Yuan Mengge's changes naturally attracted the attention of the teachers in class.
However, they didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that Yuan Mengge's enthusiasm seemed to be just a whim and would probably disappear in a few days.
As a result, after observing for half a month, Yuan Mengge's enthusiasm for learning not only did not disappear, but seemed to be getting stronger.
Seeing her homework accuracy rate steadily increase, several teachers suddenly felt a surge of hope.
"Old He... what's going on with Yuan Pingping? If she continues like this, she might actually have a chance to get into high school. Her grades are now no worse than those in Class One." The English teacher said to He Qingfeng.
"Yes, I thought her enthusiasm would gradually wane in the first few days of school, but I didn't expect her to keep it up until now," said the physics and chemistry teacher.
Because there aren't many teachers available, teachers here usually teach several subjects at the same time.
For example, a politics teacher can also teach history, a physics teacher can also teach chemistry, a math teacher can also teach art, and a Chinese teacher can also teach English...
He Qingfeng seemed to be deep in thought, and said, "I always feel that she is strange... She has changed too much, and she is not a person at all like before."
The other teachers paused for a moment after hearing his words, then agreed, "That's true."
"Yes, I noticed it too. But I think the change in her is quite good; she's become more interested in learning."
"And she stopped hanging out with Shen Jiayi and the other two. I really hope she can stay like this until the high school entrance exam."
After the exam, the teachers immediately found Yuan Mengge's paper and began grading it.
After the changes were made, they all showed expressions of satisfaction.
"I knew it! Her grades have indeed improved a bit," the math teacher said.
"Let me see... Hmm, although it's only in the sixties, it's much better than the twenty or thirty points last semester. What was your score?" The chemistry teacher leaned over and asked the math teacher.
Math teacher: "58 points."
The two looked at He Qingfeng, who was correcting Yuan Mengge's English, and said, "Her English has improved a lot... 72 points!"
In those days, the total score for junior high school was 600 points, and each of the six subjects had a perfect score of 100.
Compared to Yuan Pingping's previous average score of around 30 or 40, her score has indeed improved.
"Oh! Her English improved so much? That's great! Let's take a look at her other subjects, what was her score in Chinese?" The other two teachers suddenly looked at He Qingfeng with some anticipation.
He Qingfeng turned around and searched through the Chinese language test papers on the other side, then pulled out a paper: "...Found it."
The other two teachers then took out Yuan Mengge's physics and politics papers and began to grade them.
He Qingfeng quickly finished grading Yuan Mengge's Chinese test paper. 50 points, just as if it had been calculated, no more, no less.
Then the other two teachers also gave the scores for physics and politics, and then the three of them added the scores together.
"Physics 35? Politics 48... English 72, Chinese 50, Chemistry 64, Math 58... 327! Not bad! Over 300 points, more than 80 points higher than last semester. She should be able to get into a good vocational school now." The two teachers added up her scores, and indeed, she had scored significantly higher than last semester.
"She's a little unbalanced in her subjects, but that's okay. Her English has improved so much; it would be great if she could get a perfect score. And her Chinese, chemistry, and math have all improved quite a bit. If she continues to improve at this rate, there are still three months left, so there's still plenty of time."
The cutoff score for Min Gao High School is over 400 points, while the cutoff scores for the county's No. 1 and No. 2 High Schools are a bit higher.
"And she herself said she wanted to go to high school. I thought she was joking before, but it seems she really intends to take the high school entrance exam." He Qingfeng pondered as he looked at Yuan Mengge's scores.
"Should we talk to her and encourage her? Maybe that will boost her confidence," another teacher suggested to him.
He Qingfeng nodded: "Okay, I'll talk to her."
After the exam, Yuan Mengge estimated her score and had a pretty good idea of what her total score would be.
However, she was still somewhat looking forward to the final results when the test papers were handed out.
She might not be number one in the class, but she should be in the top five without any problem.
If Yuan Pingping hadn't had a criminal record, I wouldn't have asked so many questions in class so frequently, trying to establish myself as a studious person in front of the teacher.
When the test papers were handed out, He Qingfeng praised her directly in class: "Look at Yuan Pingping, she suddenly realized something and her attitude towards learning is so positive, and look at the results! She went from being at the bottom of the class to third place in the whole class."
Upon hearing He Qingfeng's words, everyone turned to look at Yuan Mengge. Someone jeered, "Teacher, are you sure she did these questions herself? Your test answers weren't stolen, were they?"
"Hahaha~~" The others immediately joined in the laughter.
Yuan Mengge remained calm and did not take their words to heart.
Anyway, none of this will have any impact on her.
He Qingfeng said, "Are you all blind? Didn't you see how many questions she asked in class? Didn't you see how many problems she wrote on the blackboard? Have you ever seen her answer any questions incorrectly? Do you think you can steal the answers I wrote on the blackboard?"
A moment of silence fell over everyone: "..."
He Qingfeng said to Yuan Mengge, "Yuan Pingping, keep up this enthusiasm and raise your score. You might have a chance to get into Min Gao High School."
Yuan Mengge then said, "Teacher, my goal isn't Min Gao High School, it's Provincial High School."
"Tch~~"
"Whoa~~"
The whole class erupted in commotion, all looking down on her as their goal.
Shen Jiayi, standing nearby, sneered, "Daydreaming, huh?"
He Qingfeng didn't discourage her, saying, "Alright, set a high goal. Even if you don't reach it in the end, it won't be too bad. What are you all complaining about? You don't even have a goal, how dare you laugh at her?"
Yuan Mengge tilted her head and said to He Qingfeng, "Teacher, I will get a perfect score of 400 in the high school entrance exam. Just you wait."
He Qingfeng gave her a deep look and said, "Alright, then I'll wait and see. If you can do it, I can give you a reward."
Yuan Mengge asked curiously, "What reward?"
He Qingfeng: "You'll find out when the time comes; for now, it's a secret."
The others immediately chimed in, "Teacher, if we also improve, will we get a reward too?"
He Qingfeng glanced at the student who had spoken and raised an eyebrow: "Then you should do well on the exam first."
And so, the diagnostic monthly exam came to an end.
Yuan Mengge's grades improved significantly, and the atmosphere in the dormitory became much more peaceful.
