Equity Group. I am currently going through Lehman’s analyst training in NYC, and will be flying to Hong Kong in early August. I didn’t have much time off between graduation and training. But it’s my very first time in NYC, and I am really enjoying my stay here! My job in Hong Kong will most likely be a one or two year assignment, after which I would like to come back to the States for graduate school. SAC means a lot to me. I lived there for six years, and most of my teenage memories involve SAC and people I met there. Academically SAC definitely prepared me well for my Neurobiology major at Stanford. I certainly knew more than others in math and science core classes and graduated with 3.94/4.00 grade point average with Honors and Distinction. The work ethic I developed at SAC definitely played a big part. Not just academically, but I feel my well-rounded education and all the experiences I had there made me a better student and person. I will definitely keep in touch with other Andreans in Hong Kong. Some of the HK friends I made at SAC are still among my best friends, and I would really like to see other SAC graduates I haven’t seen for a long time. I would also love to consult students who want to attend college or university in the States.” Michael Lin is in his final year of University of Waterloo’s undergraduate Architecture program.
