GWERU– 16-year-old Anderson Adventist
High student, Megan Lizelle Hill has set a mark above the rest after scoring
10As at the recently published 2020 Cambridge Ordinary Level results.
Hill sat for 10 subjects in both Sciences and Arts
combinations.
In an interview with TellZim News, Anderson High School head, Billy Caxton
Mukasvanga said the academic excellence which Megan showed was a result of hard
work and dedication.
“Anderson High
School is proud to have brilliant pupils like Hill. She has not only surpassed
the previous record but rather has inspired future learners.
“She scored straight
As in Mathematics, English, History, Religious Studies, Fashion and Textiles,
Commerce, Chemistry, Biology, Geography and Physics.
“We want her to
even score 15 points and above at ‘A’ Level. However, it is our wish that she
gets a scholarship to enroll at Cambridge or Oxford University for her degree
studies.
“As an institution
we always teach our pupils that discipline is the bridge to success and Megan
has led by example,” said Mukasvanga.
Hill said her secret to achieving the great results
was hard work saying she had to move out of her comfort zone and focus on her
studies.
“Everything is possible if we put all the effort and
concentration in what we do.
“Success does not come easy and a lot of people quit
when the journey gets tough. We were under Covid-19 and most schools adopted
online learning which was a bit challenging.
“The idea is not to be stopped by the challenges
associated with online learning but coming up with ways to overcome the challenges,”
said Hill.
She said she would like to pursue medicine after
completing her A level studies.
