SPM top scorer Grace Kiew Sze-Ern (pic) has proven that students can excel in examinations without attending tuition classes.
“What we learn in school is enough. We could just do revision by ourselves at home,” said the SMK (P) Sri Aman student after collecting her results in school yesterday.
Kiew, 17, who obtained 15A+s, is the second top student in the country’s SPM 2009 results.
When asked what was her secret, she replied in jest: “Study hard and pray a lot.”
However, she admitted to crying the day before collecting her results due to pressure, and was relieved that she did so well.
Born in Warrington, Britain, and raised in Malaysia, Kiew was a principal cellist in her school’s orchestra.
She also speaks Japanese and a little bit of Korean.
Kiew is looking at options such as medicine and dentistry.
Principal Alainal Hasani Md Noor said she was very proud of her students’ achievement.
“It’s a gift from them to me,” said Alainal.
Another student, Siti Aqeela Shaik Mohamed, who obtained 10A+s, was in tears when she received her result slips from the principal.
