At 11 pm on Ju­ly 3, when Ebra­heem Jdid logged in to the Sec­ondary En­trance As­sess­ment (SEA) ex­am por­tal, he did not think the re­sults would show Holy Cross Col­lege.

“I was sur­prised that I passed for that school, I did not feel like I was go­ing to pass there, but I tried my best and I did it,” he said.

The 13-year-old’s un­cer­tain­ty stemmed from the fact that he had on­ly ten months to study for the SEA ex­am.
