Meeting the top students of block C nationwide with 'double' joy

Special celebration of the new national valedictorians

Since last night, Dinh Thi Kim Ngan - a student of class 12C3 - Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted has not slept. Before that, Ngan was anxiously waiting for the results of the 2021 high school graduation exam. When the exam results came out and she learned that she had the highest score in the national C block, she felt even more elated and tossed and turned all night. At dawn, from Hoang Mai town, Ngan took the bus alone to Vinh to attend the Party admission ceremony at Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted. The joy seemed to double on this special day.

Ngan is one of 15 excellent students of Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted who were admitted to the Party this school year. This is a worthy reward for her after three years of continuous efforts and hard work in studying. The female student, formerly a student of class 12C3, won the third prize - National excellent student in Geography in grade 11 and the second prize - National excellent student in Geography in grade 12. With this result, from grade 11, Ngan has also secured a direct admission to university.

During the school yearsPhan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted, Ngan could have chosen an easier path, but for Ngan, studying is not only about conquering but also about having fun. Therefore, after winning the national prize in grade 11, Ngan still chose to participate in the national exam in grade 12 to improve her ranking and challenge herself once again.

Or like the 2021 High School Graduation Exam, although this exam is only meaningful for graduation because before taking the exam this year, Ngan had received a direct admission notice from the University of Foreign Languages ​​and the University of Foreign Affairs. However, after the National Excellent Student Exam that almost "exhausted her", Ngan still devoted herself to the most important exam of 12 years of schooling. During those hard days of studying, many nights in the dormitory, Ngan had to struggle with stomach pain.

This year’s competition took place during the hot weather, the pandemic and the long online classes, which further challenged her determination. Therefore, the result she achieved is a special gift for herself, her teachers, her family and her school. That is also the biggest motivation for her to come to this competition.

Youth must contribute and do useful things.

To have the titlevaledictorianIn the national C block, Ngan had outstanding results with 9.5 in Literature, 10 in History and 9.75 in Geography. Of these three subjects, 10 in History was the subject that surprised me the most. A 9.5 in Literature seemed to me to be a very progressive achievement. I was a bit regretful in Geography because it was my strong subject but I got the wrong answer in question 78. Talking about this, this female student also said: Our advantage is that we have reviewed a lot for the National Excellent Student Exam but this is also a difficulty because the way of studying and taking the exam in these two exams are completely different. When switching to reviewing for the high school graduation exam, taking the multiple choice test and choosing correct and approximate questions sometimes makes students confused.

In fact, in class 12C3, Ngan is not only good at social subjects but also at natural subjects. Teacher Phan Duc Son - the teacher who directly teaches Geography said: Ngan is a well-rounded student and in natural subjects, the subject teacher still gives her a score of 10 because she studies very seriously and is very smart. Ngan is also a very hard-working student because when she first entered Phan School, she chose to major in Literature, not Geography. However, after joining the team, Ngan tried very hard and was never discouraged despite difficulties.

To study well, Ngan's secret is also very simple, that is, in addition to being diligent, you must have a suitable learning method. For example, with Literature, although she admits that "I don't practice writing but I read a lot of books", History is "I love it because the teacher often puts stories into events and I will try to learn and remember the lessons in class". Geography is a favorite subject, so to study well, Ngan also practices a lot of questions. This is also her favorite subject because when studying Geography, she can connect with life outside and can explore nature and life around her.

Talking about this year's exam, Ngan is also happy because she thinks she did well in the Literature subject, in which the question about "the dedication of youth" in the Social Essay section inspired her. Personally, she also thinks that youth should contribute and do things that are useful to society.

Receiving the results of her students, teacher Le Thanh Huyen - homeroom teacher of class 12C3 was not surprised because for her, this was a worthy achievement of Ngan after her tireless efforts. Talking about Ngan, the homeroom teacher also has not forgotten the messages that Ngan sent her after the national excellent student exams. At that time, although there were times when Ngan was very "tired", she still told herself and her teacher to try hard and be determined because she wanted to have really good results to be worthy of the school she was studying at. Last night, when she heard that she was valedictorian, she also texted her homeroom teacher and happily said: Teacher, I did it.

With this result, Ngan will also enroll in the Economic Law Department - Hanoi Law University. After her efforts, this girl is also confident that she will enter a new environment well and will strive to become a good student, an exemplary Party member.
