Chapter 297: Small Wealth Depends on Hard Work, Great Wealth Depends on Fate



Wen Ying knew her mother wouldn't object.

But Wen Ying was not sure how much the score would drop.

——Shouldn’t she win the first prize in the competition first and then consider lowering the admission score?

"There are more than a dozen universities co-hosting this event. The more prestigious the university, the smaller the score reduction, at most 20 or 30 points. Some universities are particularly sincere and give priority admission to any first-class winner who has passed the first-tier line..."

Wen Ying was being conservative based on her memories from her previous life.

For top universities, the score should be reduced by 20 points.

Judging from this year's college entrance examination in Sichuan Province, the science admission lines for two top domestic universities, Huaqing University and Peking University, in Sichuan Province are 662 points and 665 points respectively, while this year's top science scorer in Sichuan Province scored 692 points.

In 2004, students still estimated their scores after the college entrance examination and filled in their applications. It was not until next year that students started to fill in their applications based on their scores. In other words, this year, no matter whether you are a top student or a poor student, you have already filled in your applications without waiting for the college entrance examination scores to be announced.

There is a gap between estimated scores and actual scores. Science subjects have specific scoring standards. However, for subjects like English and Chinese, once reading comprehension and writing are involved, it is difficult to estimate the scores accurately.

Even the top students cannot guess how many points their essays will get, so the estimated score cannot be 100% accurate. Those top students who dare to apply to these two schools must estimate their scores to be at least 670 points to be sure.

Fortunately, the college entrance examination application policy in Sichuan Province will be changed next year. Wen Ying took the college entrance examination in 2007, and she had already filled in her application based on her scores. She did not need to estimate her scores, and could choose to apply to universities of the corresponding level based on her actual score. Wen Ying could no longer remember the specific admission scores of Huaqing and Peking University in Sichuan Province when she took the college entrance examination in her previous life. She only remembered that in 2007, the first-tier line for science majors in Sichuan Province was 533 points.

In 2004, the first-tier admission score for science majors in Sichuan Province was 538 points. Huaqing University's admission score was 124 points higher than the first-tier score, and Peking University's was 127 points higher.

Based on this score difference, if Wen Ying wanted to be admitted to these two schools, she would have to score at least 660 points in the college entrance examination in 2007.

Even if she were reborn again, Wen Ying still wouldn't dare to say that she would definitely get 660 points.

It is not that difficult to improve grades from low to high. A candidate who originally could only score more than 300 points may get more than 400 points after repeating a year. The upper limit for his improvement is very generous. It is not a problem to increase the score in each subject and add up to more than 100 points. As long as he really studies hard during the year of repeating and gets the points that rely entirely on memory and recitation, he can achieve an increase of more than 100 points.

For a candidate who originally scored over 400 points, if he repeats the year and scores over 500 points, he needs not only rote memorization, but also more understanding. It is more difficult than improving from over 300 points to over 400 points, but there are still many people who can do it.

But if you can already score more than 500 points, then if you want to increase your total score by more than 100 points and become a candidate who can sprint for Huaqing University and Peking University, the difficulty is much higher than breaking through the first two stages!

As the saying goes: Small wealth depends on hard work, middle wealth depends on virtue, and great wealth depends on fate.

If you can score 500 points, you are considered wealthy. Around 600 points is considered moderately wealthy. What is extremely wealthy? It is above 650 points.

For candidates who can score above 650 points, it is related to diligence and seriousness, but it is not just diligence and seriousness. The higher the score, the more it highlights the IQ gap between students. The top students may not be able to catch up even if they study for one hour and the poor students read for ten hours.

The memories are not so good. Wen Ying doesn't want to admit that she is a poor student, but she entered a key provincial school in her previous life, and when she took the college entrance examination, she was only a middle-class candidate, and was still several tens of points away from becoming rich and powerful.

Even if the admission score drops by 20 points, Wen Ying still can’t get into top universities like Huaqing University and Peking University. Even if the admission score drops by 30 points, Wen Ying still can’t get into these universities.

Therefore, before she scored less than 650 points, Wen Ying never considered whether she would be admitted with a lower score because of the New Concept Writing Competition.

Wen Ying set the standard a little high, so high that she looked down on the policy of reducing the score for the first prize in the New Concept Writing Competition.

Chen Ru is different!

When Chen Ru heard that the score could be reduced by at least 20 points, and that the most generous universities could even lower the admission score to the first-tier line, her eyes lit up.

Chen Ru never thought that Wen Ying could be admitted to Huaqing University or Peking University. There are more than these two famous universities in the country. If the admission score is lowered by 34 points, Wen Ying might really be able to study in a famous university?

Judging from Manager Chen’s current financial management level, even if it only drops by 20 points, the benefits of going to Shanghai to participate in the competition are far greater than the cost. It only delays two or three days. Why not go? Studying for two or three more days will not improve your score by 20 points!

The significance of going to Shanghai to compete is much greater than going to Macau to play before.

Chen Ru supported it with both hands and feet.

Not only did she agree to let Wen Ying go to the Magic City to compete, she also took leave to accompany Wen Ying.

"ah?!"

Wen Ying was surprised, "Mom, you don't even go to work?"

Chen Ru rolled her eyes at her and said, "Of course I have to go to work. How can I support you if I don't work? But it's okay to take a couple of days off occasionally."

Working at a bank is indeed busy, but if you have good performance like Chen Ru, it is easy to ask for leave. Chen Ru still thinks that lowering the score for admission is more important.

Before going to Shanghai, Chen Ru had already reserved the first prize in the semi-finals for Wen Ying, and Wen Ying felt the pressure.

If she were to say now that her chances of winning first prize were slim, Comrade Chen Ru would be able to severely injure her with her eyes.

I don’t know what Chen Ru and Wen Dongrong talked about that night, but when Chen Ru returned home the next day, she brought back a bunch of composition books for Wen Ying.

"Selected New Concept Compositions", "First Prize in the New Concept Composition Competition", "Detailed Explanation of New Concept"... This is to allow Wen Ying to cram and study the style of the New Concept Composition Competition before the rematch!

Wen Ying took the opportunity to make a request, "Actually, when it comes to writing, memorizing model essays is useless. Being influenced by others is actually bad. It's more about daily accumulation. Extracurricular books are still useful."

Insufficient reading will affect more than just Chinese grades.

If people want to improve themselves, how can they not read books?

However, for a long time, apart from textbooks and teaching aids, all other books were classified as "leisure books" by Chen Ru.

Chen Ru obviously misunderstood, thinking that the extracurricular books Wen Ying mentioned were just novels. Thinking that Wen Ying would soon go to the Magic City for a competition, Chen Ru didn't want to conflict with Wen Ying over this matter, so she said vaguely:

"Wait until you finish the competition!"

Wen Ying thought about it carefully. What her mother meant was that she would only be qualified to read "leisure books" if she won the first prize?

Although whether Chen Ru objects or not does not affect Wen Ying's reading of extracurricular books, Wen Ying is still a little excited at the thought of being able to openly display novels in her room one day.

Well, if she really wins the first prize, her hobby of writing seems to be able to be put on the table.

"Then wait until the competition is over. I'm not in a hurry."

Before Wen Ying set off for Shanghai, she heard that Yu Wenhao had been arrested. Qin Xianming closed in, but was met with fierce resistance from Yu Wenhao and his son. Yu Wenhao actually brought people into the Qin family, took Mrs. Qin hostage and confronted the police. After the negotiations failed, Yu Wenhao shot Mrs. Qin.

Wen Ying's hands were shaking when she received the call.

"Is Auntie seriously injured?"
