Selection trial for entry into USM on 18 April 09

The 26,635 students who applied to enter apex-status Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) must not miss the Malaysian University Selection Inventory (Munsyl) special assessment test tomorrow.
USM deputy vice-chancellor (Academic and International Affairs) Prof Ahmad Shukri Mustapa Kamal said the test would enable them to select applicants who were suitable for the course they had opted for.
“Anyone who misses the test will miss a chance to study in USM. It’s just a one-hour test and it is to help the university and applicants make the right choice.”
He said USM had selected 117 locations nationwide for the applicants to attend the assessment tomorrow.
“Only 3,500 applicants will be picked to enrol in the university. The applicants will know their status at the end of this month.”
Prof Ahmad Shukri said unsuccessful applicants would have their applications submitted to the University Admission Unit (UPU) for other public universities.
He said those sitting for the Munsyl must print the attending slip from www.usm.my, bring their identification card, pencils and erasers to sit for the assessment.
“The location for them to sit the assessment can be found online,” he said, adding that the university had sent out SMSes to the candidates
