These are two students who just joined the Vietnamese team to participate in the 18th Asian Physics Olympiad held in the Russian Federation.

This contest had the participation of 153 contestants from 22 countries and territories. As a result, 7/8 contestants from Vietnam won awards with 1 Gold medal, 3 Silver medals and 3 Certificates of Merit.

Among them, student Tran Huu Binh Minh won a Silver medal and student Phan Tuan Linh received a Certificate of Merit. Both students are students of class 12A3 - Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted.

Returning from Yakutsk City, Russian Federation and receiving the love of his hometown, student Tran Huu Binh Minh could not hide his emotions. For him, the past journey has been truly memorable, with both joy and happiness, but also regret.

However, the Silver medal and the experience of participating in the Asian Physics Olympiad with other countries will give me valuable experience. That is also the luggage for me to be more confident in participating in the International Physics Olympiad scheduled to be held in Indonesia next July.

As for Phan Tuan Linh, although he was only awarded a Certificate of Merit in this competition, with his 2nd place in the national team selection round, Linh continued to be one of the 5 candidates to make it to the Vietnamese team to participate in the International Physics Olympiad.

Talking about the exam she just took part in, Linh said: The most regrettable thing for me in this exam is that my health is not good so I could not do the exam in the best way. Although the result was not as expected, but during the entire time of the exam, I always received encouragement and help from teacher Tran Van Nga, friends and teachers in the group. That concern and trust will be the motivation for me to continue to strive and try harder in the upcoming exam.

From this initial success, the provincial education sector believes that the students will continue to strive to achieve even higher results in the upcoming exam. From there, once again, the studious achievements of Nghe An students will be added to, and the achievements of Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted - one of the leading training centers in the country.
