Now that the STPM and SPM results are out, there will be oncoming advertisements on colleges, Universities offering their assistance to the students. There will be education fairs held in big cities to give out information to those who are pursuing their ambitions and interest. These fairs are pretty helpful for students who have yet to make up their minds on what subjects to take, their fees, the duration of the courses and accommodation.
I remember during my girl's time when she had her results, she was still "blur" about what the course she wanted to pursue. Both of us went to education fairs, traveled outstation to find out more about the college, applied for scholarships and attending interviews. It is really a time of decision making.
As parents, we know this is a crucial moment unless one has already made a decision even before the results are out. For those with financial constraints, it is another problem. We have to seek out loans and scholarships which are so competitive that one should not expect high hopes. With the strict competition going on, it is like applying for the sake of applying and after that, do not dwell on it. Then disappointment will not be so great.
