Nguyen Dinh Nguyen Khoi (born in 2002 in Ninh Binh), a student majoring in High-Quality Auditing, has just graduated as valedictorian of the Institute of Advanced, High-Quality Training and POHE, National Economics University with GPA 3.98/4.0.

In the last three semesters, Nguyen Khoi has achieved a perfect GPA of 4.0/4.0. During his graduation thesis defense, the male student achieved a score beyond the jury's expectations of 9.8/10. In addition, the 10X also has an IELTS score of 7.5.

Despite his high achievements, Nguyen Khoi always believes that the title of valedictorian is a recognition of his academic results over the past four years, not something superior.

Born into a well-educated family in the ancient capital of Ninh Binh, from a young age Nguyen Khoi was always aware of the importance of studying and trained himself to have a serious learning attitude.

With an independent personality, high pressure tolerance and the ability to work with numbers, after graduating from high school, the male student chose to study Auditing. According to the 10X, this is a major that is considered difficult with a large amount of knowledge, but in return, it will help students develop in many different fields, opening up many career opportunities.

Entering the university, the Ninh Binh male student never set a goal for the position of valedictorian. In his third year of university, by chance, when his homeroom teacher sent him his entire course's transcript, Nguyen Khoi suddenly discovered that his score was at the highest position.

“Looking at the transcript, I realized that if I tried to maintain this achievement in the future, I would have a very high chance of achieving the top position. From then on, I started thinking about this title by striving and maintaining my academic performance,” Nguyen Khoi recalled.

Sharing about his study method, 10X sums it up in two words: "diligence". Nguyen Khoi said that first of all, he must have a really serious attitude, prioritizing studying. Regardless of the subject, the male student maintains the habit of taking full notes. After each class, Nguyen Khoi continues to search for more related documents online to do his homework.

To achieve good results in each subject, Nguyen Khoi believes that students must always make every effort, whether it is attendance, midterm or final. Therefore, in each class, when teachers call on students to correct their work, the male student will proactively volunteer to answer in order to improve his score.

In addition, 10X also proactively builds relationships and connects with seniors to ask for documents and learning experiences. Thanks to that, Nguyen Khoi has received a scholarship to encourage learning from the National Economics University in all semesters.

In addition to studying, the Ninh Binh male student always actively participates in school activities, and was admitted to the Party right from his high school years at Luong Van Tuy High School for the Gifted (Ninh Binh). In his first year of university, the 10X was elected Secretary of the Youth Union. In his third year, the male student took on the position of Secretary of the Student Party Cell, then a member of the Standing Committee of the School's Youth Union.

“Joining the Youth Union and Association has given me many valuable experiences. From here, I have developed leadership skills through organizing events, managing groups and coordinating activities,” the male student expressed.

Despite holding many roles at the same time, with constant efforts, at the end of his 4th year of university, Nguyen Khoi passed the rigorous exams and won an internship at Deloitte - one of the 4 largest international auditing companies in the world.

The first time in real life, 10X was "shocked" when faced with a huge amount of work, with a lot of knowledge very different from when studying.

To catch up and get used to it, the male student asked for audit documents from previous years to study and asked someone to guide him through the parts he didn't understand. For Nguyen Khoi, the pressure helped him mature faster. "The internship helped me understand what it was like to work under high pressure and had the opportunity to apply the knowledge I learned in practice," the male student said.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai Anh, lecturer at the Institute of Accounting and Auditing, assessed that the valedictorian result was completely worthy of Nguyen Khoi's tireless efforts.

“Nguyen Khoi is a good, intelligent and hard-working student. Although he regularly participates in Union activities, he still maintains his academic performance. I am very proud to have such a student,” said Ms. Mai Anh, believing that the student will definitely succeed in the future.

After graduating, the new valedictorian of the National Economics University plans to work and complete his application for a master's scholarship as soon as possible.

Regarding the long-term plan, as a person who grew up from the Youth Union as well as a Party member, Nguyen Khoi expressed his desire to work in the system of state agencies and socio-political organizations to be able to contribute more to the Fatherland.
