UEC holders with at least B4 grades in five designated subjects remain eligible for direct admission into medical degree programmes at Malaysia’s private universities.
PUTRAJAYA: Students holding the Unified Examination Certificate (UEC) who obtain at least a B4 grade in five designated subjects will continue to qualify for direct admission into medical degree programmes at private universities.
Speaking at his weekly post-Cabinet press conference, government spokesman Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil said the Cabinet had decided to maintain the existing admission criteria that were in place before the recent amendment to the Education Act.
“Therefore, UEC holders who meet the minimum requirement of B4 in the five stipulated subjects remain eligible to apply for direct entry into medical degree programmes at private higher education institutions (IPTS),” he said.
