculation offer. but i get perlis. i staying in malacca. perlis is too far from malacca. so as a girl, i dun wan 2 go tat far 2 study.. cn i appeal n change d place? thank you..

Hey, I got an offer for matriculation in Penang. Its kinda good-u get to enter public unis easily and you're on top of the list but note: ONLY public unis. Unlike STPM, we can venture overseas because it is recognized worldwide.

I get enrolled into matric for science, but i hv a very silly question to ask: It says that i will violate the rules(perjanjian) if i fail to finish the programme. Then, i just wan to noe how much i must pay? And if i not go matric for registration, am i violate the rules? One more, is the perak and melaka matriculation better than negeri sembilan?

which is better? matriculation in science (perak) or foundation in science (AIMST University)

After graduated as a doctor from local University under the Matri-programe, if I intend to take-up specialties in medical to study oversea University.Is there any obstacle?

I wish to ask a question. If i get matric, but one of my friends is not. Can i get the opportunity to him/her, so that he/she goes for matric, whereas i am not.

My parent salary also RM7000,iget10As,5A1,5A2,1B3,can i appeal succesfully?

I get the offer 2 matrikulasi but i am a non-muslim. so, can u tell me more on what should i wear and bring for the matrix? Is it true that all student there only can wear baju kurung? Can i wear clothes that like baju kemeja for girl and skirt until paras lulut?

Hi everyone I would like to know are there any local private Unis which recognise this pre-U (matriculation) in medicine ? If there are, can you please kindly inform me about the name of Unis? I appreciate your help very much, thanks =)

is it really true that if u study matriks, u will surely get a place in Universiti, but if u are studying in form 6, your chances are very low? i've got matriks but i'm not thinking of goin, so any advise?

Here is my 2 cents worth of thought:
If u got offered matriks and ur not thinking of going, then why do you border to apply for it in the 1st place?? The ball is in your court. So think carefully on the path u want to take. Do u want to take the road least travelled which can make all the difference or do u prefer the well beaten track where everyone knows your name?. For one day down the road when u are old and gray and u reflect back on the long and winding road that u had travelled, u can say proudly that the decision u made then is what u had become today. No pain, no gain. U can live all your life and not really know who u really r until u can see yourself through the eyes of others! Good luck to whatever u decide on, may the force be with u always.

Are you nuts? Overdose? Out of spec? Need a shrink?
Either you accept the offer or you don't.
Clear simple and straight forward.
There is no horse trading here.
If you don't want it, Gomen will be very happy to give your place to those who begged for it.
That is Gomen call, and not yours to make.
Good luck.

1. Once your name is in the Matriculation list, your name for the Form 6 list of students will be cancelled. To reject the offer for Matriculation, do not attend the registration. Instead, go and apply for Form 6.

2. Girls are encouraged to wear baju kurung. But if you insist on wearing a skirt, the length must be until beneath your knees and it cannot be tight fitting.

3. The allowance we get is RM 1250 per semester. According to some seniors, you will only get the allowance by the second month, which is June. This is because many students will leave Matriculation for some other course.

4. By registering for Matriculation, it doesn't mean you won't get other offers, namely JPA. You may stop following the Matriculation Programme under 6 conditions(If I am not mistaken). One of which states that you are able to leave due to scholarship given by the government.

5. By entering Matriculation, your future is set here in Malaysia. You will enter a University albeit local. You may not enter the University of your choice but this is all up to the student. Score 4 pointer and who would refuse you?

6. According to a statistic that I read, only a meagre of 10% STPM students enter the local University. I don't know the extend of the truth so take it with only a pick of salt.

7. Studying far away from your home will happen sooner or later. I suggest we all buckle up and move forward. Besides, it is only a year programme. Your job now is to study and work hard in life. This obstacle of being away from home will happen. It is ineveitable.

Good luck guys!

Just wanna ask a question. Can we change course? Because I want to change from science stream to account stream? Is it possible?

can't gov repaired the facilities in matriculation college in malaysia?? specially toilet....tq....

can a matric student from science stream get law in local university?

two years prog(pdt) is rather ok than one year prog (pst) because when we are in pdt...we practise the basic knowledge of sci. stream... dont worry when u step to pst because ur basic is stronger than pst. we have much more self-confident.
so...please dont judge anymore about pdt and pst. pdtrian are well enough to live than pst... see it to believe it.

**anybody know how to get the scholar for korea.?

i have been in kolej matrikulasi perak. im malay. my SPM result only get 3A and 7B, and i see that non bumuputera which enter matix get all A1

i'm xstudent of 1 year matrix..
the between 1 year and 2nd year is study in:
1 year-you must be struggle because the PMP going to fast..you are lucky if get
teacher who want to repeating the topic we are learning..but the chance so LOW!
2 year-the learning prosess is exactly same with the 1 year but they have more time for study..more relax i think...
but for me if you get the 2 year matrix,better you choose another chance to study.. it will
waste ur time..1 year matrix also not safe if you not struggle!
about the biasiswa,i get rm1200 for 2 sem by MARA..(because i from MARA matrix)
but for other matrix i'm not sure...maybe around that..

Did u mean south australia matriculation(sam) n local matriculation? Yeap, local matriculation is under the higher ministry of education,basically u wil b enter local uni onli after 1 year course. In contrast, the South Australian Matriculation program (S•A•M) is an internationally recognised one year pre-university matriculation program.SAM is for overseas study onli.

so, which one is better? form 6 or matric

hii..~
i'm new here..~
may i ask about psychology course in matriculation..~
did matriculation have psychology course??..~
in which matriculation provide psychology course??..~
i want apply for it..~
thanks ya..~

I graduated from matrix and continued my degree in private uni. Only certain private uni accepts Martix graduates.. But I'm glad i manage continue my degree. I felt that public uni don't suit me, and I didnt get that good GPA in matrix.

I feel that everyone should know private uni doesn't mean it's gonna make a deep hole in your pocket. Many Private uni have special offer for bumiputras.(like 40% study grant etc etc) So i suggest opt for Private Uni if your results in matrix not so good like me..:(

you can still continue the course u like and not take diploma!! and can get MARA! or other scholarships~ ^^but just make sure u get 2.00 above at least !

Matriculation only have 3 course. Accounting, Hyatt(biology) and Physic. Also have law. But only 1 Campus have that, But i'm not sure which.but You can continue phsycology still after graduate matrix if u want

hello..
i was wondering , if a matric student failed to continue their studies for their 2nd sem and get kicked out from matric due to their low GPA, what should the student apply to continue their studies?? and can they apply for FOUNDATION programme once again by using SPM result ?? or there are more complex ways...?
tq..

Hey.. I find some people have mentioned that from matrix, life in uni is harder.. Let me tell you that is bullshit.. I was from matrix and now am doing medicine in UM.. The top student in my batch is a guy from matrix.. So for anyone who gets matrix, pls take the offer, unless you've already secured a complete scholarship like JPA or Petronas.... Good luck..

Hi there,

I'm in Form 4. I would like to know, what is matriculation????

matriculation is a short-cut course to further for degree.

diploma - da tempo like crawling
matriculation - like walking
form 6 - like running

~think of it

What if i probably scored bad in add maths..would i have the chance to be accepted to matriculation?

is matrikulasi recognized worldwide?later if we dun get local uni can we enter a private college overseas?

hai i would like to know is it really that hard to get into matric for a non bumi and what must for min spm qualification be? any non bumis in matrics please help....

'What if i probably scored bad in add maths..would i have the chance to be accepted to matriculation?'

There's still a chance given your overall performance is good.

'hai i would like to know is it really that hard to get into matric for a non bumi and what must for min spm qualification be? any non bumis in matrics please help....'

hey, i'm a bumi ex-matrics but i have lotsa non bumi friends during my matric days. as far as i know, most of them have straight A's with strong co-curricular backing. one of my Indian friend got in during the 2nd intake so she started a month or so, later than the rest but she managed to cope and got 4.0 for both semesters. now she's doing medicine at gov. uni. so no worries. just do your best.

Hi, Just to check for student who did not do Science stream in SPM if he/she score good results in SPM can he/she apply to enter matriculation for Science rather than Art? As the student is interested into VET studies in UPM, is there any other way to enter? i.e, pre U? A-levels? Foundatioun from private college etc? Any other option to that?

The challenge now is that the student did not do science subject in SPM but now interested into VET studies. So, what can this student do?

Please help.

Regards
DK
