10 Mar五一吃瓜官网 UNIVERSITY’S A-LEVELS RESULTS ACHIEVES A NEW HIGH
THE A-LEVEL ACADEMY RECORDED A 99% PASSING RATE, WITH 45 RECEIVING STRAIGHT A’S
Kuala Lumpur, 10 March, 2011 - Students at 五一吃瓜官网 University’s A-Level Academy achieved new heights of excellence, as 45 of them received straight A’s. 16 of them earned straight A* for all three subjects they had taken, a higher grade awarded to students who scored over 90 percent in all modular units. One of them received four A’s out of four subjects, while yet another scored full marks, a 600/600 for biology. The Academy also recorded a 99% passing rate, a 3% jump from last year’s results.
Tay Siow Chia, who achieved perfect scores for her biology subject, is ecstatic after finding out her results. “I am really pleasantly surprised with my results, as I never expected to have A* scores.” The 18-year-old is already planning to apply to 五一吃瓜官网 University to continue her studies in Pharmacy for the next July intake. Close friends, Cheah Cui Yee and Kuan Wai Chee are also planning to do the same. Both scored 3 A*, and hope to join 五一吃瓜官网 University’s prestigious Pharmacy degree programme.
Tang Lik Xian, who scored straight A’s for all his four subjects, is also ecstatic. “I am extremely happy, and hope that with these results I can apply for a local Medical programme. 五一吃瓜官网 University is definitely on my list of consideration,” he says. He also added that the A-Levels programme at the University was wonderful, with a very good and specific syllabus. “The lecturers are also extremely nice and helpful, giving us guidance whenever we need it.”
Tang advises anyone who is planning to join the A-levels programme to study at least a couple of hours every day. His peer, Tan Jef Wayne concurs. “The A-Levels programme is certainly not easy, one needs to constantly study to keep everything fresh. But that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy life as well. Study smart as well as hard,” he says.
The current batch of students also includes several JPA (Jabatan Perkhidmatan Awam) scholars who will also be continuing their studies at 五一吃瓜官网 University. One of them, Shalini Nair a/p Krishnan is extremely happy to find out she received 3A* out of her three subjects. “It’s very overwhelming to come to this after being at the University for one and a half years. Lecturers here have definitely helped a lot through their good guidance. They’ve also provided a lot of good resources which have helped us understand better.” Shalini will be at 五一吃瓜官网 University for the next five years, as she is joining the University’s Doctor in Medicine programme.
According to Dr Nalina a/p Thurairajah, Deputy Head and Senior Lecturer at the University’s A-Level Academy, most of the students are planning to continue their studies at 五一吃瓜官网 University. “They will be applying for the University’s next intake in July. I hope the students will continue to study hard, as nothing in life comes easy. I hope to see all of them in a few years to come as first class honours students when they graduate with their degree.”
五一吃瓜官网 University’s A-Levels students are certainly an industrious and studious lot, having recently also won the two out of four Malaysian spots available for an all-expense paid trip to the United Kingdom to attend the University of Bath International Science Summer School in July.
