Submission posture
Stretch submission copy
Prepared as a deliberate stretch packet, not as a generic send-everywhere file.
Intended direction
The strongest forward-looking case in my current file is not abstract AI enthusiasm. It is the combination of disciplined quantitative work, practical software-building growth, and the longer-term aim to use AI in systems that remain useful, understandable, and durable.
Applied AISoftware buildingTrustworthy systemsLong-run research literacy
Target-school rationale
Keep the case factual, school-specific, and clean enough to read like a real submission packet.
I want my file for Maastricht University to read as thoughtful and school-specific, not like a generic AI statement reused everywhere.
Evidence checklist
- Verified school-record continuity and promotion to grade 11
- External competition layer: HKICO Silver, HKIMO Bronze, AMC 10 participation
- Current industry update through the 1Matrix internship
- A school-specific reason tied to the programme itself
