2025 A/L Exam Background

The GCE Advanced Level Examination 2025 was originally scheduled to be held from 10 November to 5 December 2025. However, due to Cyclone Ditwah, the examination was disrupted and subsequently rescheduled. The amended examination was conducted in two stages, with the second stage held from 12 January 2026 to 20 January 2026. Because the exam was held in two stages, results processing took additional time compared to previous years.
