Namrah Rasool (i17-0018) 
 
Success is not final, failure is not fatal; It is the courage to continue that counts. (~Winston 
Churchill) This quote truly summarizes my life in a sentence. I was a brilliant student who always 
had a great academic performance and whose parents wanted her daughter to become a 
Neurosurgeon but unfortunately I wasn’t able to achieve the required merit to be admissible into a 
medical college. After taking a gap year, my father advised me to take Additional Mathematics 
papers and apply for Engineering universities, and now I am, graduating from FAST-NU as a 
computer scientist. It was all meant to happen and I was destined to become a computer scientist. 
In the first semester, I got a silver medal followed by another silver medal in the 3rd semester, a 
bronze medal in the 5th Semester, and got 4 SGPA in the 6th semester. Allah has been kind and I 
am so grateful to Him for all the successes I am blessed with. Moreover, I got a fully-funded 
scholarship from a government organization from 3rd semester onwards. Coming to Fast Nu proved 
to be a great decision made by Allah which made my parents feel proud and regain the trust that I 
lost in the past year. Alhamdulillah, these four years at Fast-NU happened to be the best years of 
my life.
