I’ve always been the kind of person who sets unreasonably high expectations for myself. People often say not to—that aiming too high only leads to disappointment. But I’ve always wondered: how can anyone grow if they don’t push themselves beyond their limits?
For as long as I can remember, my goal was to achieve straight A’s in SPM. To be completely honest, I also wanted to surpass my brother, who scored an impressive 7A+ and 2A. It wasn’t about jealousy—it was healthy competition. I wanted to prove to myself, and maybe to others too, that I was capable of achieving something extraordinary.
The journey wasn’t easy. In fact, it was incredibly tough. I still remember the month leading up to SPM, when I studied for over 12 hours a day. And even then, it never felt like it was enough. Looking back now, I wish I could go back and tell myself that I am doing more than enough.
Those two months felt like the longest stretch of my life—but I made it through. And no matter how difficult it got, I’m proud of myself for not giving up. I’ll never forget the moment I saw my results. The shock, the joy—I literally jumped out of my chair. It was in that moment I realized: all the sleepless nights, the self-doubt, the pressure—it was all worth it.
I’m still in disbelief that I went from an E in Add Maths during trials to an A in SPM—it truly feels like a dream. I’m incredibly grateful that I made the decision to join Sir Jaden’s class. His patience, dedication, and clear way of teaching made all the difference. I owe this achievement to him, and I honestly couldn’t have done it without his support.
