Experience / 个人经历分享

• I still remember my school invited 2 graduates back to give us sec3s a speech on career guidance. One is from JC and the other is from Poly. It was a post exam period and we took that time to learn and plan our career paths. The 2 graduates shared their experience in both institutes and what are the type of people whom are suitable for going to each. This gives us insight of what to expect and what we can do to achieve our aspiration. Following, we were taught on how to draft our EAE and DSA writeup, and told to do various researches on the courses that both institutes have to offer, to make a more informed decision. 我仍然记得我们学校邀请了两位毕业生回来，为我们中三的学生做了一场关于职业规划的演讲。一位来自初级学院（JC），另一位来自理工学院（Poly）。那是考完试后的时期，我们利用那段时间来学习和规划我们的职业道路。这两位毕业生分享了他们在两所学院的经历，以及什么样的人适合去哪所学校。这让我们对未来的期望以及为了实现志向可以做些什么有了深入了解。随后，我们学习了如何起草我们的EAE（提前录用计划）和DSA（直接招生计划）自述文，并被要求对两所学院提供的课程进行各种研究，以便做出更明智的决定。
