                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.

                  i was scratching my head - especially these few years not many VS O level top scorers nation wide.... and seemingly some schools with lesser COP than VS can have more \"top scorers\" than VS...

                  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. šŸ™‚

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

                      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?
