Answer 1

G'day,

If you really have your mind made Australia-bound then foundation studies will be your best option. But as the first answerer said, if you are still not sure, then STPM is the way to go. Do not worry abt A-Level, since it is still regarded the same as STPM anyway.

One more suggestions will be to attend one of the Australian Education exhibition near your hometown and speak with the staff from the uni abt your situation. They'll be able to tell you the best way to go. Check IDP Education Australia website for the exhibitions.

Hope this helps. Good luck on your study and welcome to Australia :)

Answer 2

if u're not sure of what u want to do then do stpm. cos at least u can still get into public u. bsides u can still get around overseas since it's a government exam. but if u're really sure that u want to and are financially capable of heading over to australia to further ur studies then u proli should b doin sumthin like ausmat... (kbu offers that i believe...) don't waste ur time wit stpm. but only if u're sure! if u're not sure, stpm will leave u wit ur options open...
