Top 20 Schools in Malaysia – January 2010
February 4, 2010
The top schools in Malaysia has been announced. For those who missed out on the news report, Berry Berry Easy would inform all Berry Readers on the schools that made it to the top. Based on the NST report (http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/articles/20100125173928/Article/index_html) on the 25th of January 2010, there were 14 secondary schools and 6 primary schools which made the list.
So parents who have kids who might enter primary schools might want to take note of the primary school list. Students who will be entering secondary school or Form 4 might want to take note on the secondary school list. It is expected that the number of high performance schools (SBT) will be increased to 30 in 2011 and 50 in 2012. (Keep watching Berry Berry Easy for updated list when they appear, bookmark us in the meantime)

Wow, no schools like Jit Sin, Keat Hwa, PFS, Chung Ling High School, Malacca High School, Sam Tet, Catholic High School, St Pauls, MBS etc that regularly churn out top scorers for both STPM and SPM. That list is just rubbish.

Those are fully government school. Fully subsidise by the government.

@ Kulitfication @ You did not read carefully -> Actually without even considering private schools, if SPM and STPM results alone were used as the sole criterion for selection of the top schools, it won’t also match the outcome of the SPM and STPM 2009 results too.
The best is to take all list with a pinch of salt. Use any list as a guide but not as the absolute truth. Thanks for the thought-provoking comments.
