The time in Edinburgh is a treasure that I can hold this memory for life. I learned a lot from my peers and professors. I had some new friends but all are nice. I also got a lot of help from the university staff and Edinburgh's... I received an offer from Imperial College London. And I will go for Biotech study as a master student in the next academic year.
