Ramsha Waseem (i16-0868) 
 
I never studied to aim medal as a reward. The hard work, passion, and consistency have always 
helped me make my ways to becoming a high achiever throughout.  
The journey of hard work began when I made the choice to pursue O-A levels. It is quite tough to 
prove myself in an atmosphere where no one really thought that being in a different field i.e. O-A 
levels is of value. The determination to learn helped me grow in a way that I got confidence within 
me that I can do it. Before coming to FAST University, I got acceptance from international 
universities based on my excellent academics but the circumstances did not allow and I ended up in 
FAST. Initially it was really hard to see me not pursuing the studies abroad but a proverb that 
helped me prove myself once again is the reason I am a high achiever in FAST university. The 
proverb says “ Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still.”  
Today, I proudly say that FAST University has not only helped me learn the academics but have 
made me a refined individual. Dealing with a lot of ambitious fellows, made me dig deeper into my 
own self. Studying in FAST for four years, have made me realise that the real growth is the self-
satisfaction and happiness within oneself. FAST has allowed me learned that in life we come across 
variety of people, but what is important is that don’t let others chart your path. One should be 
mindful enough to choose to envision plans and take decisions. Not everything ends up as planned 
so acceptance and growing through alternative means is always a way towards achieving success.
