Do you think we should give monetary incentives to the KP2 students to motivate them to get better grades?


 


 
What is KP2..? KP2 is a short form of 'Kedudukan Percubaan' when students obtained a gpa of below 2.00 and KP2 means that students get a gpa of below 2.00 for 2 successive semesters. The question now is whether we should give incentives to the KP2 students or not?




The answer is a big NO. This is because merit should be the main criteria in an institution. Students must be trained to work harder to get something out of their results. This will only benefit the students itself as it will train the students the meaning of hardship and perseverance. As a result of this, students will be able to cope with the real world when their studies are over. 

Besides that, scholarship in Malaysia and MICET mainly is limited and it must be given to the deserving only. To be frank we've never came across an educational institution giving incentives to those who obtained bad results. There are alternatives other than giving incentives such as give extra motivation for this sets of students and most of all give extra attention to the students. Lecturers are meant to help students but if students themselves don't even care to help themselves, why should we give incentives to the students? This will only lead to negligent among the students.

Furthermore, KP2 students should not look at their results and moan about it thus they should take that as a motivation to work harder. Students should aware that without 'sweat' they would never get a good results. Don't make excuses such as you are a sportsmen or whatever. Divide time accordingly to your needs. Allah gives us brain to think and act. Not think and do nothing. Spent less time on imagining things and start your own act to study! There are many students who are good in sports and at the same time in their studies too. Learn from them and don't hope for miracles to happen. You build your own future!

As a conclusion, students should be aware that KP2 status is not something to demoralize them. Think positive. The real world is much more tougher in University. If students can't hold it any longer in the institution, the future of Malaysia looks bleak because we need youth to lead our country .Go on and achieve your dreams all by yourself and don't think of getting an extra incentives just because you are a KP2 students :D


ps : Failing is not the the end of the world. Failing means that it's a start of something new and hopefully big! the secret? Think POSITIVE :)
