8th grade male student admitted directly to Asia's No. 1 university in 2024

On the evening of July 26, Tsinghua University announced the list of candidates admitted to the 2024 Mathematics Talent Class. Among them, Liu Renze (a student of class 8/1, Zhengzhou Foreign Language Secondary School) became the focus of public attention in this country as the youngest candidate this year to be admitted to a top university in Asia.

This fall, Nhan Trach will officially become a freshman at Tsinghua University. This means that the male student does not need to take the high school and university entrance exams. Nhan Trach's studies will last 8 consecutive years, with the "3+2+3" training model: 3 years of undergraduate, 2 years of master's and 3 years of doctorate.

On the school’s side, a representative of the admissions committee said: “This year, Nhan Trach is the only student from Henan Province (China) selected for the program. At the same time, he is also the first secondary school student in the province to be admitted to Tsinghua University. The fact that a secondary school student does not need to take the entrance exam for grade 10 and university is a rare case in the province.”

In addition to his natural talent in Mathematics, the male student has many other talents. During his studies, Nhan Trach was always diligent and constantly strived for perfection. The new student of Tsinghua University also has a hobby of exploring new things, daring to think and dare to do. This quality has created a solid foundation for Nhan Trach to go straight to university at the age of 14.

In China, Tsinghua University is the dream school of many generations of students. This result of Nhan Trach not only makes people curious, but also arouses the interest of parents about how the boy's parents discovered and nurtured their son's talent.

Nhan Trach's parents revealed that since he was a child, he showed a special talent for Mathematics. "After many years of formal training and practice through large and small Mathematics competitions, he finally reaped the first sweet fruit."

Nhan Trach's success reflects a close combination of talent and effort. Chinese experts believe that timely training is very important for gifted students.

Ren Ze's story has sparked a debate amongeducation experts in China. One is how to identify and nurture children's talents? Two is how to integrate personalized education with traditional education? Three is to reform the traditional examination-centered education system.

They emphasize the continuous improvement of education policies and the promotion of talent training plans. In this way, talented young people in China will continue to emerge.

According to experts, the results of Nhan Trach not only demonstrate individual excellence, but also reflect the importance of optimally allocating educational resources in this country today.

The Qiu Chengtong Young Talent Training Program in Mathematics (Tsinghua University) recruits and trains students from all over the world with exceptional mathematical potential and expertise. The program aims to cultivate a group of world-class young talents who are capable of leading or developing fundamental mathematics and interdisciplinary applied fields.

The quota for each year is no more than 100 candidates. The selected students belong to the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics of Tsinghua University. They are trained at the Qiuchengtong Center for Mathematical Sciences and apply the “3+2+3” model, a process that takes place continuously for 8 years from undergraduate to doctoral. The selection process takes place continuously for 4 days.
