KANGAR: Identical twins Anis Sofiah and Anis Solehah Zolkharnain were among 45

candidates in Perlis who scored straight As in the Ujian Pencapaian Sekolah Rendah
(UPSR) examination this year. The sisters, from SK Tengku Budriah, said they spent
at least five hours a day studying together for the exam. "We always stick together.
We are very close. "Studying together really helped, as we can help and motivate
each other. It is definitely an advantage to be twins," said Anis Sofiah, who is the
elder sister. Anis Sofiah and Anis Solehah are no flashes in the pan, as they have
always placed first or second in their class in every year. Meanwhile, the state
