West Island is pleased to announce that after undertaking the SCAT Advanced Test conducted by the Centre for Talented Youth – John Hopkins University (JHU), Year 8 Student Aditya Shrisankaraan’s scores have secured him with Grand Honors award. Aditya took the Grade 7 and above advanced level test in which he scored 99%. It is because of this almost perfect score that he will be felicitated with this honour, one that is only given to the top 1% of the 35,000 candidates who take the test annually.

Aditya has received an invitation to receive his award at the Grand Ceremony at the JHU campus in Baltimore on 16 October. Additionally, his scores have secured him to undertake intensive courses for 3 weeks on a subject of his choice on the campus every summer from now until Year 13.

Huge congratulations to Aditya! This is an amazing achievement and he must be applauded for all his hard work.
