In recent days, Huan's small house in Le Loi ward, Vinh city has been filled with joy because of his eldest son's excellent achievements. Many neighbors, teachers and friends came to congratulate and share the joy with the family upon hearing the news.

As a Geography major student, Manh Huan demonstrated his strength in block C with an excellent score in the 2016 National High School Exam with a total score of block C of 26.75 (Literature 8.5; Geography 9.5; History 8.75), becoming the candidate with the highest score in block C in the Vinh University exam cluster and ranked 77th in the top 100 candidates with the highest high school exam scores nationwide.

However, when I learned that I was the student with the highest C block exam score in Nghe An province, I was very surprised and could not immediately believe that I had done it."

Geography is my greatest passion

The student of the Geography major at Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted received the National Excellent Student Award in Geography during his high school years and city and provincial level awards since he was a middle school student.

When talking about geography, his eyes and face lit up with passion and excitement. “When I first started learning geography in primary school, I had a special interest in this subject. Learning geography not only helps decode the natural and social world around us, but this subject also requires thinking, the ability to process and apply data,” Manh Huan shared.

Huan believes that not only in subjects but also in doing anything, one needs to have passion, interest and great determination. He also mentioned his high school homeroom teacher as a great source of inspiration, especially helping him to have more love for geography and to make more efforts in studying.

Block C is not difficult if you have the right learning method.

“People often think that block C is a combination of subjects that are difficult to learn and difficult to get high scores. However, it is not too difficult if we find something new and interesting in the learning method.” Manh Huan said that in addition to the inherent diligence and hard work when studying block C, he regularly follows information on the media system to expand his social knowledge. This will help him get higher scores on the block C exams than just memorizing basic knowledge in books.

According to Huan, to get a high score in the National High School Exam, it is not only necessary to memorize and present all the knowledge but also to know how to apply test-taking skills to create logic for the test. Especially for subjects in group C, writing to gain sympathy and high scores from the examiner is also a skill that needs to be cultivated a lot.

Failed the national excellent student exam and the dream of becoming a People's Police officer

In grade 12, Huan was on the team for the national geography exam and won an encouragement prize. “Many people may think this is a pretty good result for a high school student, but for me, this is a failure after all my efforts in the national exam,” Manh Huan confided.

Perhaps luck did not smile on the geography student at that time, but this helped him gain more motivation and determination to achieve the excellent results he has today.

With the dream of becoming a police officer, Huan applied for admission to the Investigation and Reconnaissance major at the People's Security Academy. "This is my biggest goal during my high school years. There were times when I was tired, confused and not confident that I could do it, but it was the failures in the national excellent student exam that helped me gain more determination to realize this dream," Huan shared with a smile.
