Chapter 231 Joint Examination
April is the rainy season for Pengcheng.
As expected, it rained heavily on the day of the exam, which was very annoying to watch.
Wang Xiuren drove his daughter to the gate of Xin'an Middle School.
Wang Shan held an umbrella in one hand and a transparent examination tool bag in the other, which contained several pens, erasers, tissues and a student ID card.
As Wang Shan walked into the lobby of the teaching building of Xin'an Middle School, Huang Xinxin and Yan Shen came to greet her when they saw her.
Huang Xinxin reminded Wang Shan: "This is your first time taking the joint entrance exam, don't be nervous."
Wang Shan took Huang Xinxin's hand and nodded, "The same goes for you. We will meet here after the exam and have dinner together then."
Yan Shen: ...
He suddenly felt like a light bulb.
But when they separated to find their own examination rooms, he whispered to Wang Shan: "Come on!"
The joint examination strictly follows the process of the college entrance examination, starting at 9:00 in the morning and ending at 11:30.
Xin'an Middle School provides meals at noon. No matter whether you are from this school or from other schools, you can just go to the cafeteria window to get your meals.
After Wang Shan, Huang Xinxin and Yan Shen met up, they arrived at the cafeteria and saw a long queue.
Fortunately, the cafeteria aunt was quick and efficient, and within a few minutes, it was the three's turn.
The three of them had just finished their meal and found a place to sit down. When they were about to start eating, a surprised voice sounded behind them:
"Student Councillor, are you here to take the exam too?"
Yan Shen smiled and replied, "Yes, come over and see how difficult the questions are."
"Great!" Li Yifei from the same class gave a thumbs up, then waved to the students who were getting lunch in the distance: "Here! The student council is here too! Come on!"
Li Yifei could shout loudly without changing his expression in other schools, but this made Yan Shen helplessly hold his forehead.
Wang Shan and Huang Xinxin looked at each other and smiled secretly.
This classmate Li Yifei is also a genius!
At that time they didn’t know that in a few years there would be a word specifically used to describe this type of people - social cows.
Wang Shan and Huang Xinxin worked in tacit understanding and buried their heads in their meals. After finishing quickly, they took the empty plates to a special area and left.
Yan Shen followed closely behind.
"Let's go to the store here. I want to buy a bottle of water." Wang Shan suggested.
Huang Xinxin took Wang Shan's hand and said, "Let's go! I want to buy some water, too."
After the three of them returned from the canteen holding umbrellas, they found a rest area arranged by Xin'an Middle School to rest. It was not until 2:30 that everyone reminded each other and went to the examination room.
The exam ended at five o'clock in the afternoon, and Wang Shan and other two boarding students took the school-arranged bus back to school.
"How did you do in math?" Huang Xinxin lowered her voice.
Wang Shan replied quietly: "It's just so-so. I think the questions are a bit difficult."
If the college entrance examination was as difficult as this one, she felt that she might need to adjust her mental expectations.
In fact, all her relatives and friends knew that she was aiming for Tsinghua University of Fine Arts, and CAFA and China Academy of Fine Arts were her bottom line.
Huang Xinxin held Wang Shan's hand and said, "I also find it difficult, especially the last of the multiple-choice questions and the fill-in-the-blank question, as well as the second and third questions of the last two big questions."
Yan Shen listened to their discussion and also interjected: "Fortunately, these questions don't account for a large part of the score. As long as you get the basic and intermediate questions right, your score won't be too low."
Wang Shan nodded and decided to consolidate her foundation during this period of time.
Time always passes quickly during exams, and the two-day joint examination was over in the blink of an eye.
Maybe it's because I've been using my brain intensively for two days in a row, and my brain is a little overloaded. After evening self-study, Wang Shan went home, took a shower, and fell asleep on the bed.
Lin Qiu was worried that she might not be feeling well, so he pushed the door open to check on her, and discovered that she was snoring.
He smiled and shook his head, then walked out quietly.
"What's going on? You don't have a fever, right?" Wang Xiuren asked nervously.
"I was so tired from the exams these past two days, I'm sleeping soundly!"
Wang Xiuren was relieved, "It's really not easy to study nowadays!"
"That's right! Your chin has become pointed because of studying so much during this period of time." Lin Qiu felt sorry for his daughter.
"Take some time these two days to go to the suburbs, and find a way to buy a local chicken in the morning and stew it for her to nourish her." Wang Xiuren couldn't help with anything else, so he could only try to find something good for his daughter to eat.
"Okay! Let's see if we can buy two more." Lin Qiu nodded.
Wang Shan slept very comfortably and when she woke up she felt full of strength.
After returning to school, she learned from Huang Xinxin that the results of the joint entrance examination would not be available for a week.
Wang Shan suddenly felt that this week was particularly torturous, as if there was a knife hanging over her head.
The atmosphere in the class also began to become restless. Everyone seemed a little distracted from studying, and the classroom was filled with a buzz of conversation.
The head teacher came over with a stern face, "Did you pass the joint entrance examination? Did you finish the college entrance examination? Or did you receive the admission letter?"
After these three questions were asked, the classroom suddenly fell silent.
Everyone took out their test papers again and worked on the questions quietly.
The head teacher walked around the classroom and then left quietly.
Before I knew it, a week had passed.
This week, I checked the campus recruitment results of three art academies online.
As expected, Gome ranked highest, ranking first in the country, Tsinghua University was slightly behind, ranking third in the country, and CAFA ranked eighth in the country.
Wang Shan is very satisfied with the results.
Not to mention Lin Qiu and his wife and the old couple, they were extremely happy and wanted to set up two tables.
During evening study on the second day after the school recruitment results came out, the head teacher asked Yan Shen to post the joint examination results on the bulletin board at the back of the classroom.
Yan Shen followed orders and posted the report card.
After evening self-study, everyone rushed to the back of the classroom.
Wang Shan didn't go over.
She was a little nervous. It was her first time taking the joint entrance examination and the questions were difficult. She was really not sure.
"When the transcript was posted, I didn't see your grades in each subject clearly, but I got a glimpse of your ranking." Yan Shen suddenly spoke across the podium.
"How many?" Wang Shan swallowed nervously.
"Congratulations on making it into the top 50!" Yan Shen congratulated her with a smile.
"Is this true?" Wang Shan was a little incredulous.
"Really! More real than pearls." Yan Shen nodded with a smile.
Huang Xinxin also happily reported the good news to her: "Shanshan, your grades have improved!"
Seeing her happy expression, Wang Shan knew that she had done well in the exam.
When there were fewer people at the back of the classroom, she walked over to check her grades in each subject.
The progress in this joint examination can be considered a pleasant surprise for her.
When she returned home in the evening, she told her parents her exam results with a smile on her face.
Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren were also very happy when they learned about her progress.
Wang Xiuren even took a long detour to buy a cake to celebrate.
Life is so simple yet fulfilling.
There was a small episode in the middle.
This was Wang Shan’s first time to take the joint entrance examination. After seeing Wang Shan’s results, the head teacher was finally relieved.
Especially after learning about her art exam results and the campus recruitment results of three art academies, I communicated with the subject teachers overnight and asked them to pay special attention to her during this period.
Can you not pay attention?
Now, as long as Wang Shan performs normally in the college entrance examination, she will definitely be admitted to Tsinghua University!
As for the department, it’s actually not that important, as long as you’re from Tsinghua University, it’s fine.
Thinking of this, the smile on his face became even wider.
