I was struggling when I had to choose between different programs during the summer holiday at different universities. I was considering whether I should choose the Summer Institute Program at COHK or the summer program at PolyU. I'm a form five student, and I'm going to experience university life very soon. Therefore, I asked my sister and my friends, and they both suggested I go to COHK, as they think that COHK will provide more programs and resources related to commerce, giving me a greater experience. Therefore, I chose to spend my summer holiday at COHK to participate in the activities it offered. During the program, I found that I really enjoyed it. I met different friends from various countries, including England and mainland China, as well as locals in Hong Kong. After the two-week event, I felt really grateful for having this experience.
