an overwhelming response with a total of 99 students trying out. One of the
student even waited for 4 hours just to audition for a spot in the upcoming UTAR model.

of the students waiting in line, he wanted to try out in this model search
because he was interested in being a model which indirectly enables him to promote
UTAR to other students and outsiders.
