Dubai (UAE) Indian teen gets acceptance letters from "7 US Universities"

Hundreds of parents may have been caught bribing officials to get their child a seat in a prestigious university  but there are students who reach the top with their own hard work and merit.

A 17-year-old Indian student in Dubai, for example, has been offered acceptance letters from seven prominent US-based universities, including Ivy League schools such as Dartmouth College and University of Pennsylvania.

Other high-ranking universities, such as University of California in Berkeley, John Hopkins, Emory, George Town and George Washington University, have also offered Simone Noorali a spot.

She has studied at the Uptown School in Mirdif for all of her grade school years and has managed to keep straight A's since Year 9.

"I honestly think there is no secret to being accepted into this many universities. The whole process is about discovering yourself. Everyone has something unique to offer," 

"While applying to universities, it forced me to look back at my life and try to figure out the reason behind everything I did. I had explained all of that eloquently to universities in my college application essays," said Simone, who is also the head girl at her school.

Besides keeping her grades on top, Simone is also an accomplished pianist; she's written a book that is being used for educational purposes; she's part of the school's Model United Nations programme, and was also its inaugural secretary-general.

Finding the right balance between academics, extracurricular activities, her social life and time with family has been one of the major challenges she faced - though for her, it's not impossible to do.

When her acceptance letters started pouring in, Simone was surprised as she didn't expect the variety of choices she'd be left with.

In her college application essays, she had written about her successes, but also revealed some of the struggles she faced.

"When I was young, I was a completely different person - I was the most shy, introverted, shell of a person you could've ever met. And I think, now, if I look back, I never would've thought I could reach where I am today," she said.

"But, I think, somewhere along the path, my teachers, my friends and my family kept pushing me and helped me believe in myself. They also helped me find resilience in the hurdles I faced. The way I've grown up in the past few years has helped me reach where I am today. I couldn't have even imagined getting accepted into this many top universities."

Simone's father, Sameer Noorali, said his daughter is a "prime example" of how students can get into prestigious universities without parents having to buy their way in.

Several universities across the US, celebrities and other parents have been sued for giving and taking bribes - putting into question how many students, currently enrolled and in the past, really got there through their own hard work.

He said: "I'm very proud of her achievement. I must say to all of the parents that in a world where there are college scams and parents offer up to millions of dollars just for a seat in one of these colleges - here is proof that through sheer hard work, persistence and supporting your child, these children are very capable."

When asked which university she would be choosing, Simone said her decision would be based on which varsity offers the best programme in international relations and economics.

"I would advise students to do what they love and not force themselves into doing anything.

That's such a big part of motivating yourself and finding what you love to do," she added.

Simone's book on human trafficking in India called The Girl in the Pink Room, is being used in a few Taaleem schools by teachers and students for research purposes. It'll be available in bookstores sometime this year.

16 Famous Logos And Their Hidden Meanings

Have you ever looked at logos and wondered what their meanings were or what inspired the designer? Here are 16 logos that you see almost every day and what they represent.

1. Toyota
The three ellipses seen in the logo for Toyota represent three hearts: the heart of the customer, the heart of the product, and the heart of progress in the field of technology

2. McDonald’s
Yes, the “M” for McDonald’s and there really isn’t another meaning. In the 60’s, McDonald’s wanted to change the logo but their design consultant and psychologist Louis Cheskin insisted that they left the golden arches. According to BBC, he said customers will unconsciously recognize the logo as “symbolism of a pair of nourishing breasts.” Whether this is true or not, their logo is one of the most recognizable in the world.

3. Mobil
The importance of this logo is in its colors. The red is said to represent strength and the blue represents faithfulness and security that the company provides.

4. Pepsi
Pepsi’s old logo is the one on the left. The new logo on the right cost Pepsi $1 million. They hired Arnell Associates to come up with it. As a result, Pepsi had to spend millions more to rebrand everything. Then Arnell’s 27 page document was leaked and it was entitled, “Breathtaking Design Strategy.” It proposes that the new logo is some sort of Da Vinci Code. The logo draws on Feng Shui, the Renaissance, the earth’s Geodynamo, the theory of relativity, and much more.

5. BMW
BMW has a history in aviation and its logo stays true to its roots. The blue and white represent a propeller in motion with the sky peeking through. In fact, BMW had a role in World War II as a creator of aircraft engines for the German military.

6. Apple
The Apple logo represents the forbidden fruit from the “Tree of Knowledge” in the Biblical creation story of Adam and Eve.

7. FedEx
This logo is so creative. If you look closely you will see the arrow between the letter ‘E’ and ‘X’, which represents the company’s forward thinking ways and outlook towards the future.

8. Mercedes-Benz
The Mercedes-Benz logo is the most confident of all. The tri-star represents the company’s dominance in quality and style over all things land, sea and air.

9. Google
The Google logo has four primary colors in a row then it’s broken by a secondary color. This was entirely intentional. Google wanted to show that they don’t play by the rules and are also playful without making the symbol bulky. To do that, they just used simple letters and colors.

10. Adidas
The Adidas logo looks like a mountain to represent the obstacles that people need to overcome. Originally the logo was just three stripes and didn’t stand for anything. So they kept the three stripes and just made them slanted to resemble a mountain.

11. NBC
Ever wonder why the peacock has so many colors? It’s because during the 50’s, NBC’s owner was RCA and they had just begun to manufacture color televisions. RCA wanted people who were watching black-and-white televisions to know what they were missing, so they created a colorful logo.

12. Audi
Plain and simple, right? Well, no. Each of these hoops represent the 4 founding companies of the Auto-Union Consortium way back in 1932: like DKW, Horch, Wanderer and Audi.

13. IBM
IBM’s logo has a hidden message for the whole world. The white lines passing through give the appearance of the equal sign in the lower right corner, representing equality.

14. Volkswagen
The ‘V’ stands for “volks” which means people in German and and the ‘W’ stands for “wagen” which means car. It’s the car for the people.

15. Amazon
You may have thought the arrow looks like a smiley face, meaning Amazon’s main mission is to make their customers happy. But notice the arrow is pointing from the a to the z. This represents the fact that Amazon has a large variety of items for sale, from A to Z.

16. Baskin Robbins
The Baskin Robbins logo may look like it includes a simple BR above the name but if you take another look you will that it includes a pink number 31. This is a reference to the original 31 flavors.

"We implement what we plan, and we pursue actions not theories. The rapidly changing world requires us to accelerate our pace of development, for history does not recognize our plans but our achievements," Shaikh Mohammed said while the opening of the 'Office of the Future', the first 3D-printed office in the world. The unique building on the Emirates Towers premises will house the temporary office of the Dubai Future Foundation.

Present were Shaikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Shaikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai and Shaikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Foundation

Shaikh Mohammed stated: "We announce today the opening of the first 3D-printed office in the world, after less than a month of launching Dubai 3D printing strategy which showcases a modern model of construction. This is an experience we present to the world on implementing future technology in our lives, and it represents a new milestone for the UAE as a global leader in strategic achievements."

He added: "We see this project as a case study that will benefit regulators as well as research and development centres at the regional and international levels on real application of 3-D printing technology. We are documenting this experience and building on it to take advantage of the most important lessons, which will serve as reference points to take this technology to new levels."

Shaikh Mohammed pointed out that the competitive advantages of 3-D printing in terms of lower costsand faster delivery will make the UAE one of the most important sustainable economic hubs, enabling the effective use of this technology to establish future cities in all sectors.

Universal innovative design and competitive cost

The first 3D-printed office building of its kind in the world prepared for actual use has taken into account the integration ofa unique building design and 3D-printing technology to offer key services within the building, such as electricity, water, telecommunications and air-conditioning.

The office space covers up to 250 square metres, while the exterior design reflects the most innovative forms of future work place. The design has been conceived to achieve a shift from the traditional form of work environments and provide greater opportunities to stimulate innovation and communication between work place teams. It also offers the possibilities for joint work with experts and innovators from around the world, and a platform to inspire ideas and develop relations between employees by establishing new methods for brainstormingsessions and creating a healthy and happy environment. The design also offers space for exhibitions and workshops as well as other events.

The 3D-printed office was constructed using a special mixture of cement and a set of building material designed and made inthe UAE and the United States. These materials have undergone a range of tests in both China and the United Kingdom to ensure their reliability.
