BETONG: It is not easy to prepare for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic.

For the candidates to pay full attention to the learning process online and obtain excellent SPM results, the effort is indeed commendable.

This is because students not only need to be 100 percent committed but need to persevere to exert their mental strength.

Haiqal admitted that Additional Mathematics was among the most difficult subjects.

He shared his bitter and sweet experiences throughout the preparation for the exam.

His advice to other students, especially those facing SPM, is not to waste time but to take advantage of the available time.

“Continue to persevere in striving and always pray to God for success,” he said.

Meanwhile, his father, Mohd Hanafi is proud of his son’s success.

“Parents are definitely proud and happy when their children succeed,” said Hanafi.

There is no denying that the SPM examination this time will be even more challenging because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Students will be fully tested on their mental strength and enthusiasm.

Still, it is not an obstacle if the students are not easily discouraged and resilient in the face of any challenge.
