“I almost can’t believe it! I’m so glad that I can share this achievement with my sister, as we helped each other to prepare for the examinations,” said Charlotte.

The twins kept squealing in delight and thanking their parents and teachers for motivating them to study hard.

Mohd Rifaat said his SMK St John classmates would read notes to him which he would put through a Brailler.

“I want to pursue an education degree so I can help other blind students succeed in life,” he said.

Syivero said his older brother had often inspired him to study hard.

“I come from a family of farmers, and I want to make my parents proud, like my brother did,” said the Arts student from SMK Kota Marudu, Sabah.

Low, 21, a former student of SMK St John, Kuala Lumpur, who came out tops in the spastics category, said he believed in studying consistently.

Low, who suffers from muscular atrophy, said his biggest challenge was to maintain his strength.

“Not having enough physical strength is always an issue, because my condition makes me tire easily,” he said.
