NGUYEN MINH ANH’s Story

About me

My family consists of five members: my parents, my sister, my twin brother, and me. At home, we have affectionate nicknames: my brother is called “Squirrel” for his agility, while I’m “Rabbit” for my cleverness. Although my academic achievements are less outstanding than his, I can quickly adapt to new environments thanks to my energetic and open-minded nature. I am an extrovert and quite a perfectionist, always believing in myself and listening to my inner voice before making decisions. My brother and I often chat about all sorts of things after school, from friends to class matters, but we rarely touch on mathematics.

Being friendly, careful, thoughtful, and highly responsible, along with an interest in business, are part of my nature, inspired by inheriting mathematical knowledge from my parents, who both work in economics. I’m quick with numbers and calculations. Even though I’m not one to read many books on economics or a math prodigy, I’m fascinated by the transformation of numbers and aspire to gain a deeper understanding of the economic development in Vietnam and the world.

With my friendly and easygoing personality, I can effortlessly blend into a new environment or quickly adapt to unexpected events or situations. When receiving new information, I don’t feel overwhelmed or anxious. I stay calm, explore and analyze opinions, and devise the most precise and detailed plan. I also have feminine hobbies, such as watching Korean dramas and enjoying fruit.

I belong to Gen Z—the most dynamic, educated, and tech-savvy generation in history. We have access to a wealth of educational resources, from traditional schools to online courses and accessible learning materials available on the internet. Understanding the importance of education, I continuously seek learning opportunities to enhance my knowledge and skills. As we approach the workforce, we gain insights into organizations’ and businesses’practices and operations. Consequently, I aspire to contribute to developing and shaping the future economy and society.practices and operations. Consequently, I aspire to contribute to developing and shaping the future economy and society.

With a diverse education encompassing all aspects of life—academic learning, future employment, and societal engagement—my peers and I have acquired essential soft skills for the modern job market. Not only am I confident in traditional fields such as mathematics, science, and languages, but I am also adept at using advanced technologies. This helps our generation adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing work environment. I am eager to work in friendly environments where everyone feels welcomed, respected, and free from discrimination based on gender, race, religion, or other personal characteristics.

Growing up in the digital age, I use technology and am proficient and innovative with the latest features of modern tools. Recognizing that technology is an integral part of the daily lives of young people, I value and leverage its benefits for personal and societal development. I can access information quickly, connect with peers worldwide, and use digital tools to enhance productivity and creativity in problem-solving. This advantage will support my career development in business after graduating from university.

I rarely talk about myself—my story is not about academic achievements or awards but rather the enthusiasm of youth, passion, and determination. I believe that, like you, everyone can achieve their dreams, whether in business or any other field, once they enter university, becoming a meaningful part of the Gen Z generation.

The journey of self-improvement is not just about counting the days, as the path ahead is filled with challenges. However, with support from family, friends, and teachers, I will continue to pursue my 17-year-old dreams.
