PETALING JAYA: After completing secondary school with a Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) or O-level certificate, prospective law students would usually enrol in pre-university courses.

At this stage, students could study for a diploma in law, foundation in law or take other pre-university programmes through the Sijil Tinggi Pelajaran Malaysia exams, A-level or matriculations, among others.

For those who wish to go abroad, only certain universities in the United Kingdom, Singapore, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand are recognised by the Malaysian Bar and LPQB.With a four-year degree programme that includes a professional year in the syllabus, the students would not need to sit for the Certificate in Legal Practice examinations by LPQB, and could go straight into pupillage.

The exam is required for one to be a “qualified person” as provided in Section Five of the Legal Profession Act 1976 .
