Reflection

Three of the alumni were excellent as they tried their best to deliver their useful advice to their juniors in the hope of preparing them to face the real world. Three of them were very active students, who participated in a lot of competitions during their university lives, which reflected how all the activities help them to grow and gain more knowledge. One of the alumni also talked about his passion and his perspectives about coding - contribute to world through coding, which was truly inspiring. Another alumni shared his mind about mastering different skill sets and he had changed people’s mindset on getting perfect results. The fact is that a perfect CGPA is not the only key to success. Instead, extra skills we possess matter too! For example, good leadership skills can save us from a lot of troubles when it comes to working on a project.
