NO CAPTION, MUST USE CREDIT: RONNIE CHIN/The Star

ALL we have heard about in the media are the success stories and happy news of students who performed extremely well in SPM 2021. Kudos to these students who worked hard to achieve those grades.

However, let’s remember that these students represent a mere 2.5% of the overall number of candidates. For many, SPM 2021 results day was also the day when they had to bury their dreams and ambitions. It was also a day of utter dejection when efforts poured into getting results didn’t match grades received.
