Academically, I have excelled in all of my subjects: being ranked top 5 per cent of the students in my year shows that I have stamina and am eager to learn.

I hope that you will find me well qualified for this position and I would like to reiterate my strong interest in discussing this opportunity and my qualification with you further.
