JASON Wong Cho-yin is among the 30,000-plus seventh-formers who face their D-day today when the results of the Advanced Level Examination - Hong Kong's university entrance exam - are released.

The 19-year-old La Salle College boy was so confident that he went out to celebrate with friends last night.

He will get up early this morning and do some exercises before going to collect his results at school.

What's on your mind? It must be the A-Level results. It's a very important examination, but I think I have done rather well. I started preparing for the exams last Christmas. I took computer studies, pure mathematics, physics, Chinese language and use of English.

I think I can get some Grade As, and I am especially confident about computer studies. It has always been my best subject - I started learning computers when I was in primary five.

What course are you planning to take at university? I have decided to take information engineering at Chinese University. It is a rapidly developing area in computer studies, dealing with networks and data processing. The subject is very popular and many of my classmates have opted for it.
