Write a personal reflection on your academic goals and journey. You may write
in any style or format. You may use diagrams, drawings and colours.
Foundation, Diplomas, STPM, SAM, CPU, Cambridge A-levels... All of these came
across my mind even before the SPM examinations started. Well, picking the right choice of
pre-university programmes isnt easy at all. But at last, I chose to take up the Cambridge Alevels (CAL) programme.
Why am I in this programme? Of course, one of the main reasons is that CAL suits
my aspiration to study medicine in University of Cambridge after my pre-u studies. Not only
that, CAL is highly recognised by most of the universities throughout the world. Although
originated from the United Kingdom, students that obtain excellent grades are able to enter
prestigious universities in United States, Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia and so forth.
I have chosen Chemistry as one of my 4 subjects as I would like to pursue my studies
in the medicinal field. Medicine, dentistry or biomedical sciences, these fields requires
chemistry because chemistry plays a crucial part in our body. For instance, cellular
respiration is the natural process that is always occurring in our body throughout our whole
life. By using the knowledge in chemistry, I am certain that I will be able to get in depth with
the reaction that is occurring during this process. Thus, it is vital that I take up chemistry as a
subject in my CAL programme so that I will get a better understanding with my studies later.
Chemistry has always been my well-liked subject ever since Form 4s. WHY? I
havent figure out any answers to that question yet. Maybe I love to mix chemicals and see
the result of it. Haha. Or maybe is my curiosity towards the natural phenomena. No matter
what, chemistry has made a great impact to my life and thinking. I remembered when I first
stepped into the science laboratory during Form 1s, I would just stare at the results of the
experiments of the seniors did and felt marvellous about it. It was just COOL looking at the
change in colours of the chemicals. I had no idea how they did it and why the chemicals
reacted. I was curious and I had many question marks in my head.
Fortunately, I got half of these questions answered when I stepped into my Form 4s
and 5s. It was fun to watch looking at the results of my experiment. Regardless of planning
experiments or doing calculations, I love every part of chemistry. I believe that in my CAL
programme, chemistry will be much harder than it was during my secondary school but I
hope that it will still be as fun as it was before in my secondary school.
