Proper guidance is always crucial for the student as their learning process

KUCHING: UCSI University offers Cambridge GCE A-Levels and the intake for July is now in progress. At the same time, UCSI University Trust offers scholarship for students who obtain excellent results in Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM). 

Based on a recent article, the number of the students using Cambridge GCE A-Levels qualification is increasing each year. Research shows that a level of awareness among the society about the impacts of Cambridge GCE A-Level to learners especially in providing a brighter future pathway. There are more than 450 universities accepting Cambridge GCE A-Levels in United States alone as their top study destination. This fact is supported by Cambridge International Examination’s (CIE), recent research study on how the qualification (Cambridge International) helps to prepare students for university. 

The research shows that Cambridge International A-Levels is distinct from other programmes because it emphasizes skills, especially critical thinking during the learning process. Furthermore, the programme develops knowledge of narrow spread of material in greater depth and promotes advanced writing skills, particularly the ability to structure and defend an argument, rather than large amounts of detailed recall. The findings contribute to the concrete reason on how Cambridge A-Levels gives a positive impact on ‘university-readiness’. 

Cambridge exams also have an impact on classroom practice both on teaching and learning. The argumentation skills, both written and verbal emphasized by teachers require students to write more where it will help the student to prepare themselves at university in the future.
