Chapter 176: Entrance Examination
The final result of this matter was that Yun Lian did not manage to get what she wanted through the old lady’s hands. In the end, she did not move into a new house in the county town, while Yun Qiao did. At the same time, it was convenient for Yun Qiao to go and help Jing Yu. Yun Xi considered this matter as killing two birds with one stone.
Time pa.s.sed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was time for everyone to start school.
There was an entrance exam at the beginning of high school. Everyone would be arranged to their cla.s.ses based on their ranking on the exam. Just like how universities were divided into top universities, first-tier universities, and ordinary second or third-tier universities. Students were also divided into top students and ordinary students according to their abilities. Even poorer students could make it to the top.
These top students and ordinary students were a.s.signed to different cla.s.ses. Moreover, there was no compet.i.tion between them, so they would end up helping each other.
This compet.i.tion was balanced, but it was also unfair. The teachers in the top students’ cla.s.ses were definitely the best in teaching, and the teachers in the ordinary cla.s.ses were subpar.

Therefore, before the beginning of the school exams, some students would choose to study beforehand. They would enroll in some high school courses if they could afford it, with the hope of getting good results in the placement exams.
Of course, the Yun Family, who did not know better and were not from wealthy families could only resign themselves to fate.
This time, the entrance test only had three subjects – namely Mathematics, English, and Chinese. Even though high school included subjects like Arts and Sciences, Biology, Physics, Geography, and Politics, these subjects were not included in the scope of the test. Therefore, this was considered fair to most students.
The moment Yun Xi received the exam paper, she let out a laugh.
For someone who had already lived to the age of 30 in her previous life, she would be bullying the others if she was to do the exam paper.
The exam paper that was just handed out was Chinese. After all, she was someone who had taken the civil service exam in her previous life, so it was not difficult for her to answer these logical Chinese questions and even write a large essay. Moreover, for argumentative essays, Yun Xi had acc.u.mulated her experiences over such a long period of time, so she could give many examples.
The second test paper that was handed out was English. Unfortunately, English did not test listening. Otherwise, Yun Xi would have been able to perform even better.
In their previous life, she was already in her thirties before she died. She had to completely master English in order to be able to seize a job opportunity in a certain industry. Therefore, when faced with this high school examination paper, Yun Xi was not afraid at all.
The last subject was Mathematics. Mathematics was Yun Xi’s only shortcoming. However, there were not too many questions that were beyond the syllabus. A portion of them were the knowledge that they had learned in junior high school, so they were all very simple. And those questions that were beyond the syllabus were high school questions. Yet the hardest was still listing numbers backward.
This was an easy pa.s.s, and Yun Xi did not need to worry anymore.
However, It was different for Yun Lian. When she was still in junior high school, she had not studied properly, and she did not expect an exam at the start of senior high school.
She could not answer all the questions in the exam paper, let alone the questions that were beyond the syllabus. The school added these questions in order to separate them into grades three, six, and nine.
Yun Lian’s entire face scrunched up when she saw the paper.
However, Yun Lian still had a little bit of antic.i.p.ation in her heart. She felt that Yun Xi did not have much foundation. When her results came back, she would be about the same as her. When that time came, no matter how bad her results were, if there was someone who could be in the same cla.s.s as her, Liu Fang and Yun Gang would not make things too difficult for her.
However, she was still wrong.
Yun Qiao’s situation was not good, but it was not bad either. When it comes to language, there were indeed a lot of things that he did not understand in English. However, Yun Qiao’s mathematics was particularly good.
In the past, when he was in junior high school, Yun Qiao’s science was better. This time, although there were high school mathematics questions, he still relied on the logic behind his reasoning to do the calculation. He was indeed very capable.
Jing Yu had a business partnership with the Fu De Tang Medical Center because of the pharmacy, so he did not partic.i.p.ate in the placement exam this time.
However, Jing Family’s pharmacy was very profitable. Jing Yu directly bribed the invigilator behind him. Even if he did not partic.i.p.ate in the exam, he could still be a.s.signed to the elite cla.s.s.
The exam papers were marked quickly, and everyone’s results came down one after another. Seeing the results, Yun Lian’s tears flowed down her cheeks. This time, it was really unreconciled tears.
