In his remarks, Dr. Javaid Sheikh, dean of WCM-Q, said: 'I would like to congratulate every student on your remarkable achievement making it to the Dean's Honor List. Your dedication and commitment to excellence have set you apart, and this recognition is a testament to your hard work and perseverance. This is not an easy feat. We are incredibly proud of your accomplishments and look forward to seeing you maintain these excellent grades throughout your academic journey.'

It is indeed a great accomplishment. Your hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence demonstrate your remarkable resilience and passion for learning. We are all proud of your achievement and are confident that this is just the beginning of many more success stories to come.'
During the keynote address, WCM-Q alumna Dr. Noora Al-Shahwani, Class of 2011, now attending physician, general and thoracic surgery at Sidra Medicine and assistant professor of clinical surgery at WCM-Q, inspired the students to continue working hard in their studies in order to fulfil their dreams of becoming physicians. Dr. Al-Shahwani said: 'I am honored to have the opportunity to speak to you today. As a former student who once sat where you are now, I know what it feels like to be on the Dean's Honor List. This achievement reflects your ability to balance the demands of your studies with integrity and determination.
