Lad celebrates improved matric marks

Elsewhere, Briefly News reported that a young man had his priorities straight when deciding to sit down for a repeat of the matric exams he'd written the previous year, all to improve them.

Thanks to his humility and dedication, he achieved near-impeccable marks the second time around, in the process becoming a darling of success and perseverance of Mzansi's bustling social media community.

Heading online, @thabo_shingange shared images of his National Senior Certificate (NSC) issued to him in December 2019, as well as his most recent one handed to him in December 2020.

"Normalise upgrading your matric results than to fall into the societal trap of rushing to varsity just to study 'ANYTHING you qualify for'. Let's be more intentional with our wants and aspirations," the inspirational caption read.
