my friend applied for SIA while he is doing his degree in MMU. After they found out that he's still studying and didn't graduate yet they told him to get his degree first and apply again next year.
Just want to share with you that SIA prefer graduate and so do MAS even though the min req. is SPM. Last year's batch there's 10 degree holder and only 2 with SPM, straight A's. My friend is one of them and their average marks for each test is 93%....
If you want to go straight after SPM make sure you got excellent grades unless you got 'connection' because there's time that I heard there's one cadets failed and become a steward in MAS because he got in using 'cable' and don't have the qualifications and qualities to undergo cadet pilot scheme.
I love to talk on anything relating cadet pilot. If anyone of you have any info feel free to contact me at hafizuka at yahoo.com
