In this document they described the legal procedure adopted in 2011 A/L where similar situation occurred at that time with old and new syllabus. .

Also it says that, based on the advice of the experts’ group, UGC had informed the candidates that the composite average method is used when selecting students for courses of study from both group of students for the Academic Year 2019/2020.
