I scored 8As and 2Bs in my O-Levels here, but more than that, I discovered confidence, leadership, and resilience. From student council to debates and events, Al-Ala shaped the hesitant boy I was into someone ready to face the world.
Our teachers used to say, “You’re in a well now, but the ocean is out there.” I understand that now—because after Al-Ala, I completed my A-Levels at PakTurk, earned a CS degree from FAST-NUCES, and now work as an Associate Software Engineer at dubizzle Labs.
Al-Ala prepared me not just to survive the ocean, but to swim in it. And for that, I’ll always be grateful.
