I received something from the examination Board in the mail today. Since I am still a student, with a very tardy track record (for this one particular subject), they have suggested me to go for a pre-revision course.
When I first saw the pamphlet, I was thinking... ah great.. maybe I should go for this course. Maybe they'll keep me updated with the new exam format, syllabus changes and past year exam's input (since I am not attending any classes for this semester). Plus, they conveniently highlighted the fact that they are bringing in 2 highly recommended specialists on the subject matter all the way from the UK. It is an opportunity not to be missed.
FYI, this Board usually organises these events for free - in order to assist its students. However, I realised that lately they have been trying to charge us for for every single thing! Including this particular course..
Imagine my shock when I saw that they are charging us students RM500 for the course.. a 2-day PRE-REVISION course (it's not even a full revison course!) for a freaking RM500....! It is around the same price that I am paying to sit for the examination paper this coming November! Mahal giler ok..! Even a regular class at the local college will only cost me around RM300 for the whole semester.
Isk... Now I have to rely solely on my notes from the previous sittings. Any new and additional information from the Board will only cost me more migrain attacks and burn a deeper hole through my pocket.
