6. Nguyen Thi Chau Loan (Faculty of Oriental Studies)
Nguyen Thi Chau Loan majored in Literature at Vinh Phuc High School for the Gifted. Chau Loan said she really likes journalism, especially radio journalism, and wants to become a radio announcer. Therefore, before submitting her university application, she planned to take the entrance exam to the School of Journalism. However, the Oriental Studies Department - University of Social Sciences and Humanities was Loan's final choice. She explained: "I have learned about the Oriental Studies program and found it particularly interesting. I also like to travel to many places, explore the cultures of many lands, especially Eastern cultures. When I go to university, I will try to study well to study abroad and become a good interpreter." Loan added: "However, I will not give up my passion for journalism and will consider it as a part-time job in the future, if possible. Moreover, studying Humanities, after graduation, I can still work as a journalist!" One particularly interesting thing that surprised many people about this friend: the C-block subjects are not the subjects that Chau Loan is best at, nor are they the subjects that Loan loves the most. Loan revealed that her strength and the subject that she "likes" the most is Chemistry. Her overall Chemistry score at school is always at the top of the class with an extremely high overall score of 9.8. However, to fulfill her dream, she still decided to take the Literature exam and study the C-block. In grade 11, Loan won the third prize in the provincial Literature competition and always maintained the top position in the class in terms of academic results.
