Leung Ka Long
2022-23 Associate of Science (Year 1)
In the past year, HKU SPACE CC offered me sufficient learning opportunities. The library and computer centre let me learn more efficiently. Even though I was not an active learner, my lecturers still encouraged me to study. My classmates assisted me in solving academic issues because we all had a mutual target university admission. The failure in HKDSE was just a part of the learning progress. The associate degree gives you another chance for compensation.

2022-23 Associate of Science (Physics Theme) (Year 2)
The teachers in HKU SPACE CC and HKU are friendly. They were willing to answer my questions patiently. Also, the summer bridging course is very helpful for my study. I appreciate it!
About the tips in studying, it is crucial to make friends and form study groups. Friends will give you emotional support. During the pandemic year, all courses were taught through Zoom. I felt afraid and lost at that moment. Luckily, my friend encouraged me and studied with me every day. Eventually, my friend and I got high GPA that semester!

2021-22 Associate of Science (Earth and Environmental Science Theme) (Year 2)
In HKU SPACE CC, I sought help form lecturers whenever I didn’t understand the concepts taught, both face to face after lesson time or through email. So, don’t be shy when you have questions. I kept doing revision on the lecture materials after every lesson and therefore it didn’t take me much time to study before the exam. Good luck and hope you have a pleasant experience in HKU SPACE CC.

During my study at HKU SPACE CC, I met many friends of different backgrounds . At first, I was nervous at learning new subjects, I overcame the difficulties with the help from my friends and college lecturers. The key of success was studying hard, putting more effort on doing homework and past papers.

2019-20 Associate of Science (Biological Science) (Year 2)
It was wonderful to be a student at HKU SPACE CC. The Science Division in HKU SPACE CC offered us a precious chance to get first-hand experience at HKU. We were able to learn, study and do experiments in a large-scale university. Not only did this provide me with the exposure to one of the best universities, but also helped me to familiarize myself with the university style of education for the future. During my two years at CC, I felt the warmest encouragement from my teachers. They provided all we needed to get into a university, from guidance and reference letters to emotional support. I am very grateful and highly recommend my fellow peers who love science to choose CC. If I were given another opportunity to choose again, my choice of HKU SPACE CC would undoubtedly remain unchanged.

It has been an amazing journey studying at HKU SPACE CC.
During my time here, I gained first-hand experiences of doing different experiments, such as plant tissue culture and mapping DNA using electrophoresis. These experiences not just strengthened my knowledge of biological sciences but made me a better candidate when applying for universities. When we were in year 2, we studied science courses offered at HKU together with the university students. It was a precious opportunity since we could directly learn from some of the best teachers in Hong Kong. Also, our social networks and horizons were broadened, which are beneficial to our future studies. Academic and mental support were provided by teachers at CC, and we received many heart-warming messages from our teachers to help us release our pressure. If you are passionate about science and want to learn from the best, do not hesitate to apply.
