Stebbins, R. 1963 Ocean Trip Bangkok Jan. 28 are being awarded each year (programs on some A B's have been extended a year - hence 5 yr. duration). Awards are based on the performance on the "Combined University Entrance Examination". Students list their choice of colleges (lines for specialty) in order of preference. Colleges include - agriculture, science, political science, medicine, pharmacy, education, dentistry. Previously each university gave its own examination. The College of Education attracts the weaker students. School children come to Bangkok for the examination. A district Year, however, may administer the high school metricalaten exam., although it is designed by the university. 10,000 may apply for the "Combined Exam.", but 7,000 may end up taking it. Last year, I believe, 4000 were accepted by the various colleges. I asked about science requirements for high school students. Pradiat said all students must have general science which includes chem., physics, and biology. Science students of course take additional work. There are separate courses in physics, chemistry, and biology.
