Hi there …
I would love to ask this,
If I choose matric. Would it help me to further study abroad???
Yes @Bluei, matriculation is recognized internationally and it is equivalent to other pre-university programmes like STPM, A Levels, IB, SAM, Diploma etc
In other words, you can use Matriculation result to apply to get admission into undergraduate (degree) courses at universities overseas.

According to this post Complete Guide to Malaysia Matriculation Programme (Program Matrikulasi),
Little Myth I’d Like To Debunk
YES, it is possible to gain admission to premier foreign universities with your matriculation qualification. Here’s an official list (non-exhaustive) by Ministry of Education, Malaysia.
A friend of mine even got an offer from Imperial College London (amongst several others), and he’s currently waiting on scholarship replies before he decides on whether or not to go there.
The webpage of the university list has already been removed, so you will get an error if you click the link. But here is the copy of the list in case you are interested:

HI. I wanna ask that is it possible to get the degree what I want after I finish Matriculation? Because some people tell me that the students from Matriculation have more opportunities than STPM students to get the subject what they want in IPTA. Thanks!

@Angel_Leong. Hi. Yeah it’s easier to get what u want but u have to meet the requirements and pass the interview.
Do I have to pay for hostel or beverages fee?

@Sally no u don’t have to pay for the hostel. But food will not be provided. U can buy food and drinks at the café.
Is the monthly allowance of RM250 enough to cover the food? How much do you spend per meal? Would you mind to give some examples of the food and price?
What are the other expenses? Do you need to pay by yourself to buy books, transport to the town? What about laundry, how much do you pay to use the washing machine?
Thanks for spending your time answering our questions!

Hi @Ong. I don’t use the monthly allowance as my parents don’t allow me to use it, my parents would give me money to spend on food and etc. The spending of money depends on yourself. I would eat bread most of the time as it’s cheaper and enough for me. The price at the cafes are quite pricey… It depends on the cafe and the quantity of food u order. Yes I buy books myself but it doesn’t cost much. The washing machine is rm2 per wash. The transportation outside of the college is all on our own. Hope this helped. 
Ate bread most of the time? Seriously… I cannot imagine that! That sounds really sad and pitiful… No wonder there was a sharing on Who Ever Said That Matrix Was Easy?
But I guess maybe you can share what do you mean pricey… like how much is the nasi campur of 2 dishes or mee goreng so that we can have a better idea? Of course the price is just a reference as it is slightly different from college to college and every year the price is increasing.

@Kai. I ate bread cause sometimes I am just caught up with too much of homework and I have no time to eat a full meal. The price for rice with 2 dish is around rm4-5. Depending on the food choose, if just vegetables is just around rm2.50. Mee goreng is around rm5. The prices varies with different cafes. There the cheap one and expensive ones.
