The 2023 Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination will be held from Dec 5 this year until March 7 next year, the education ministry has announced. This includes dates for practical science tests, oral exams (spoken and listening tests) for Bahasa Melayu and English as well as written tests.
In a Facebook post, the ministry said it had taken into account the remaining number of schooling days in the year and the various upcoming public holidays in deciding on the SPM dates. The whole schedule of SPM 2023 was recently published on the official website of Ministry of Education MOE’s Education Board on Friday 18 August, 2023.
About 400,000 students will sit for the upcoming SPM Written Exam beginning from January 30 to March 7 next year. The SPM Exam Schedule or Jadual Waktu Peperiksaan (JWP) SPM 2023 is below as released by the Majlis Peperiksaan Malaysia.

The 2022 SPM exam was held from Jan 30 till March 15 this year. The schedule for the exam then was delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic and ensuing lockdowns, forcing school terms to be postponed. Education minister Fadhlina Sidek had said the new academic year will only revert to January from 2026 onwards due to the disruptions caused by the pandemic.
The SPM results will normally be released in mid-June and students may begin applying for universities for their intakes from July onwards. Students who want to have an early start may use their SPM Trial Results to apply for the April/May intakes for Pre-University Programmes or Diploma Programmes.
Students will need at least 5 credits to join a Pre-University course or 3 credits for Diploma. However, if you have failed your BM or Sejarah, you should sign up to resit the SPM Ulangan held in September.
