Meet Abdul Ahad, who is currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Finance at Curtin Dubai. He talks about his experience with receiving the prestigious High Achiever’s Academic Scholarship Award from Curtin University Dubai which was based on his outstanding IGCSEs and A-Level results. ⁣


I secured all 8 A*s and scored the highest mark worldwide for Commerce and the highest mark in the Middle East for Accounting in my IGCSE’s. ⁣I also secured all 3 A*s in A levels and attained the highest mark in the World for Accounting as well as the highest mark in the UAE for Economics.⁣ The scholarship helped me develop a strong foundation for my higher studies and has opened up significant options in my career both financially and academically.
