At Pathway Match, we have an in-built auto-check function which matches your academic results to the minimum entry requirements stated by various colleges and universities.

In general, students who wish to pursue a foundation course in medicine would need to attain, at least, a ‘B’ in Biology, Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in their SPM examinations.

Local students could obtain PTPTN loans to pursue higher education courses for as long as they are recognised by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA).

The exception applies to various international pre-university programmes. They include A’ Levels, AUSMAT, SAM, ADTP, and CIMP.

The amount of PTPTN loan eligible would vary based on 3 key factors:

1. Household Income

2. Field of Studies
   For instance, the loan disbursed for a degree course is higher than a diploma. In addition, the loan disbursed for courses in the medicine field, namely, dentistry, pharmacy, and nursing would generally be higher.
3. Choices of Universities
   The loan disbursed is higher if a student chooses to pursue his studies in private universities as compared to public universities.

After you receive your trials or actual SPM results, you may search for your own preferred courses offered by reputable local and foreign universities. Here, with Pathway Match, we help you by:

1. Offering courses that you can pursue and their entry requirements.
2. Charting your educational pathway.
