The grades for SPM are in A+, A and A-. But the application form only provide a choice between 1A, 2A and so on. So what should we choose?
Carolyn,
I think the administrator doesn’t aware on the changes, until they do the changes, I would like to suggest you to consider:
A+, A = 1A,
A- = 2A
Dont wait so long to submit application otherwise you will miss the dateline.
I think the undergraduate study needs A-level not SPM
James, unless if they sponsor A-Level before continue at Cambridge
so techically, i have to get an offer from cambridge, then only i can apply for this scholarship or how? quite lost in here
Yes for khazanah cambridge scholarship they want stpm or a-levels results. So i suggest to spm 2009 candidates to go here –>http://www.khazanah.com.my/scholarship.htm
and click on khazanah global scholarship under the apply now tab. Because khazanah global scholarship doesnt require stpm result.
Mira, while waiting for Cambridge admission result you can apply this scholarship first. If you want to get the offer of admission first it will be too late.
