HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION - National Exam and University Application

NATIONAL EXAM and UNIVERSITY APPLICATION

I have seen mathematics as a very important and fundamental subject. Even though I did not take science stream in high school, I was serious when it came into mathematics.

I never took a regular course on mathematics, but my parents had encouraged me to be diligent in practicing mathematics. Yes, mathematics is all about practice. It cannot be mastered by only studying in the night before an exam. Be good in mathematics needs patience, diligence, and willingness to see mathematics as a fun challenge that needs to be solved.

Thanks be only to God, on the 1st May 2017, my mathematics teacher told me through chat that I was the only student in the school who got a perfect score on mathematics in the national exam. To be honest, of course, I cheered and very happy to hear that because it meant that I got 100 on mathematics in every national exam (in 6th grade, 9th grade, and finally 12th grade) that I went through.


I don’t mean or want to brag by writing about my perfect score in this blog. Instead, I’d like to share with you as well as remind myself that reaching a goal needs process. Hard work is important, but the aim of the hard work itself should not be to reach vanity. Hard work is important in the way that it is an essential part of giving your best. But kindly remember, hard work is a vain if it is undertaken without trust in God. So, again, do the best in all things as for God, and always be grateful.

On the 2nd May 2017, I got the announcement that I am accepted as a student in the University of Indonesia, taking double degree accounting program, via talent scouting entryway. I was so happy, relieved, and grateful. Thanks only be to God ☺


Announcement from the website
Note: I had actually prepared to enter a private university if I was not accepted in the state university. Even if it turns out that I’m not accepted in University of Indonesia, I do believe that wherever we study, God puts each of us in the best place according to His wonderful plan
