In the 2015 budget, the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak
announced to increase the grades of Malaysian University English Test (MUET)
for university admission starting next year. There are many effects that can be
listed after this implementation. The effects of this situation are the
university needs to filter out those who are eligible, students become afraid
to apply for public universities and more applications are reject.
The
first effect and impression can be seen is the university needs to filter out
those who qualify to enter university with a minimum set of requirements. They
will also face a shortage of students if the minimum level is high. This
situation does not encourage students to apply public universities because the
conditions are high and they prefer to go private institute. Lack of students will also have an impact
on learning in university. This is because, if students are not enrolled, the
class cannot be opened and conducted in accordance with a predetermined. As a result, the university will be deficient students for studying
there.
The second effect the increase MUET band is students will be afraid to apply
local universities. Currently, the general admission requirements for student
is achieve minimum levels Band 1 in the MUET. Starting next year for admission
to the university level increased minimum band to band 2 for social science and
literature, engineering technology and engineering mathematics band 3 and for
law and medical must get band 4. This implementation will complicate the
process of applying to university application. Hence, the application for
admission to university must be pass the prescribed conditions.
The last effect is a lot of applications
for university students will be rejected. This is because many students are not
fluent in English and are not proficient in the international language. After
this, teachers must be increased pressure because they need to teach English to
students until they can pass for university entrance. Private institutions will
certainly smile because many students will choose to study at their place as
the minimum requirements specified above. As a result, students who wish to
apply for admission to the university should strive to achieve a specified
level.
In conclusion, this increase MUET band
should be studied in detail by all parties before being implemented. The role
of government and the authorities is crucial in this exercise as it relates to
the future of the children who will go on working environment. This situation
feared a negative impact on those involved. Finally, many school student
leavers prefer other direction to learn skills such as cooking skills because
it is difficult to get a place in public universities.
