Show commitment to and perseverance in CAS experiences
Demonstrate the skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively
In February, I helped my dad in a jewelery and diamond fair. This was my seconded time participating in booth like this and its a fun experience. It helped me understand my dads business a lot because of the products he sold to the customers. I used to my strengths like talking people and being persuasive to attract customers. But selling diamonds is a difficult task because you talk to hundreds of people per day and only few purchase them. It taught me the patience needed and showed me the difficult task my dad does to run the business. I faced few challenges, I didn't everything about the products so couldn't answer all the customers questions but working collaboratively with my father helped me overcome does challenges and learning new information about the diamonds. This experince was a fun one and for sure will join my dad next time he sets up a booth.

World Economics Cup was an economics competition world wide. This was the qualifier stage of the competition, this opportunity was provided by our Economics teacher. She encouraged us to participate, and for me I love challenging experiences and like to put my self outside my comfort zone. So this opportunity was a no brainer, but there were challenges I faced like this competition included contents that I didn't learn. But I used my own strengths to try my best to answer those question. I learned a lot things while facing those challenges and got a overall score of 71.5/100 which is distinction. I showed commitment to my love of economics and will be participating in further competitions like this to develop my skills and knowledge. It was a team competition even though we didnt make it to the next round we will tried our best. Next time we will do even better because we gained experience from this competition.
