Honourable Mention for Year 12’s Charlotte in Rethink Essay Competition

Following on from her earlier success in the Immerse Medical Essay Competition, we are delighted to announce that Year 12’s Charlotte has gained an Honourable Mention in the prestigious Cambridge Rethink Essay Competition.

Charlotte, who hopes to study Medicine, wrote a 2,000 word essay entitled ‘Should We Move Further Forward with IVG?’. In it, she assessed new techniques used with cells, including exploring the possibility that emerging developments might remove the need for blood and organ donors in the future.

The Rethink Essay competition is an international one, and thousands of competitors entered from across the globe. Charlotte’s essay had to get through four rigorous rounds of blind review by scholars from Cambridge, Oxford, Stanford, MIT and Ivy League universities, and she has done exceptionally well to gain an Honourable Mention.

The judges commented that her “outstanding essay and intellectual contribution have truly set her apart, and we are delighted to acknowledge her remarkable achievement”.

Very well done indeed, Charlotte.
