Yeji

Mother: Kyoung Ean Rim, Homemaker

Father: Sung Joon Cho, Architect

Goals: To become a Veterinarian

A well-rounded student, Yeji is in the 99.9th percentile of the KADC Korean Intelligence Test and was High Honors at the 2010 Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth international mathematic and verbal talent search. The only thing more important to her than excelling in every single subject is her love for animals.

School comes so easy for Yeji, that she reads a book a day, just to stay busy. Yeji moved to American at the age of three and within one year, she spoke English so well that no one even knew it was her second language.

Why she’ll win?

As a versatile student and poignant speaker, Yeji excels in all subjects and has taken school by storms. No matter what the subject, Yeji has the confidence of someone 20 years her senior.
