Chapter 417
Hu Xiaodie said uncomfortably, "What a pity... But just now our homeroom teacher said that all roads lead to Rome. That's quite true, isn't it?"
Lin Guodong and Meng Jiajia both nodded, as if they wanted to make themselves feel better by agreeing with this point of view.
Only Su Miao whispered, "All roads lead to Rome... but airplanes are always faster than carriages."
The sound was not loud, but it was like a stone thrown into a lifeless lake, making the already heavy mood of the few people even more uncomfortable.
Meng Jiajia bit her lips lightly, thought for a moment and said:
"Actually, Lin Wang just underperformed this time, not because he lacks the ability. If he can repeat a year, his chances of getting into university will be much higher than a freshman, right?"
Hu Xiaodie suddenly thought of something and said:
"Lin Wang is mainly facing financial problems right now. What if we donate money to him? Actually, the tuition is not that expensive. I can donate all the money I save for getting my hair curled so that he can repeat his studies."
Su Miao shook his head. "It's not that simple. Besides tuition, there are also miscellaneous fees. Their family is short of more than just the ten or twenty yuan in tuition. There's also his grandmother's medical expenses and his younger siblings' living expenses."
As the eldest son in the family, he needs to go out to work to supplement the family income. It is useless to just help him pay for his tuition, and he may not accept it. "
Lin Guodong understood Su Miao's meaning and said:
"You're the smartest among us, and your family has a lot of business connections. Can you think of a way for Lin Wang to earn enough money while repeating his studies?"
"Let me think about it."
Su Miao did not agree immediately. Some things still needed to be thought about before doing.
The students who passed the preliminary selection then entered into a period of intensive and frantic review.
Some preparatory work before the college entrance examination, such as college entrance examination registration, file creation, physical examination, and filling out application forms, are all carried out more than a month before the college entrance examination.
Now, candidates need to estimate their scores before choosing their majors. This also increases the difficulty and uncertainty of filling out the application form.
Su Miao sat at the desk, the pen in his hand gently sliding across the application form, and filled in the college entrance examination application according to his own ideas.
My first choice was the Archaeology major at University A, and my second choice was the History (World History) major at University A.
After looking at it, the homeroom teacher said, "Are you only focused on University A? Are you not considering other schools? Actually, you are such a good science student. University B has many majors that are suitable for you."
"I've been considering it for two years and I feel that these two majors are what I'm most interested in. And these two majors at University A are the best in the country."
Su Miao raised his head, looked at the head teacher with firm eyes, and said seriously.
"Su Miao, it's a good thing to be firm in your choices, but you don't have to be rigid. Give your life more possibilities."
After hearing this, Su Miao lowered his head and thought for a moment, and finally filled in the Computer Science and Technology major of University B as his third choice.
Compared to Su Miao who was very confident, others had a much harder time filling out their applications.
It is really difficult to estimate your scores, especially before the exam, so you can only estimate based on your usual scores.
However, the scores at that time will always be different due to the difficulty of the questions and the on-the-spot performance.
In many cases, schools will give priority to the first choice, so in previous years there have been cases where the first choice was not admitted, and the second choice score reached or even exceeded the admission line but was still not admitted.
There are also many cases where students can be classmates even though their college entrance examination scores differ by one or two hundred points.
There is a popular saying now, "Filling out an application form is like betting on your future." Being too radical can lead to big risks, while being too conservative can easily lead to negative results. Many students are hesitant and dare not put pen to paper.
Su Miao peeked at Hu Xiaodie's application form. Her first choice was a technical college, and she had not yet decided on her second choice.
She asked softly, "Xiaodie, didn't you say you had discussed this with your family before?"
"Yes, but now I'm hesitant again. Look, I only passed the preliminary exam by ten points, and the college entrance exam...
Especially when I saw Lin Wang was not selected, I was really scared. I am becoming less and less confident. Do you think I should just choose a technical secondary school as my second choice?
At least there is security, and there is no tuition fee and guaranteed job placement in the future."
Hu Xiaodie's eyes were full of confusion and worry, and the hand holding the pen unconsciously pressed the pen cap.
Su Miao did not give her any advice on filling out her application form, but instead took out a notebook from the drawer and handed it to her.
"There's still more than a month left before the exam. I think it shouldn't be a problem to raise your score by a few dozen points based on your foundation.
Especially math. You do so well in other subjects, but you are always dragged down by the 40 points in math. It's such a pity.
This notebook contains some math problems I made up my mind about. Although the data will definitely be different, the problem-solving method should be similar. Take a look and give it a try."
Su Miao's voice was soft, but it seemed to give Hu Xiaodie a shot of adrenaline.
The first-place prediction book in the grade was so valuable that Hu Xiaodie's hand trembled slightly as she stretched out her hand to take it.
She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so she said softly:
"Su Miao! You are truly my benefactor. I just read it secretly during class and will return it to you immediately after reading it."
"Well, don't worry, your key point is to master the problem-solving methods.
Now that time is running out, don’t waste time thinking about why the solution is this way. All you have to do is remember the steps of solving the problem firmly in your mind.
"Memorize the question types and corresponding solutions. Don't waste time on extraneous solutions. Just memorize them thoroughly. If you don't understand, ask me." Su Miao warned seriously.
In the following self-study class, Hu Xiaodie held the notebook like a Bible and read it hard.
Because her foundation was too poor, there were many things she really couldn't understand, and she was embarrassed to disturb Su Miao.
However, when Su Miao was about to leave get out of class, he came over and pointed at one of the questions and asked, "Have you looked at this question?"
“Look…I saw it.”
"Okay, now cover your answer and write down the steps for solving the problem on your draft."
“…Okay…” Hu Xiaodie agreed reluctantly.
Hu Xiaodie was halfway through writing when she said with an embarrassed look on her face, "This is all I know. This seems to be one of those big questions that's beyond my ability. I usually leave it blank."
"If you want to make a breakthrough in the last month, you have to do things beyond your current capabilities.
Looking back at the knowledge you have already mastered is called consolidating your existing scores. Don’t you want to get a higher score?
"If you can get a good score on a big question like this, you'll instantly gain more than ten points. Isn't that more immediate than memorizing a few more classical Chinese texts?"
"Su Miao! Please teach me! I want to improve! I want to improve so much!"
Hu Xiaodie's heart was filled with anxiety and desire. She even felt that Su Miao was the only person who could help her improve her grades in a short period of time.
