There are a total of 33 people from the two villages who took the college entrance examination this year, including 16 educated youth, 18 who reached the undergraduate line, 6 who reached the junior college line, and nine who did not make it. There is nothing that can be done about it. The admission rate in the first year after the resumption of the college entrance examination was only a few percentage points. It is already very impressive that so many people from the two villages were admitted.
At the brigade headquarters, people from the two villages who took the college entrance examination sat here. After spending so much time together, they had a very deep bond. Looking at the few people who didn't pass, those who did were not that happy either.
Shen Anning looked at everyone and said, "Okay, comrades, don't be discouraged if you didn't pass the exam. This is only the first year, and there are only a few months left until the college entrance examination in 1977 or 1988. You can definitely try again. And according to reliable information, this is a national unified exam, and there are corresponding reference materials. After we return to the city, we will find a way to send the materials back to everyone."
After hearing what Shen Anning said, several people who were originally a little depressed cheered up again. Yes, there are only a few months left. They have the foundation of last year's review, so they will always be better than others, right? There are so many prospective college students who will help them, and hope is rekindled.
In early February, the admission notices for candidates from Northeast China finally came out. Shanghai sisters Wang Xinrong and Wang Xinhua were admitted to an industrial technology college in Shanghai. In fact, based on their grades, they would have had a great chance of going to undergraduate colleges if they applied to other places. However, after being away from home for many years, the two sisters wanted to return to a place closer to home.
One after another, everyone's admission letters arrived. Several people who had attended high school in Gengjiatun were admitted. Although only two of them took the undergraduate exam and the rest were admitted to local colleges, such results were already worth celebrating for the people from the two villages.
Relying on her own foundation and the information provided by Shen Anning, Geng Yue and her husband successfully got into Beijing Normal University. Another person who went to university was the nephew of the head of the Geng family, who was admitted to Northeast Polytechnic University.
There are also several people from Wangtu Village who have been admitted to local universities and colleges. The spirits of the village heads of the two villages when they go to the commune meetings are different.
This time, Wangtu Village and Gengjiatun were exposed to the whole county. The most surprising thing was Shen Anning, who majored in basic medicine at Peking University Medical School. The weight of this notice could be seen from the first four words. Xu Hongxia was admitted to Renmin University of China, which was one block away from Peking University. She was very happy. Because of this, she and Liu Jiaman became alumni. Both of them were lively and lively. When they applied for admission, they discussed going to Beijing together. It would be better if they could be closer to Shen Anning. And they got their wish!
There were more than a dozen people in the entire Northeast who were admitted to the two top universities in the country. Shen Anning was not the top scorer, and her major was not that popular, so the county and town only gave her a reward and held a commendation meeting. However, the front page of the reporter's interview was given to another boy majoring in heavy industry. Shen Anning was very satisfied with this, and she did not want to be too high-profile.
Those who received the admission letters were not in a hurry to leave. They still had to go through relevant procedures here, and the village also had to calculate their work points. They would have to take the money and grain away eventually. In addition, the weather was cold and there was thick snow on the road, making it inconvenient to travel. It would be better to spend some time with friends so that they could know where everyone would go in the future and facilitate contact.
Different schools send out admission letters at different times. By the time people from both villages received theirs, nearly half a month had passed.
