Choosing subjects

The College prides itself in offering the widest possible choice of subjects. The following guidelines should help students choose their subjects wisely:

  • Students are advised to identify their areas of strength and interest and to choose the University course/s that match these strengths and interests. Some courses may require specific subjects as entry requirements, but there are University courses which do not have special course requirements.
  • For the Matriculation Certificate, students are required to study two subjects at Advanced level, three subjects at Intermediate level and Systems of Knowledge, which is a compulsory subject.
  • The choice of subjects should include one subject from each of Groups 1, 2 and 3. The other two subjects may be chosen from any of the four groups below.
  • It is the students’ responsibility to ensure that the group of subjects chosen is in line with MATSEC regulations and course requirements. The same applies if a change of subjects is requested. 
  • Students may request to be exempted from studying the six subjects at the College, if they are already in possession of a pass in the subject/s.
  • The Junior College reserves the right not to offer a subject if the number of applicants does not justify it or if logistics and timetable arrangements do not permit it.
  • Students are strongly advised to consult the relevant  to know more about a particular subject.
