Coverage
- This is a targeted check of 25 entries across 12 countries, not an exhaustive national inventory; no centre contact or registration login occurred.
- Future dates are announced plans, not proof of available seats or completed exams; historical entries are labelled past announced.
- Unstated levels, formats, deadlines, cities, time zones and publication dates stay null; global deadlines are not imputed locally.
- Nottingham Malaysia content came from its official-domain indexed body; final live fetch failed, so recheck before publishing.
- The Hanoi directory labels 17 October Finished before the 14 October check; this was not treated as completion evidence.
- UNAM's June PDF metadata says March; the body repeatedly specifies 27 June. The discrepancy is retained.
- Syllabus PDF and sample ZIP contents were not reviewed; the demo was not operated. Only verified official entry links are provided.
- No invented score methods, pass rates or guarantees are supplied; editorial translations do not replace current official notices.
