Learning Tips from Dwi Nurcahyati The Best Graduate of UM Surabaya with a Perfect GPA of 4.0

Dwi Nurcahyati, a student at the UM Surabaya Teaching and Education Faculty, was selected as the best graduate with a perfect GPA of 4.0. Not only did she get the highest GPA, this girl from Denpasar Bali apparently completed her 3.5 year study. The woman who is familiarly called Dwi apparently has a number of achievements in various regional to national level competitions.

Taking the PG PAUD Dwi Study Program, he won 3rd place in making educational games (SAPERE AUD), 2 times won traditional creation dance held by UAD Yogyakarta and Umsida in groups, 3rd place in APE held by Universitas PGRI Madiun.

“When I found out that my GPA was 4 and I was the best, to be honest, I was surprised. I never imagined this before,” said Dwi Saturday (29/10/22)

According to Dwi, he is a student who receives a superior scholarship from the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud) who gets educational facilities free of charge, starting from tuition fees, living expenses and book fees.

Dwi admitted that after graduating from high school he did not immediately continue his studies because of financial problems. He taught at TK Aisyiyah Denpasar for 2 years.

"After graduating, it's time to return and serve. It's time to apply the knowledge I got at UM Surabaya,” said Dwi.

The girl who was born in 1997 shared a number of study tips that she usually does, which led her to achieve a perfect GPA of 4.0. Apart from being active and close to lecturers, Dwi admits that he thinks things that no one else has ever thought of.

"Because my major is PAUD, I happen to really like making learning innovations for children, maybe that's one of them," said Dwi.

Then what I often do is study discipline, especially learning something new, not procrastinating on assigned assignments, often asking questions when the lecturer opens the question and answer session and actively answers various questions given by the lecturer.

"Ask everything that is unknown, meaning not asking to seek attention," said Dwi, laughing.

Furthermore, other tips Dwi tries to divide his time between academic activities, competition organizations and other activities that can develop skills. In the Dwi organization, he is part of the Muhammadiyah Student Association (IMM) organization and is the Deputy Chairperson of PAUD Hima.

In the midst of his busy activities, Dwi still manages to sell online as additional savings and sells ice cream. But selling ice cream did not last long because it took away his focus during college.

In completing her final assignment, Dwi took the title "The Effect of Home Care Learning on Group B Thinking During the Covid-19 Pandemic Period at Aisyiyah Busthanul Athfal 3 Kindergarten, West Denpasar".

At the end of his presentation he gave a message to other students.

"Don't chase numbers, but chase knowledge, because knowledge is eternal," he concluded.
