"Attending the GAC course is one of the most rewarding experiences of my academic journey as the benefits and experiences gained during the course have been far-reaching and impactful, preparing me thoroughly for the university life and beyond.
One of the key advantages is the well-rounded preparation for university. The curriculum is packed with group projects and collaborative activities, which taught me how to work effectively with others, and navigate different social dynamics. In addition, the coursework also instilled a strong work ethic in me and the ability to manage my time effectively.
A significant highlight of my time during the GAC course was the focus on my presentation skills. Through various assignments and presentations, I gained confidence in public speaking and learn how to convey my ideas to my classmates, which particularly honed my interaction skills in my social life.
Adapting to the curriculum was quite a challenge initially, but this experience was influential in developing my ability to analyze and manage tasks effectively as well as build my resilience and self-confidence. The diverse range of assignments and projects also provided me to discover my interests and strengths, therefore, allowed me to get to know myself better.
Overall, my time during the curriculum was transformative. The skills I developed and the experiences I gained have prepared me not just for university, but for life. I am deeply grateful for the opportunities and support provided by the GAC course."
