Augusta Uwamanzu-Nna, a daughter of Nigerian immigrants, is the latest student to be offered admission to all eight Ivy League Schools. Just like any other student, the 17-year old valedictorian admits that she too had problems with some classes, but her desire to shine kept her going. She will forever remember 2016 as the year when she joined the club of the world’s smartest people.
