GEORGE TOWN: With two months to go, parents and students are still in the dark over the lack of clear information pertaining to the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination scheduled to be held in January.

Questions such as when the results will be out, how to apply for matriculation programmes, whether the exams this year will be tough, what if the pandemic continues, and whether trial examination results will be used instead, are among the concerns.
