Scholarship / "My Hacking Dream" NTU Scholarship ESSAY [4]
Bitter experience leading to Passion
I am a hard worker and work with perseverance. I have demonstrated that in several science exhibitions that i have participated in and in academics. I bought my computer when I was studying my sixth grade for getting meritorious in that class by my dad and I predominantly used it for academic purposes and gaming only. Having scored a perfect ten in mathematics and science in my tenth board exam, my parents agreed to gift me a camera, a long standing demand. That was a chance for me to try and improve photography skills and soon enough it became my hobby. I looked up online and decided to buy one. I bought one for ten thousand rupees only to know that my dad had been charged seventy five thousand. Soon we realized we had been victims of hacking. This was my introduction to hacking.
This incident shifted my focus of my computer usage from gaming to learning and developing interest over computer security and programming.
Over the next few years I have self learnt more about computers and programming and developed special interest in computer & web security, data encryption and related areas. I like the field and have decided to make my future in that field. I would like to pursue engineering in computer science and make a mark in the subfield of system and network security.
THX for ur help...submitted this for scholarship...Hoping the Best to happen...
