The Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar (WCM-Q) Dean’s Honor List recently recognised the academic performance of 53 high-achieving foundation and pre-medical students during a ceremony.
The list included students who received a grade point average of 3.75 or higher during the Fall or Spring Semester of the 2021 – 22 Academic Year. An impressive 30 students scored a double victory by securing a spot on the list during both semesters.
Speaking during the event, WCM-Q Dean Dr Javaid Sheikh, congratulated every student on the Dean’s Honor List. He said that being included in the list is not an easy accomplishment, as it takes excellence and commitment to be named as a high-achiever, qualities which, he said, the students have all clearly demonstrated, without question.
WCM-Q Associate Dean for Student Affairs Dr Sean Holroyd said that the students have laid themselves a strong foundation on which they can further build their knowledge as their medical studies progress.
One of the awarded pre-medical students from the Class of 2026, Aisha Al-Mulla, shared that without the help of her family, she would not have had the opportunity to be included in the list.
I am really grateful for that. I also want to express my gratitude to the WCM-Q instructors for their support and guidance over the years.
WCM-Q alumnus Dr Mohammed Al-Hijji from the Class of 2011 and now a consultant in interventional and structural cardiology at Hamad Medical Corporation Heart Hospital, gave the keynote speech at the ceremony. He said that the best preparation for tomorrow is to do today’s work superbly well, a saying by Sir William Osler best exemplified by this year’s group of high achievers.
You are here tonight because of your perseverance and self-discipline to achieve outstanding work. You are here tonight because you have woken up every day at Weill Cornell to set an example as future leaders.
