Congratulations and Encouragement: Navigating Post-A/L Opportunities Congratulations on the best-performed students! Approximately 45,000 students are admitted to state universities, with around 2,088 for medicine and 2,300 for engineering faculties. However, parents and students should not be discouraged if they have not been selected for a state university. Prof. Sampath Amaratunge discusses the various options available after receiving A/L results. He emphasizes the importance of personal growth and becoming a better citizen, encouraging students not to compare themselves with others. The professor highlights the diverse opportunities available, including private campuses, foreign education, open university, external degrees, and technical education. He reassures students that even if they fail or receive lower results, there are still options to pursue certificates, diplomas, and eventually degrees. Prof. Amaratunge stresses that many successful individuals have followed alternative paths, and it is possible to achieve goals like an MBA or postgraduate degree from state universities through perseverance and determination. The key message is not to get discouraged by setbacks and to explore the various avenues available for personal and professional growth. www.studentlanka.com #studentlanka #hiran_amarasekera
