THIS year's A-Level Examinations have proved that both arts and science students are capable of outstanding achievements at Maryknoll Convent School.
The excellent academic abilities of arts student Christine Liu So-yu and science student Vivien Mak Wai-man won each of them four As in the examinations.
Christine, 19, scored A(1)s in Economics, Geography, Liberal Studies [AS] and Use of English [AS].
''It was unbelievable!'' she told Young Post . ''I am only an average student in class. I never expected to get four As. My parents and I were astonished.'' There was another reason why Christine was so surprised: she did not start studying seriously until the mock examination, which was in May.
She admitted that she was not always diligent, but intensive studying for several months made all the difference.
Christine, former president of the Legion of Mary, plans to study psychology at the University of Hong Kong.
