What it Takes to Reach Your Dreams

Want to build a path towards a top university entry? The time to start is now! “What it Takes to Reach Your Dreams” aims to give you an idea of what students should be doing to secure their spot in institutions like Oxford, Cambridge, Ivy Leagues and other Top Universities.

This talk is suitable for ages 14 and above to understand how to start aiming high and achieving a place at the best universities in the world. All are welcomed to participate. We will also be conducting a question and answer session.

All our proceeds for this event will go to Colour Away Covid, an initiative founded by a team of secondary school and college students living in Malaysia and Hong Kong. They are currently running a campaign called Dear Malaysia, which aims to raise RM150,000 to provide support for underprivileged students in Malaysia. This includes sponsoring internet services for these students and supplement funds for educational and additional support for them and their families.

Why join our talk?

We have a proven track record with more than 5 years of experience in guiding students through the top university admissions process and having our students get placed in Harvard, Cambridge and London School of Economics in 2021. Our tutors are mostly from Oxbridge & Ivy Leagues themselves, so they are familiar with the challenges and obstacles that most students face.

Our philosophy goes beyond just academics – we understand that character and skills development are just as vital to ensure that these individuals get to thrive even in the most challenging environment.
