Cambridge, Harvard and Beyond

Had a talk at lecture hall yesterday, it was from an ex-taylor student. It was during class time and the whole class decided to go for the talk instead. Luckily teacher approved and she asked permission from the programme director i guess. It was scheduled at 12-1. The title was Cambridge, Harvard and Beyond. Well this girl name Yvonne Tew was the one gave the talk.

Basically she's here to share with us her experience studying law at cambridge and harvard. It was quite an interesting talk. It all started when she was still studying in Taylor for her A lvls to how she got accepted to cambridge and later on her master at harvard. It's all under scholarship. Well, im not gonna explain what she said la..just giving a brief idea. Then after her master she returned to malaysia and took a gap year teaching at university malaya. According to her, she wanted to take a break from the academic life for a bit. Anyway, she's leaving for Cambridge again this september to continue her phd under the Gates Scholarship. In conclusion, the whole 1 hour wasn't wasted at all, it was a very inspiring and meaningful speech.
