We in the SUIS Qingpu community congratulate our high school students for their continued successes in various competitions!

Recent academic competition success has served to proudly acknowledge that our high school students have outstanding scientific minds, as evidenced by outstanding results in a variety of science competitions: the American Invitational Mathematics Examination; the Canadian Chemistry Contest; the BIO-USACN Bio Olympiad; and the British Biology Olympiad. Our participating students symbolize the potential in every one of us when committed to a goal, and we are all very proud of them.

Personal Testimonies

As I prepared for the AMC12 and AIME competitions, I learned the importance of communication. Whenever I encounter a problem, I would ask a teacher for help, and we would then solve the problem together. In addition, I built up my resilience when facing challenging problems, I stopped giving up easily, I started working harder and I persevered. I became like water, always flowing forward and becoming more flexible to the challenges I faced.

It was my biology teacher Ms. Alan who inspired me to question more and to push myself. When I first entered school, Ms. Alan recommended that I participate in the BBO competition. Initially, I thought it would be a breeze as I had prepared for similar competitions before, but I found myself caught off guard by the changes to the examination questions in this year’s competition. At first, I was hesitant, not knowing whether I’d achieve any medals at all.

Nevertheless, during the new school year, I continued to study hard regardless of thoughts of whether I’d do well or not. I seemed to be growing a new found passion. Although I didn’t always understand everything at first, with time I began to understand more and more, and that drove me to commit more of my free time to prepare for the competition. It was a nice distraction from the pandemic that had isolated me from my friends at school. Here was a place where I felt encouraged by the teachers and my classmates; they were like the wind, pushing me forward for one final sprint. I was really happy to be a part of this competition and to have received encouragement from many of my teachers and classmates.

I’m glad that I got a Silver Award in BBO. Thank you Ms. Alan for all you support!

There is a saying in China: “Sharp tools make good work”. As a student, I pictured myself as a tool slowly being sharpened by the acquisition of new knowledge which I continue to gain. Not to mention the support I also gain from my teachers. Upon the grinding stone of learning biology, my rough edges have eroded away and have been replaced with a diligent and in-depth understanding of my subject. I feel my mind has become a lot sharper. I will constantly strengthen my understanding of the world and I feel science will be my base.
