Nestled in a valley, surrounded by hills is a small town in the Punjab, called Wah Cantt. (some 50 kms north west of Pakistan's capital city Islamabad, and close to the ancient Buddhist city of Taxila), where a student of the Beaconhouse School System has acquired 28 As in the University of Cambridge O-level examination! Whoaaa! But beats me why would any one set such a task for himself/herself, particularly if he could have completed not O, but A levels by now, if he is 19 years old. A bit strange.

Earlier, he was declared ‘Outstanding Cambridge Learner Award Winner’ for gaining higher marks in June 2010 Cambridge ‘O’ level exams in ‘Human and Social Biology’.

Amazing. It must be wonderful to have a photographic memory like Wah Cantt.
I wonder how many A levels he will be taking.

Guys see this to know how it all happened. For Gods sake clear up this misconception, i've also banged A levels with 10 A's. U cant go to university just by doing O levels, I wonder where goes the common sense of all these critical thinkers when they r writing up pages.Allah Hafiz.
