Friends....I did o/l in 2012 and got A8 & 1B. I hope to do a university foundation course that leads to an UGC approved accredited degree.

So is it good to skip A/L and start a degree right after o/l?

Share your ideas with me :)

    yeah machan do not waste your time by doing A/L.syou can save one heck of time by skipping A/Ls.you can graduate by 20/21 where as others who did A/ls can get the same qualification by 25 years of age.So think twice and decide. :)

    Do a foundation course to lead a degree..it's the best choice....but it doesn't say don't do the a/l....1st one is the best...you decide.

    machan ,
    I did AL and I passed it. But,
    DONT DO IT !! if your parents willing to pay for your higher studies don't waste them on "tuition kada" for AL. Doing AL is just an exam to get a government uni entrance. Other than that I dont see much education in it.
    Do what ever you like. You may need to do a foundation but its fine. Maximum it will take an year for that, then you can start your diploma and digree soon after. You may save alot of time by skipping AL but most importantly its not the point. The best age and best time for study is 16-20. At that age most people are on fire to learn new things. Enthusiasm it self will take you to the success. Good luck! :D
    Learn from my mistake :P
