The thought of straining your brain to analyze a math problem usually makes a student cringe, but this physics Olympiad semifinalist’s passion for math and physics is worth all his strain. Senior Jason Jong is a dedicated member of multiple academic teams, which include Math Team, Ocean Science Bowl, (and probably Science Olympiad…tryouts are this week). Jason isn’t affected by senioritis, but is instead challenging himself with several AP courses such as AP Comparative Government as if 3 academic teams aren’t time-consuming enough. Jason is driven to achieve his goals because “having a passion for physics motivates [him]. It drives [him] to be the best at what [he] likes the most.” No matter how high Jason’s aspirations are, he works incredibly hard to achieve them. Jason spent countless hours studying in order to earn his spot as a physics Olympiad semifinalist.
Jason also took a course on astrology at Pasadena Community College during 2nd semester of last year “just for fun,” but his discipline expands beyond just his hobbies. He strives to be the best he can in all subjects and challenges himself beyond his comfort zone. Jason finds motivation through his grades, and he specifically pushes to work harder with classes he isn’t too fond of like English. He is able to juggle all of his extra curricular activities while still maintaining more than a 4.0 GPA.
Jason sacrifices hanging out with his friends to focus on his own aspirations and future since he plans to major in physics in the future. However, he doesn’t only excel in academics. When he finally does find time out of his packed schedule, he enjoys playing tennis with his friends. Jason also plays the piano and is a violinist in Orchestra 3.
(I want to find out his goals for this year and how he plans to achieve them.)
