Options

*sigh*

I decided that I'd better start posting stuff if I wanted to remain affiliated with this blog....

Anyway, as you can see from my heading, this post is about OPTIONS.
What options?
Well....
SPM results are (supposedly) coming out this week. So, many of us who are nowhere yet have to start thinking about going somewhere....
Therefore I'm attempting to list down the options available to us post form 5 students for further studies in the hope that it'll help some of you guys out.

First of all, and probably the most unpopular option for most of you guys, is Form 6. (Yes, I hear the groans...) Form 6 means STPM, therefore it will be tough. However, it has it good points.
Firstly, Form 6 is actually a great course. You'll probably learn more in Form 6 than in matriculation/A-levels/foundation or any other similar course. In fact, my dad, who lectures in UNIMAS, tells me that Form 6 students usually are WAAYYYY better than the rest in university. They top their classes, and generally have a much easier time in uni.
Secondly, Form Six is (almost) free. Thus, those of us who don't get scholarships and don't have enough money to go anywhere should not dismiss F6.
Also, F6 is one of the only two ways to get into a local public Uni (the other is matriculation). If you want to go to local public unis but can't get into matrics, go for F6.
The problem with f6 is:
1. You're second choice students for local public unis after STPM. Unis will draft in matricuation students first (they're the first choice), f6 students second, so you might have a problem getting into uni if your STPM sucks (or even if it doesn't- everyone knows of straight A's students not being able to get into medicine).
2. STPM is hard. REALLY hard. Be prepared to work like dogs if you choose f6. Not only is it hard, the government actually LIMITS the number of students that can get an A in each subject. So, if there are only 1000 A slots for Bio, then you've GOTTA be one of the 1000 best Bio students in M'sia to get an A.
3. You're stuck back in school. You lose all the glamour of college kids. Your freedom will be seriously curtailed (hair, uniforms, the lot).
I'm sure you guys can add more, but i'll move on for now...

Option 2: Matriculation
This one's pretty straightforward. You apply (if you haven't, tough luck, i'm not sure you get a second chance), you get in (most non-bumi citygoers won't), spend a year in a crappy matrics college with crappy teachers and do a (relatively) crappy course, then you get to go to the local public uni of your choosing. Plus, if you get in you're almost guaranteed to get a 4.0 CGPA, and the course is free. However, you'll probably have problems catching up in uni.

Option 3: A-levels
I know quite a few of you guys are going for this one. You sign up with a local or overseas private college such as Swinburne, Sedaya, Taylor, or Sunway, get into the course, and upon graduation go to a local or overseas private uni.
Pros: It's quite a good course, and you get to experience college life (and its freedoms). You have plenty of options after completing the course, and with good scores you can get into prestigious unis almost anywhere (assuming you have the money).
Cons: If you go straight to work after graduating with a degree from those colleges above, most employers will regard you as second class and you'll have to start from the bottom. So you might not get into the career of your choice. You might not even get in, as most employers prefer students from more prestigious unis, unless you can prove your competence.
Besides that, the course is expensive (private colleges mah...). Your parents will have to shell out something like 20K to 30K a year (i'm not sure about that figure, maybe some of you guys can help me out there), unless you get really good grades or a scholarship with those colleges (i hear Sunway will give a tuition fee waiver for those with 11A1s and above, meaning you just have to pay living expenses). In short, this is an option for those who are better off.

Option 4: Foundation
With this course, you skip the STPM/A-levels thingy entirely, and go straight into getting ready for your degree. For example, you can get into Foundation for Mechanical Engineering at any number of unis. Thus you can skip all the unwanted and unneeded subjects (except for the government required ones like Moral, of all things...), and study only what each required for Mech Eng.
Pros: This is sort of a fast-track option. You save a year, so you'll start making money a year earlier than if you take STPM/A-levels. If you already know what you want to do, with Foundation you can get straight into it and cut out (most of) the unnecessary crap.
Cons: It's equally as expensive as A-levels, unless, again, you get scholarships (like Jave and Rich). Also, if you do the course halfway and decide you don't like it, you're in deep trouble. So make sure you're really into what you're in.

Option 5: Overseas
This one differs with the country and with the individual. I'll go by country.
Australia
Plenty of ways to get to the Land of Down Under....
If you've got cash: Just sign up with any public/private colleges over there. If you get accepted, you're in, with only minor other problems to settle. It's expensive though, total cost can reach RM1 mill, depending on the course and the uni (1 mill's for medicine).
If you've got PR: I'm not a hundred percent sure about this one. But I think you'll have to go through 12th grade, take the school leaving exam (SPM equivalent, minus a lot of subjects and stress), and go to college. It's MUCH cheaper than if you're a foreign student.
If you've got neither: Then I'm afraid the only way is to get a scholarship or a student grant. More on that later.
New Zealand
Pretty much the same as Australia, save that in the land of Down Down Under you take 13th grade instead of 12th (if you got PR).
England
Pretty much the same as Australia and New Zealand, except you can't get PR there (I think). The only way you're getting there is with LOTS of cash or a scholarship. However, as far as I know, quite a few Malaysians (Sarawakians, in fact) have gotten into Oxford/Cambridge, and are doing superbly, so maybe it isn't as hopeless as you think.
Can't say I know too much about the three countries above, so those of you with more info, help me out here....
The US of A
Now this one, I know a lot of.
To get into USA ain't that hard, really... (unless you've got a name like Osama bin Laden)
If you've got money: Same as always, a lot of colleges will be more than willing to accept you if you've got cash. You just need to fulfill the requirements (more on that later), apply, and voila, you're almost certainly in.
If you don't have money: Then you'll need what the Americans call financial aid. Quite a few colleges and unis offer these, assuming you can get them to like you...
Well, to get to the US, you'll probably have to take a couple of exams first: the SAT 1, SAT 2, and TOEFL. They're almost a must if you want financial aid, and most colleges/unis need them (the requirements I was talking about earlier). These exams can be taken IN MALAYSIA. Yes, that's right, you don't have to fly all the way to the U.S. for them. You'll probably just need to go to KL. In fact, I took my SAT 2 in Kuching itself.
The SAT 1 is sort of like an IQ test-Vocab, critical reading, math, & writing. SAT 2 is a subject test- Bio, Chem, Add Math (they call it Math Level 1&2), History, Eng. Lit., and the sort. TOEFL is a Test Of English as a Foreign Language. Pretty clear cut. You can sign up for these tests online.
Actually, even before you take these tests, you should check out the uni you want to go to and see what they require. Most require you to take these tests, but some don't. Others even accept A-Levels as an entry score. So check out the unis first.
So after you check out the unis and take the tests (if required), you apply and hope to get in. For those who need financial aid, you'll have to fill in (a LOT of) extra forms. Your chances of getting in depend on your test scores, your school reports, teachers' recommendations, and others, including your entry essays (yes, you'll have to write a LOT of essays). Some of the higher-level unis (Princeton, Harvard, Yale, MIT) require you to go for interviews with local alumnis.
However, many of the closing dates for application to these unis have already passed, so you might have to wait another year.
The good thing about the higher-level unis (the Ivy Leagues) is that once you get in, you probably won't have to worry about finance. You pay whatever you can, they'll pay the rest (that's why it's called financial aid). A few full scholarships around, but they're hard to get.
Another good thing is you get to skip the whole STPM/A-Levels thingy and go straight into getting your first degree. However, you'll probably have a hard time coming back (you'll probably have to work during summer break) or even contacting your friends/family here as the time difference is enormous. So if you can't live without your family, don't go.
That's just the tip of the iceberg. For more info about education in USA, drop a comment with your question, or try contacting me (i'll not say how here... =P). I don't claim to know everything, though, so you might not get all the answers.

Option 6: Scholarships
This one's pretty much mixed up with the rest. You can get scholarships to do A-levels, foundation, overseas, etc. You just have to prove, of course, that you're better than the rest.
The Pros: Scholarships lessen your financial burden by a LOT (duh). Also, some of them guarantee you a job after you get out of uni.
The Cons (yes, there are cons): If you accept one from say, PETRONAS, you're stuck with that company/association/whatever for a fixed period of time. (PETRONAS is 10 years) A mixed blessing, i'd say. Your independence will be taken away, but at least you know you won't be graping (menganggur =P). Also, you'll have to accept the course they offer you (no negotiations usually), and if you screw up halfway, you might have to pay back all that they've sponsored you (big trouble).
I'll list down the scholarships I know about.
1. JPA
One of the easier one to get. Just get good grades (11A1's should do) and wow the interviewers. Apply after SPM results (online, I think, or with the school counselors). I hear JPA students in Korea even get FREE XBoxes.
2.PETRONAS
Two application dates for this one. First one's over (December). Next one's after results. This one might be even easier to get, if you're the confident, show-off type. PETRONAS is looking for leaders, so if you've got leadership, you might get it even with crappy grades. (If you don't, then bye bye...) Even easier to get if either of your parents are PETRONAS employees.
3.SHELL
No idea about this one. Probably for SHELL employee's kids only.
4. Bank Negara
They offer a couple for accountantcy and economics. Beyond that, i've no idea.
5.ASEAN
To get it, you'll have to sign up online (i think) and sit for a test somewhere in September. Application date's in April, i think. Get good enough grades, ace the test, and you'll be heading to NUS (Singapore) next Jan. Be warned, though, a LOT of Malaysian students (even some of the best) couldn't handle the stress and dropped out. Really tough course and HEAVY competition.

Those are all the major scholarships I know about. Plenty more coming from individual schools, unis, and associations, but for those, you'll have to find out yourself. Those of you who do know more, however, please enlighten the rest of us. (Put up a post, or at least drop a comment).

That's it, I guess. If anyone's got any more info, please please PLEASE put it up on the blog.
I think this post is one of the longest ever. Hope it was worth it.

Blogger? Multi-playar?

I just realized that suddenly Blogger is more fun than Multiply. Ehehehe... Yeah! You get to play around with those HTML codes and stuffs... Multiply uses CSS and I find it harder to deal with it...

Just for your info... I've changed both me and Fahri's link on this site to our new site which is hosted on Blogger. Our Multiply site still lives, don't worry and right now, we're trying to have dual personality in blogging world so, having about 3 blogs to update (including this one).

Oh, another reminder... Please!! Please!!! Change your Blogger account to the new account because it would make template updating easier and faster..

Thanks a lot...

CNY!

Another post from me! I'm having open house on the 3rd day of CNY, Tuesday, from 10:30am to 2:00pm. Actually, it's beyond 2:00pm, but I want to go to Chan's open house on that day, so maybe we can visit my house first, then we finish it at Chan's house. I'll post the map when I've time, but here's my address first.

21 Lorong Muara Tabuan 2A4, 93350, Kuching, Sarawak.

Key Physical description of my crib:
Green fence(there's two houses in my neighbourhood with green fences, but mine's a corner house)

Give me a call before you come, so I know who's coming. Besides which, you might get to meet some of my NS buddies. See you all on the 20th.

My (Partial) NS Experience

I'm back for the Chinese New Year holidays! I'll be here until 22nd February 2007, by then I'd have to report back at camp before 1700 hours. Thanks to Bros. Ivan, Fahri, Chan, Javier, and the others who took their time and effort to update this blog during my absence. Remember, this blog is our responsibility together, and as I've learnt in Character Building classes, teamwork is key. So, here's my experience so far at Bukit Saban Camp in Betong.

Initially, when I got selected, I'd thought NS was a bloody waste of my time. It was, for the first two weeks. Especially week 1. The days were spent doing nothing, waiting for the administration to distribute our clothes, settle into our respective dorms, and uncomfortably interacting with other equally-suffering trainees. For boys, or 'Wira', haircuts on Day 2, 3, and 4. Then there's also a water shortage problem in my camp during that week. Also, I missed my home and my family a lot. In fact, you'll miss the things you took for granted, like your mother's cooking, or your washing machine, or your TV/Computer/MP3/whatever. In a nutshell, week 1 was incredibly shitty. Also you'd need to get used to the food. Initially, it looks crappy, and tastes crappy. And there's absolutely nothing to do, so the waiting's really hellish. But around Day 5 or 6, Character Building/Pembinaan Karakter(CB/PK) classes start. You'll be separated into groups into separate classrooms, and you'll be stuck with those people for the duration of the CB/PK classes. Did I forget to mention CB/PK classes have two parts? Modules 1 and 2. So if you're unlucky to end up in a class full of a-holes, you're stuck with them for about 3-4 weeks. CB/PK classes are fun, however, if the activities are somewhat childish. But personally, I think I benefited a lot from them. These classes will help you look positively at NS, and that's a very good mentality to stick to. Also, you'll need to surrender your handphones for safety reasons. You'll get them back every Saturday evening, usually after dinner(I'll get back to this later). For my camp, Bukit Saban Resort, there was absolutely NO LINE there!! No Maxis, no Digi, no Celcom! Or so we thought. After some line-hunting, we discovered some choice spots where Celcom pervades. My friend Anderson, from Delta Company had the best spot; his bed had 4 bars for Celcom. Unfortunately, it seems that Bukit Saban is Celcom Territory; Maxis and Digi had no line there. Oh, let's digress a little: I'm in Bravo Company. Each NS Camp, I heard, has 4 companies, Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, and Delta. Currently, Bravo Company has a strength of 80 people; 37 'Wira', 43 'Wirawati'. My camp has about 315 trainees, with about 147 'Wira'. The 'Wirawati' dorms were up on a hill, which was crappy when it rained. Us 'Wira' dorms were near the Mess Hall, so it wasn't so bad when it rained. Back to the current topic, every evening, after the phones were returned, we'd spend a good time SMS-ing and calling and hunting lines, but up to the 3 or 4th week, we knew where the 'line spheres' were. On Sundays, every religion save Muslims would go out to their respective venues. For me, Buddhists would go to the Betong Buddhist Society temple in Betong each Sunday. Then it'd be a short trip to Betong for shopping, and then back to camp. Our daily schedule was as follows:

0500 - Wake-up Call
0600 - Assembly and Physical Training(PT)
0730 - Breakfast
0830 - CB/PK (and later) Nationalism classes
1030 - Brunch
1100 - CB/PK (and later) Nationalism classes continue
1230 - Lunch
1430 - Physical Exercise, i.e., Marching, Martial Arts, Woodcraft
1630 - Tea-time
1700 - Rest
1800 - Dinner
2030 - Night activities(vary and keeps us guessing, mostly movies)
2200 - Supper
2300 - Lights out

Basically that's what I did every day, except on weekends, where we do nothing in the afternoon for Saturdays and Sundays. And every 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month is Family Day, where your family is allowed to pay you a visit between 0900 until 1700 hours. Oh, and PT each morning differs. Each Monday is aerobics, while each Thursday is Pocho-pocho(more on that later) training. The other three days is open to the trainers' preferences. On weekends, there's no PT. Eventually you'll settle down to the routine, and you'll learn to like the activities. And every Thursday and Friday night is Religion Classes, so each respective religion gets it's own class taught by an outsider.

Thus far, I've done several of the activities:
Marching Competition(Bravo finished 2nd, but we got best Flag Commander)
Performed Pocho-pocho for Family Day last Sunday(The only Family Day with performances)
Did the obstacle course
Hiked in the forest beside my camp
Went kayaking
Did water confidence(basically an excuse to get soaked)
Participated in my camp flag design competition
Cleaned a school as part of the Community Service module
Visited a police station as part of the Community Service module

And here's so bonus stuff I got to do:
Visited the girls' dorms with 3 of my other buddies from Charlie C. to shift some stuff. First 4 guys in camp history to actually do that, I believe.
Dammed up the river behind my camp with 39 other guys so that the 'Wirawati' water shortage would stop.

Anyhow, there's lots more to do after CNY, i.e. M16 training, flying fox, and maybe more woodcraft. So, here's stuff you need to survive NS:
Coat hangers, about 8-10 is enough, but take some thick ones along for your combat fatigues(baju celoreng) because they're heavy
Soap, shampoo, face cream, whatever you need to keep clean
Bucket, how else are you going to wash your clothes?
Brush and detergent, preferably the block detergents instead of powders; easier to keep
Handphone & charger, in case the payphones don't work, which was in my case.
Book/Guitar, something to keep you busy during free periods and weekends
Blanket, the ones provided are scratchy and uncomfortable
Telephone Cards, when you don't have your phone and you need to call home
Nail Clippers and Earpicks/Buds, personal hygiene is important in a pseudo army camp
Shaver, for those who have beards or mustaches; in PLKN, it's a no-no
Padlock, for locking your locker
A towel, until they give you the PLKN ones, which don't dry very well though, but I use them anyway
Food, like biscuits, but keep them in the locker, because half of my biscuit supply got stolen when I stupidly kept it under my bed
Bottled water, when you're too lazy or it's too late to go to the Mess Hall to get some
Spare toothbrush and toothpaste
Toilet Rolls, unless you prefer washing with water
Lousy shoes, for water activities or when your sports shoes are wet
Slippers, for rest periods and showering
Alarm clock, unless you can naturally wake up at 5am
Code lock suitcase, for keeping your valuables - handphones/wallets when you bathe
Umbrella, when it rains and you don't want to spend your time washing your (newly) wet clothes
Pen, for classes and other stuff
Marker pen, for marking your clothes before you send them to the dobi
Exercise book, for rough paper
Most importantly, money, you'll need it for fares, supplies, canteen, etc

Oh, and keep your wits about with you. Choose your friends carefully, and quickly avoid those who annoy or use you. I think that's all for now.

Sheer Turnkey Pleasure. =)

Ah. Apalah. I'm not giving up, guys. Neither should you.

Just because our days as 5A students are over, that doesn't mean we should abandon the blog. I know I might sound a little bit hypocritical. I'm sure you're saying stuff like, "Aiya, you cakap saja, but you're the one who's not here for the past few days."

Well, actually, I'm having some problems with my internet connection. So, before you point your fingers at me, please...find out what's really happening.

Anyway, I just wanted to "spew out" some suggestions here.

Some guys are gonna have a Blogger's Meet at Oregano, Travillion two weeks from now. It's gonna be on a Saturday. Now, obviously, we ARE bloggers. How 'bout we meet up at Oregano and tell each other about what happened to your own self during the past month?

Plus, Kuching's own Blog-brity is gonna be there. Yeah, the one and only Kenny Sia!

Well, at least, that's what I think. I'm only saying that to make you guys come along. I think he's in KL now. He-he.

But, seriously, who's up for it? I haven't seen any of you guys since...what, Christmas? I haven't even seen some of you since the final day of SPM..and honestly, I'm tired of school-cyber-school with Haziq, Zack and Ivan.

Err..No offence, guys. Hee.

Cheers,
Fahri

5A nostalgic moments with teachers.

Hi everyone...since this is the class blog,I'll post something about the class la...duh ...whatever!....blah blah blah..Ok..here goes...I try to think any nostalgic moments with teachers in 5A 2006.

Ivan passing up his BM essay exercise book to Madam Kang Poh Sim.

Madam Kang : Yesss Ivan,only today you passed up your book ah
Ivan : errr....yea..*smiling*
Madam Kang : Maybe that's why today's weather is bad.


Isaac went out to the class for quite a long time and came back,standing at the door

Madam Kang ; Yess Isaac,where have you been for so long?

side effects of st. joe's 5a 2006 = "i miss" problems...

paiseh la.... how can one like this?! someone in perak can only go online sometimes can update this blog but somo of us here online everyday (that includes me XP) cannot do it ha?! hahaha... im glad javier did a little update (i must say although im not the owner of the blog)..

anyways.... lets see... i was wondering. since we always hang out in gangs, why dont we keep each other up-to-date throught this blog.. what do i mean? i mean update each other like you update your computer (if you dont, patut lah can kena virus... XP but mine kena also la.. but well taken care olah..) and your anti-virus program. example, if meet any of our classmates or should we say ex-classmate or even better fraternity brother anywhere, you ought to ask about their life, what's up, working or not and stuffs like that... so that can post up here and if there are those working, maybe we can pay them a visit sometime..

for your info too... im hanging out with fahri, haziq shahren and zacky in school on tuesday and thursday morning. it depends on whether we going also lah... currently, we've been goin every week sonce school opened although i did miss few times.. hehee! wanna join us for some counter-strike or DotA, no problem. wanna join use for some bball, no problem. we sure would like more to come...

so far.. other than meeting fahri, haziq shahren and zacky.. i've met jonny, chan, kelvin, alfred, haziq and afiq, matt, asyraf and (this three... every week one.. XP) isaac, david and jia wern.. i miss the rest of the class.

i miss futsal. i miss recess after pj period. i miss the time we sing in class and play guitar. i miss homework (oh my gosh!!!). i miss the times spent kicking the ball behind the class. i miss (honestly is the best policy!) making fun of the school rally. i miss coming into class late. i miss getting tegur by pn.kang about my bm homework (and how sarcastic she was when i did pass it up). but one thing i miss the most.... (hahaha!!!) i miss kena and watching zul creeping up behind someone and make that "hei! gimme your money or i kill you!!"

i miss everything i had in st. joe 5a 2006... what teacher say: "one of the worst or the worst batch of form 5a" what i think and believe: "it is the BEST in the history of st. joe!!!!"

F*** it

;P

wassup y'all?

WTF dudes....

Our blog is rotting.... *sniff sniff* #sobs#

Actually, I'm supposed to be doing my 10 page long Physics report but I'm sacrificing my time just to give this blog a jumpstart.

If nobody updates, I will.

Anyway, a lil peek at my life at Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP).

It's still very exciting for me because not yet settle down....

Joined a club called International Culture Club (ICC). Joined break dance and hip-hop dance classes (both under ICC).

My f***ing hostel (called village) is f***ing far away from the academic blocks. It's 15 to 20 minutes away. And every weekday I have to walk the entire way.

Some may say: It's good exercise mah.....

I say: You come to UTP and walk with me everyday first. Under hot sun under rain. Then, you tell me it's good "exercise".




Sorry. I must apologise for using our class blog as an outlet to vent my dissatisfaction with my predicament, which is being placed in Old Village 5. (My block's called Propana.)

Anyway, Happy (belated) Thaipusam. [it was yesterday -1 February- if any of you missed it]

Happy belated birthday to Isaac, Chan, Shaun, Ian, Joel. Sorry if I missed out on anyone.

Happy early birthday to Haafidz, Asyraf, Kelvin Fong, Darren. (By the way, at least the birthday boys' section is updated. ;P)

Until next time then.
