Congratulations to Batch 2020’s JAEDA ERIN QUILACIO, recipient of SSC’s ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AWARD!
Jaeda garnered the highest Predicted Grade for the IB Diploma and also shared the highest marks for IB DP’s Subject Group 1 (Language and Literature), Subject Group 3 (Individuals & Societies) and Subject Group 5 (Mathematics).
Her impressive academic performance paved the way for her to receive offers from UK’s Top Universities (UCL, Warwick, King’s, Manchester) and also PH’s Ateneo de Manila University (Business Management Honours Class) and Dela Salle University (Applied Economics major in Financial Economics).
Jaeda’s extra hard work and commitment to her studies was fueled by her goal to be able to study abroad. Thus, she claims it was not difficult to push herself and keep a consistent work ethic that allowed her to hurdle the rigor and heavy workload that the IB Diploma is known to be.
Jaeda also gives credit to the motivation she received from her family, friends and school. “Despite the IB being as difficult as it is, I was able to accomplish it all through the encouragement of these people, as well as satisfying the standards I had set for myself.”
Indeed, now you know what it takes to continue maximizing your potential and realising your goals! And even if you fall at times (which happens even to the best of us), you know how to get up and keep going, Jaeda!
