Chapter 271 Passing the Exam
An Xin: "Tomorrow we'll estimate our scores and fill out our college applications. There will be standard answers available then, so we should have a general idea of how many points we'll get. But even if we know a rough score, there's no overall statistical data, so there's no reference standard, making it difficult to fill out the applications."
Liu Yi: "It's okay, just fill in the schools you want. After the scores come out, we can use our connections to change your choices based on the actual scores."
An Xin: "It can... be like this?"
Liu Yi: "Otherwise what? If you do well on the exam but don't dare to apply to good schools, wouldn't that be a waste? You've put in a lot of effort for every point. If your scores aren't high enough for a good school, you shouldn't miss the opportunity to apply to a regular university. After all, even a regular university is pretty good. A university degree is very valuable."
Luo Xingguo: "I don't know who decided on this method of filling out college applications based on estimated scores. Can't we fill out the applications after the scores are released?"
Liu Yi: "So, I'll let you fill in your ideal schools. If your scores don't meet the requirements, we'll figure something out."
The next day, Anxin and her friends went to estimate their scores and fill out their college applications.
With Liu Yi's words of reassurance, Luo Xingguo said, "I don't want to estimate the score anymore. What's the point of estimating it? I don't know the overall score situation in the city, nor do I have any previous years' scores to compare with. I'll just apply to Peking University. He studies history, and he believes in the principle that studying history brings wisdom."
Monkey and Taozi didn't estimate their scores either, and both applied to Peking University directly. Monkey chose to study law, and Taozi chose to study philosophy.
Luo Xingguo asked An Xin, "An Xin, why don't you apply to Peking University too? Peking University has a broadcasting and hosting major. You have a nice voice. Whether you become a reporter or a broadcaster/host, applying to this major will allow you to utilize your strengths."
Luo Xingguo even went to investigate and found out that Peking University had this major, and that it was a good fit for An Xin.
An Xin was somewhat touched by Luo Xingguo's actions.
Kyoto University is the best university in the country, and all its programs are top-notch!
Luo Xingguo was right, so in the end, An Xin also applied to Peking University.
The scores came out a month later. All four of them took the humanities exam. Because An Xin took the humanities exam, they all chose the humanities exam for the convenience of studying.
An Xin ranked 5th in the city's liberal arts category, Luo Xingguo ranked 29th, Houzi ranked 33rd, and Taozi ranked 35th.
If you rank in the top 50, applying to Peking University will be no problem at all.
After the results were released, the military compound was in an uproar.
Everyone was talking about it.
In this year's college entrance examination, four students from military compounds ranked among the top fifty in the city, completely shattering people's stereotypes about children from military compounds.
Many people thought that the children in the military compound were very unruly and generally did not study hard. Now, four such outstanding students have emerged, which has brought honor to the people in the military compound and inspired everyone there.
Their children can also have good education.
So when the scores came out, the people in the military compound were very welcoming to An Xin and her three companions and their families.
The happiest people were naturally Mr. Luo and Jiang Yuting.
The Luo couple thought that as long as An Xin and Luo Xingguo could get into university, that would be the best news for them.
After all, 570 million people registered for the college entrance examination nationwide, but only 27.3 were admitted, resulting in an admission rate of only 4.8%.
Therefore, as long as someone can get into university, even an ordinary one, they are extremely rare.
Unexpectedly, An Xin and Luo Xingguo not only passed the exam, but also ranked among the top 30 in the city, making it a sure thing for them to get into Peking University, the best university in the country.
Old Luo felt happier than when he led his troops to victory in battle.
The Luo family, a family of military generals, finally has a scholar among its members.
As Mr. Luo often said, in times of peace, the country needs talented people with culture and knowledge.
When Liu Yi and Luo Shaoping heard the scores were released, they rushed back home. Liu Yi and her mother-in-law cooked a sumptuous meal together, and the whole family ate with great joy.
Old Luo drank with his son and grandson for a long time.
After finishing her meal, An Xin called her mother to share the good news and chatted with her younger siblings for a while.
Su Jinru was naturally so happy that tears welled up in her eyes.
She always thought An Xin would get into university, but she never expected her to be so amazing, achieving the fifth-highest score in the liberal arts in Beijing.
That's Beijing! A place teeming with talent, a hidden gem of a city!
Parents often pressure their children to make up for what they lack.
Su Jinru's biggest regret in her previous life was her lack of education, but after being reborn, she thought she no longer had any obsession with it.
But without realizing it, she still expressed and passed this obsession on to her child.
To make up for this regret, the child has been studying very hard since childhood.
At this moment, Su Jinru finally breathed a sigh of relief.
From now on, the fate of Anxin and Anran, the two children, will be in their own hands. They can decide for themselves what kind of life they want.
Originally, Taozi planned to treat everyone to a meal at a state-run restaurant after the scores were released.
However, after his parents found out his score, they invited a large group of relatives and friends to their home to congratulate him.
The same applies to the monkeys' home.
Later, when I called Luo Xingguo, I learned that although not all of his relatives and friends could gather together to celebrate, his parents had come back and they had cooked a delicious meal.
So they all temporarily went back to their own homes to receive their families' celebrations.
After his family calmed down, Taozi wanted to treat them to a meal.
But at this time, An Xin was sent to the countryside again.
Taozi: "Anxin, you're so hardworking. You're about to go to university, there's no need for you to work so hard! I wonder which company you'll be assigned to after graduation!"
Luo Xingguo: "Forget it, let's treat each other after the admission notice comes out! We'll be going to the same university and seeing each other every day. You'll have plenty of opportunities to treat us to meals then."
Monkey: "Yeah! Before going to university, let's stand guard until the very end!"
I received the admission notice about two weeks after the scores were released.
The four students received their admission notices almost simultaneously, as they were from the same school and the notices were issued uniformly by the school.
This incident once again stirred up a wave of discussion within the military compound.
An Xin and the Three Musketeers became the subjects of education for all school-age children in the military compound.
"You must study hard so that you can be like xxx and others in our military compound and get into Peking University."
After receiving his acceptance letter, Taozi invited Anxin and the others to a state-run restaurant for a meal.
This time, he generously treated us to Peking duck, sweet and sour pork, and many other dishes.
