High Achiever: Adelina Chan Wai Kuen



Course: Specialist Diploma in Applied Psychology

"Extra efforts and perseverance will be required. For example, I find difficulties to remember all the formulas required for a particular statistics module. I will need to put in double time period to master it as compared to my classmates and to keep pushing myself forward. Together with assistance and support from Raffles College's lecturers, I am proud that I have passed the module with distinction! Based on my personal experience, despite of age barrier, I believe one can excel with determination and perseverance on any form of endeavour."
- Adelina Chan

Having previous diploma qualification in counselling, Adelina never stops at one as she finds that just acquiring counselling knowledge is insufficient and she persists to pursue higher understanding in the field of psychology, especially one that emphasizes more on technical knowledge that could be applied in her daily problems arising from her work and personal life. As such, she has chosen and enrolled for Specialist Diploma in Applied Psychology programme and following that, to proceed on to the Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Applied Psychology final year programme offered by Raffles EducationCorp College.

"The Applied Psychology programme at Raffles College provides me the understanding and to learn to appreciate people from all walks of life. The well-rounded and comprehensive curriculum consisting of all purely, psychology-related modules provides an extensive foundation for me to learn how to analyse and solve problems in life with confident. And the knowledge that I have acquired can be applied in my current workplace." Adelina also commented that she enjoyed almost every class and her most enjoyable modules at the moment are Evolution Psychology, Social Psychology and Neuropsychology.
