I learnt the format of the competition and the questions taught there also helped me to have a deeper understanding of the topic and gave me more confidence in the competition. In school, when I encounter quite hard questions, I can also use the techniques taught in the SIMCC classes in order to successfully solve the question."

"Through SIMCC, my parents enlisted me in SASMO, SMKC, VANDA & SIMOC. Without SIMCC, I would never have gotten exposure to attend all these exams and competing against more diverse school in Singapore and other Asian countries. SIMCC not only gave me the gateway for these exams, but through enrichment classes before SIMOC, it ensured I do well in the global platform. 2019 was really a great year for me."
