Arabic term (edited):
ملتزمة بأقصى درجات المثالية
Selected
extremely idealistic
ملتزمة بأقصى درجات المثالية
literally: "true to the highest possible ideals"
By the way, I hear the TV announcements referring to the series as في إيد أمينى (fi iid Amina - إيد = colloquial Egyptian for يد) i.e. "In Amina's hand" (Yosra's character is called Amina) rather then في أيد أمينة (fi aydin amina) i.e. in good hands. It's a play on words of course, but I thought I should point that out.
