Award ceremonies are great headlines, but I wonder if focusing on seven top students really reflects overall improvements in academic standards.

I get your concern, but celebrating top achievers might still encourage broader academic effort even if it doesn't capture every improvement.

It's nice to reward excellence, but investing in resources for the wider student population seems more impactful than rewarding just a select few.

Schools and policymakers could use this event as a model by pairing financial awards with mentorship and support programs for all high-performing candidates.
