She Rocks! St. Rose’s High School Student, Fatima Karim, achieved the Top CSEC Exam Scores

Fatima Karim of St Rose’s High School pursued 20 subjects at this year’s Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) Examination and earned 19 grade ones and one grade two earning her the top spot in the country. In an interview with New Room GY, she said..

“I feel really really excited and proud of myself, really happy…the hardest subject for me was Office Administration alone.”

Fatima shared that her reason for pursuing 20 subjects is to win a scholarship offered by the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) to further her studies.

“I pursue 20 subjects so that I could have a scholarship so that I am able to continue my studies…there is the CXC scholarship for the most outstanding and the Science; which are the only two I can apply for. The most outstanding is if you do the best in the region and the Science is if you do the best in Science out of the whole Caribbean” the St Rose’s student related.
