Tuesday October 14, 2008

Form Three student Sarah Mazlin Zahari may be down with a severe headache but she is determined to sit for the Penilaian Menengah Rendah (PMR) examination.
The 15-year-old girl even managed some last-minute revision before sitting for the Bahasa Malaysia I paper at the Tengku Ampuan Afzan hospital yesterday.

The SMK Bukit Goh student has been suffering from headache since Sunday.
A total of 27,083 candidates sat for the PMR examination at 223 centres in Pahang.
In Kuala Lumpur, starting early proved vital for some SMJK Confucian students who left the exam hall beaming with excitement after sitting for their Bahasa Malaysia I and II papers.
Among them were Lai Chen Yee and Chong Kok Cheun, both 16, who started preparing for the PMR examination months ago by revising past years' questions.
"It wasn't so hard this year and I'm confident of doing well," said Lai.
"The first day of the PMR was good for me and I hope it continues this way," she said.
A statement from the Education Ministry says 472,060 students are sitting for this year's PMR at 3,458 examination centres nationwide
