At last week’s G.R.O. Leadership Club Meeting, I gave a presentation to the students on different tertiary institutions. Many of the students were surprised to find out some of the stringent requirement for entering university. It made them realize the hard work it would take to be accepted into one! The students all have dreams of becoming professionally successful – e.g., becoming an engineer, doctor, lawyer, accountant, etc. But they did not necessarily know the high scores they needed to enter the institutions that would allow them to fulfill their dreams. They were very attentive during the meeting and I think that they will now put greater effort into their school work after the presentation and the stern talk I gave them about improving their grades. I think it will help them to be more future-focused than before and I really hope that this is demonstrated in their grades this term!
