On Wednesday, May 24, 10 dedicated LCS students took on the challenge of this rigorous examination, which consisted of 30 multiple-choice questions to be completed within 60 minutes. The contest drew the participation of 798 students across Ontario, all currently enrolled in Grade 11 or Grade 12 Physics courses.
In the Grade 11 division, LCS students exhibited their outstanding performance, securing top scores that placed them among the elite participants.

Evelyn Chen '25 closely followed, attaining an exceptional percentile rank of 91, while David Li '25 showcased his proficiency with an impressive percentile rank of 82.

His dedication and commitment to academic excellence have paved the way for this remarkable feat.
