I am now considering to join Inti Penang AUP program. But not sure if that program is suitable or not.

Australia HSC vs A Level, advice please

yygo — Wed, 11 Dec 2013 16:46:48 +0800

Hi,
I have just finished my SPM. I was wondering should I do Australia New South Wales HSC or A level ?

I understand the HSC is faster by about 6 months. Is it accepted by all universities in UK or just some of the universities in UK ?

I have read threads saying A level is more in depth. My father has not confirmed if I will go to Australia or UK for study. So I am trying to gauge if HSC will allow me to enter UK universities. We heard the cost of studying in UK is much cheaper than Australia. But Australia probably has more job opportunities.

Thanks!
