Singapore Ranked First at International Physics Olympiad

Channel News Asia July 19, 2011

Kang Zi Yang (Raffles Institution) - top Singaporean student at the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) 2011

plus also ... Winner of the Institute of Physics (IPS) Medal for the 2011 'A' Level Physics Examination

Awarded to the 10 highest scorers in each year's G.C.E. 'A' Level Physics Examination

Most physics tutors won't live to see even one of their own private tuition students get this coveted medal, much less three students (two more below)

"I also enjoy going to Mr. Phang's classes because he himself is a humorous person and ensures that all his classes are fun and enjoyable."
