  • Student athlete Zinedine Russell scores big






    SHE was not surprised when she blew through her Caribbean Secondary Examination Council (CSEC) and Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) exams; in fact, 15-year-old Zinedine Russell was "happy and relieved... and my reaction was just a smile".
    The Convent of Mercy Academy 'Alpha' high achiever decided to test the waters with CSEC mathematics in 2012, and her success in the subject encouraged her to pursue additional mathematics, principles of accounts and English language in 2013, scoring straight ones in all subjects.
    Russell placed first in Jamaica and third in the region for additional mathematics, and eighth in Jamaica for principles of accounts.
    With the bar set high, she tackled biology, chemistry, physics, geography, information technology, French and English literature in this year's examinations, and maintained the high standard she had set for herself.
    With the exception of geography, this Barbican resident scored straight A profiles in all, tucking a whopping 11 CSEC ones under her belt.

    This, Quite Simply, Is Incredible!!

    This child is just 15 years old, but consider this: between 2012 and 2014 she accumulated distinctions in eleven (11) subjects, including “killers” like mathematics, additional math and applied math

    And get this as well, not satisfied with just CSEC sittings, this genius also passed two units of pure math at the CAPE level, both with distinctions (“because I already had distinctions in mathematics and applied mathematics”)! And remember, she is today just fifteen years of age!

    Added to this is the fact that she is a serious athlete who trains and competes in various disciplines!

    Most likely (I hope) she will go off to a highly regarded university.
