4 Sections, 1,000 THB per Section. Test 10 will take place in September 2012. I estimate 800 4-Sections-test takers since the first test in 2007. Until now, not more than 10 test takers passed all 4 sections and were granted the TCT Teacher License.

Currently, the Culture Course is provided by one organisation only. 5,000 THB.

I wonder which govt offical own the comapny that has the monopoly on the culture course - oh, such a cynic.

Thanks.

You're welcome.
