“I can imagine that in my professional life I’ll get something better because at KSCP I have been exposed to quite new areas which I had never imagined. It’s not an educational organization but it’s just like a family, as it inspires the students to achieve their dreams by providing a comprehensive plan paired with a mentor that provides support. ”
