Three Clever dux line up for brilliant careeers
Three dux from the one pond, each as gifted as the other. Identical triplets Amy, Kate and Lisa Stevenson have been collectively crowned dux of Wavell High in Brisbane north. But don’t be fooled, each studied different subjects and are crafting their own stories.
First-born Amy wants to be a lawyer, Kate a dipolmat or international aid worker, and Lisa a reasearcher or conservationist. Only 0.25% separated the sisters senior grades – a result authorities rile to close for call. “Being a triplet has defined us and how people see us but we are individuals and like to express that,” said Kate.
The trio, born 2 mins apart in England, came to Brisbane in 1996 with father Tom and mother Jaci. Mrs. Stevenson said a, “positive competition” developed in the sisters. The girls will be crowned at their school on Nov. 29.
Are these tripplets an example of nature of nurture?
From reading this newspaper article do you think intelligence is a set trait or something that is gathered from our environments?
