Transcripts are an alternative to the AS level examinations and it shows how you have progressed at the Advanced level after acing your Ordinary levels. Transcripts do count when differentiating b/w two students who have both done well in O'levels, but if you ace the entry test, LCAT or SSE, then it won't really matter.

thanks boi..... so getting into lums is purely on Lcat and the O levels basis .. plus fullfilling the A level condition....
dont feel theres any such importance for transcripts as private canidates are also admittied into lums.

But if you do have a transcript and it's BAD, then who are they going to accept? The one without a transcript (private candidates) or the one with a poor result? Private candidates usually appear in AS level examinations.

having an excellent result in O levels and scoring high in lcat as well as having bad transcript (not given As level)....... will be enough for the lums?

 

[OakMoon!]

Yes! How bad is your transcript? :O It also depends on how excellent your result is? These days only 8As cannot be considered very great. You've got to have atleast of them to be stars.

Not a bad O'levels result but just give your best in LCAT if you want to get in. You HAVE to ACE it.

 

[alixx]

in my preception theres a weitage given to everthing... keeping aside the A Level requirment B,B,C....
the priorities are as follow
1, LCAT (90percent weitage)
2, Olevel result
3, Tnascript

 

[OakMoon!]

Leave all these perceptions aside and concentrate on what you can do. Only LCAT is in your hand now, given that you can't improve your transcript and O'levels. So do what you can.

I have 6 A's and 2B'sin O level
and transcript of internal school based exams is pretty bad
it's like B,C,D,D

what do you think about me !!
people admitted already in lums say that transcripts really don't matter its all about entry test and good O level result , which starts from 6 A's onwards
