The top Malay student is Victoria School's Muhammad Amirul Haqim Ghazali, who scored nine A1s.
Following his two older siblings, he took Chinese as a second language.
While he admits it was difficult, he said it was sheer hard work and tenacity that earned him his distinction.
Another challenge - keeping his spirits up after his father's illness last year.
\"When my dad had a heart attack, it adversely affected me. It spurred me on to have an ambition to become a heart surgeon, not only to help my family but other people who are stricken with this illness,\" he said.

then i remembered from VS's wikipedia page, it states that 30% of VJC's IP intake (from sec 3 onward's) comes from VS boys... VJC started their from sec 3 onwards IP scheme since 2005 i think but that also means currently/formerly a majority of VS 's cream of the crop after 2 years in VS will proceed into VJC as sec three and didnt take part in O level (before the new VS-Cedar-VJC IP programme in future)...
i think many of the top end boys already skipped O level and went on to VJC or maybe other IP JCs/ schs....
with VS-Cedar-VJC future IP relationship... VS and Cedar top end students will again skip O level and lesser chance of them appearing as top students in O level in future...., i.e. only left those VS and Cedar students not doing IP (those not as ultra good / not so heavenly academic wise ones) will do O levels ... -

I think the shift towards IB/IP is a trend in Singapore now. Most of the former O Level powerhouses, e.g. RI, CHS etc. are already doing it, and that is why formerly mid-tier schools like CHIJ and Crescent Girls are benefitting from these school's absence. Victoria School's O Level route may cause it to lose its best students. Hopefully the new IP will be a more complementary partnership rather than VS supplying all its best students to VJC. VS has a reputation to upkeep and I'm sure the school management knows what it is doing by taking this step.

Agreed, hope VS will continue to do well for many years to come!

Btw, seen some Victorians wearing a shorter version of the PE shorts. Is that meant only for the runners, or are they part of the VS' PE attire? -
