One in 220000: Spring-Ford student aces psych exam

ROYERSFORD — To find the student who achieved the only perfect score in the world on the Advanced Placement Psychology exam, you won’t have to go very far.

That’s because Amanda Jurewicz is a Spring-Ford Area High School student.

Late last year, word was officially released that Jurewicz was the only student who was flawless on her exam out of more than 220,000 issued world-wide.

“(Jurewicz) is, hands-down, one of the best students I’ve ever taught in my 14-year career,” said Susan Miscavage, the high school’s psychology teacher.

Miscavage spoke at the Spring-Ford Area School Board workshop meeting where Jurewicz was recognized last week.

Over the summer, when the grades are tabulated for the 100 multiple choice-question, two-essay exam, rumors started there was a perfect test, but the student who scored it was unknown at the time.

Still, Miscavage heard rumors that it might have been one of her students and said she made multiple calls to figure out when the results might come out.
