Form One whizkid (14) passes O Level exams with 3 A’s and 3 B’s

Must Try

Trending

A Form One pupil, Shalom Zingwe, has put many learners older than her to shame after she managed to pass the Cambridge O Level exams at the first time of asking.

Zingwe, who took the exam when she was only 14, managed to garner three A grades in Computer Science, Accounting and Economics. She also scored Bs in Mathematics, Geography and Business Studies.

Zingwe is a pupil at Atlantic Academy in Harare. The school’s director Patience Mufokozana said her parents had agreed with a plan to fast track her to A Level.

“We agreed that she should proceed to Lower Sixth Form because she passed very well. Normally, learners take these exams aged 16 or 17 and it’s quite remarkable that she achieved this at only 14,” said Mufokozana.

Another prodigy from the same school, Kudzaishe Mhaka, took the exams aged 15 and scored seven A grades in Chemistry, Physics, Accounting, Computer Science, Mathematics, Biology and Geography.

Please also take note that academic intelligence is not a guarantee of being the most successful person economically.It gives a good foundation on the academic side but that has to be converted into something economically beneficial to the individual. You may realise that other less intelligent people than her may far beat her in being successful in the competitive economic world.You therefore have to abstain from implying that her pass is putting other learners who may be less intelligent to shame.

There is no shame here but to simply indicate that the child has done very well academically to create more opportunities for her to advance academically

It sounds unreasonable. What syllabus was she doing when she was in form 1. Just from grade seven to form 1. Then o level. Sarcastic. Somehow someone knows better. Is there anyone with her intellectual backgrounds ie academically . Bangwe ba rata go rekisa di-blog tsa bone.
