MUET - Three Times, Beginning 2012!

Wonderful Readers!
Starting in 2012, MUET Is Three Times A Year!

This announcement is currently shown in the Website of the MPM (Majlis Peperiksaan Malaysia), the Examination council that administers the MUET.

"MulaiMUET tahun 2012, ujian MUET akan dijalankan sebanyak tiga kali setahun dan dijangka akan berlangsung pada bulan Mac, Julai, dan November." 

That means candidates have more choice in terms of the timing of their test.  Three choices - in March, July and November.  This could be a nightmare for some teachers as they would be hard-pressed for time to teach the students who want to take the MUET as early as March.  Those who aspire to take the MUET that early (time of the year) then they have to make their own preparation to cover the syllabus.  Students have the freedom to choose at what time of the year that they want to take the tests.

When the going gets tough, the tough just gets going!  All the best to you!

  2. Hi Amy,

    Thanks for your response.

    Your MUET result is valid for five (5) years from the date of release of your results. Therefore, you can still use your MUET results if you want to apply for university entry next year (2012).

    All the best to your efforts.

    1. Certain companies have found that MUET is a good standard for English. I heard from a reliable source that MAS (Malaysian Airlines System) will see a job applicants' MUET results when they apply for a position in MAS. Sorry, we just cannot tell what band does MAS require to take somebody under their "wings".

    1. Dear Alley,

      Sorry for this late (so late) reply. Well, better late than never!

      The MUET result is useful for entry into universities. As for applying for jobs, personally I have not heard any employers or interviewers asking for the MUET results to be evaluated by would-be employees.

      Government servants need to take the MUET when the need arises such as for promotions to a higher post (naik pangkat) or other purposes as required by the Public Service Department.

      Congratulations for being accepted into UNITEN. If the UNITEN requires you to take the MUET again then you should follow the usual procedures of applying and registering for the MUET tests. If they don't require you to get better bands for your MUET, you don't need to re-take the MUET. If you feel like taking the MUET just to improve your scores, go ahead! Just pay RM100.00!

      I hope this helps.

      You can use your better results (highest band) for your purpose. It is valid for two years.

  8. "The validity period of the MUET Result is as follow: MUET Results obtained before the year 2009 are valid until 18 July 2013."

    So it means if your MUET results obtained bfr 2009, you have to finish your degree before 18th of July 2012?
