Exam candidate mistaken for elementary school student...lost by invigilator

(Dan Tri) - 1.25m tall and weighing less than 30kg, student Nguyen Van Thien in Dak Lak took the high school graduation exam and was mistaken by the invigilator for an elementary school student who had wandered into the school.

At the exam site of Krong Bong High School (Krong Bong district, Dak Lak province), Nguyen Van Thien, a student of class 12A11, Krong Bong High School, attracted curiosity and interest when he entered the exam site.

Thien is only about 1.25m tall and weighs less than 30kg, the small student is lost among his peers.

When they saw Thien, some invigilators at the exam site thought that an elementary school student had gotten lost in the school, so they investigated and learned the emotional and determined story of the poor student.

Born and raised in a farming family in Cu Kty commune, Krong Bong district, Thien was unlucky because his body did not develop normally like other people. Overcoming his inferiority complex, Thien always strived to do his best in studying.

During 12 years of school, the "tiny" student Nguyen Van Thien has always been a good and excellent student of the school and is an example for many other students to follow.

When asked about his future dreams, the student softly replied: "I will try to pass the high school graduation exam well and then study a suitable profession. In the future, I can work on my own, take care of myself and not be a burden to anyone."

At school, Thien is loved by many friends because of his sociable and cheerful personality. With many fun activities at school, due to his limited health, Thien is always the one standing outside, cheering his friends on with all his heart.

The "tiny" student also cherishes the idea of building his own YouTube channel to share many stories, plans, future intentions, and aspirations to reach good things.

Ms. Tran Thi Cam Van, homeroom teacher of class 12A11, shared: "Thien is a very special student and has extraordinary willpower. Despite his disadvantages, Thien always has the will to overcome difficulties and has a strong determination that makes everyone love him. We always hope that Thien will achieve his dreams."
