Three Al Irsyad Purwokerto High School Students Accepted into World's Top Universities
Al-Irsyad Al-Islamiyah Boarding High School in Purwokerto, Banyumas, has made history by having three of its students accepted into various top universities worldwide. The three students, Aflaha Prasetyo, Ashraf Zein Firjatullah, and Faadil Firman Abdurrahman Arkananta, are also Hafiz (memorizers of the entire Quran).
Aflaha was accepted into 10 universities, including the University of Toronto (Canada) and the University of Queensland (Australia). He revealed that preparations started since the 11th grade, focusing on research and English language skills. The school principal, Sudrajat, stated this success is the result of a curriculum that balances academics and independent learning.
This achievement shows that a focus on religious education does not hinder academic performance. Currently, the three students are finalizing their administrative preparations before departing for their respective destination countries.
