Fantastic results for Aarzoo who plans to attend Heckmondwile Grammar
Aarzoo Khan achieved outstanding results: five grade 9s, three 8s and a 7 and is now going to Heckmondwike Grammar 6th Form to study Biology, Chemistry and Maths A-Levels, and to do an EPQ.
In the future, she would like to study Medicine, ideally at Oxford and in support of that, she is currently doing work experience at Bradford Royal Infirmary which was organised through school.
Aarzoo said what really helped her, was amazing and passionate teachers who she could go to any time for help as well as lots of encouragement from her parents. She said that Hegarty Maths helped improve Maths a lot from when she was in year 9. She found revising with friends and helping each other out helped too. Her advice to other students is:
“Start revision early so you know what works for you. Once I discovered flashcards worked for me, that helped a lot. Before that I used to spend a lot of time trying to revise, but not feeling like it was working.”
Miss Ali (assistant year leader) described Arzoo as:
“an amazing student who constantly pushes herself to be the best that she can be and never settles for less than that!”
