Undeniably, the HKDSE is believed to be one of the biggest challenges for Hong Kong
students regardless of their willingness and capability to confront difficulties. Facing such
a plight, one may easily lose their motivation. Indeed, I used to be one of them. However,
with the inspiration, guidance and encouragement from the teachers at IMSC, I could
stand up again and persevere till the end. Therefore, I would like to extend my heartfelt
thanks to all the teachers here. They spent most of their time not only on teaching us,
but also fostering our personal development. In the last six years, I have learnt about the
school spirit, “All for One, One for All”, and in the years to come, I will act it out.

Teachers’ efforts alone cannot make one succeed academically. What is equally important
is our attitude. “Attitude determines altitude” is my conviction that keeps reminding me
of an open secret – being optimistic is the crucial key to success. Never should one
underestimate his or her own ability. Coupled with optimism, learning from mistakes is also vital. Trying to understand the
reasons for being wrong in every single assignment will make one improve quickly. Hope that all fellow schoolmates can fulfill
their own dreams and pass the school spirit on.

To many Hong Kong students, facing the HKDSE is probably the biggest challenge they have ever met in their lives.
Luckily, in my secondary school life, I met many caring teachers and supportive schoolmates. With their encouragement,
I persevered in my studies for the DSE and put my full effort in it. Therefore, I would like to express my thanks to the
teachers who have nurtured me and my schoolmates who have helped me out in the past six years.

I believe the key to success in the DSE is the support that our fellows gives us. Our school motto, ‘All for One,
One for All’ reminds us to cheer up one another when we are disappointed and that we are not alone. When we
encounter difficulties, our teachers and friends will always support us and make us strong again and so we need
not give up on our dreams.

I hope that all of you can persevere in your studies for the DSE and achieve your goals and dreams!

I would like to dedicate my gratitude to all the teachers at IMSC for nurturing me
to be both academically competent and all-rounded as a person.

Being academically successful should not be the sole goal for a student. To
gain a wider perspective into the world, we should always take the initiatives to
explore new things. Having good time management is an important prerequisite
for achieving success. It is not difficult to understand how stressful it is to
achieve high scores in the HKDSE, but studying for a whole day without rest
will be less efficient than studying with short breaks. So, leave some time for
yourself to refresh! I hope the above tips can help my fellow schoolmates to lead
a fruitful university life too!
