Can an average Malaysian student with B in Science and C in Mathematics achieve her dreams of becoming a doctor? Inspired by two true stories.
"Be someone who'll make me proud."
Following the words of her late grandmother, 16 years old Jannah Ismail had set her mind on becoming a medical doctor, much to the scepticism and disbelief of those around her. To prove her worth, Average Jane-nah must first, gain admission to the prestigious science stream in her school, despite her C in Mathematics.
Jannah's next course of actions resulted in her getting transferred to another school, grouped in the same class with the carefree, troublemaking art stream students of 4-D, who had, for unjustifiable reasons, been banished by the principal to a spooky and mysterious old house located at the back of the school for more than a year.
Miss Eleanor Yee, a young teacher aspiring to change the world, had tasked herself with several missions; to help Jannah become Doctor Jannah, and to bring 4-D back to their old classroom. For these to happen, she would need all the help she could get from the all-rounder 'superior' science streamers of 4-A, aka the school's own Marie Curies and Isaac Newtons, without the imperious principal meddling in their ways.
