Published by SchoolAdvisor on Apr 21, 2021, 09:54
Cheryl Chow Shu Wei, a 17-year-old from Beaconhouse Sri Inai International School, Petaling Jaya has once again placed Malaysia on the global academic map after being named ‘Top in the World’ for Chemistry.
Cheryl beat out nearly 1 million other students from around the world to earn the prestigious award from the Cambridge Assessment International Education during the recent Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards. Cheryl gained the highest standard mark in the world for International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations for Chemistry.
Commenting on the recognition, Cheryl said, “I am truly ecstatic to receive this prestigious global recognition. To know that I’ve been named the best in Chemistry in the whole world, it is something I could never have dreamt of!”
“This past year has been extremely difficult with the pandemic and learning from home. So, I’m even more proud of my accomplishment. Of course, none of this could have been possible without the help of my parents, teachers and peers who motivated and encouraged me to never give up and always try my best,” she added.

This is truly Malaysia Boleh!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteSadly, high achievers like that will probably be lost to benefit other countries, because , for Bolehland, she is of the "Wrong Race".
By the way, the amazing continuous world-wide growth and growth in popularity of the Cambridge IGCSE examination is a testament to Britain's continued international Soft Power, long after the Sunset of Empire.
ReplyDeleteThe Yanks and the Europeans can only look on with envy.
Their equivalent SAT and International Baccalaureate have nowhere near the same level of international demand.
In spite of the massive torrent of politically-motivated abuse being hurled against the Evil Imperialist Pommies by CCP fan boys, guess where are the fastest growing centres for IGCE examination candidates ?
China.... even 2nd and 3rd Tier cities now have IGCSE exam centres, such is the insatiable demand for Good Old Pommie standards for academic excellence in Zhongguo.
Don't lie, old money mfer!
Delete"China.... even 2nd and 3rd Tier cities now have IGCSE exam centres"
The gold standard in China is 高考. Period!
Wakakakakaka…
"the fastest growing centres for IGCE examination candidates ?"
Show yr proof!
U read Chinese ? Or u, again, die die shallow wholesome the shit from some twisted reporting from a demoNcratix newsprint?
Wakakaka...it's hard to accept you have been lied to.
DeleteYour CCP Party bosses instructed you to maximise demonisation of Pommies, while the highest echelons of your Rich and Red are busy enrolling their children under the Pommie examination system.
Your 高考 Tak Boleh Pakai outside CCP lah..
Who is ampu-ing his master, the readers' mind is clear!
DeleteI don't have to repute yr perennial fart of inconsequential when u have lost an argument!
"高考 Tak Boleh Pakai outside CCP lah"
Wakakakakaka…
Many Chinese top scorers have been accepted into the top universities of the world with full scholarship using their 高考 score sheets!
U won't know that, would u, old moneyed mfer?
Truly parading yr know-nothingness AGAIN!
"Your 高考 Tak Boleh Pakai outside CCP lah.."
