The Academy will release the results on the first day of September every year and announce the rankings of all candidates. Some of the top-ranked students can enter the Academy for re-examination.
There is no fixed proportion or fixed number of quotas each year. They are only determined by the Academy. Sometimes there are more than a thousand, sometimes there are only a few hundred. At the least, there are less than 300 people shortlisted for the re-examination in one year.
But there is a rule that can be followed, that is, if there is no one with a B-level or above evaluation in the whole department, he will definitely not be selected for the re-examination.
For example, between two people, one has a D grade in all subjects, but only has a B grade in scriptures; the other has a C grade in all subjects. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to say which of the two is better, but it is certain that the latter will definitely not be selected for the re-examination, and the former will not be selected for the re-examination. There is a chance, this is related to the academy’s selection criteria.
The examination criteria in the previous life tended to be sorted by total scores, which was not friendly to students with partial subjects. Balanced development was more conducive to getting into the school of their choice.
The Academy prefers merit-based ranking. Candidates with more outstanding points are ranked higher. Even the exams are based on this standard. All subjects are very difficult. There is no certain number of years of hard study or hard practice. It is difficult to achieve good results in more than one subject, and it is not intended that candidates should take care of both.
After a burst of noise, the chief invigilator appeared again. He took one step out of the academy and arrived directly above the east gate. With a wave of his hand, he threw out dozens of large-character poster-like papers. They were obviously the candidates for this exam. The list lists the rankings, names and scores of all candidates.
The list was floating quietly next to the person. The font was large enough for candidates standing within three feet to see clearly. As for the list beyond three feet, it depends on their own eyesight.
"quiet!"
As soon as the list came out, when the noise should have been overwhelming, the chief invigilator only said one word, and the huge square suddenly fell silent like magic. Everyone involuntarily obeyed the order, stopped moving and talking. , casting his gaze on him, he could hear the needle drop for a moment.
This person spoke slowly, just like the first time. The voice was not loud, but it could be clearly heard by everyone present, even though there were tens of thousands of onlookers present.
"A total of 6,843 candidates participated in the preliminary examination of the Academy. Among them, the first 1,056 candidates were allowed to enter the Academy for the re-examination, and another 22 were admitted to the Academy's outer hospital."
"Next, the invigilator will sing the first chapter, and the candidates whose names have been read will enter the academy through this passage for the re-examination."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and the candidate who was originally standing in the rightmost area of the east gate was pushed to both sides by a gentle invisible force, leaving a passage for two people to walk side by side.
After the words fell, the figure of the main invigilator disappeared in an instant. Everyone present felt relieved. They slowly broke away from the state of silence and gradually began to talk. The voices grew from quiet to loud, and the candidates in the front row made all kinds of calls. All.
Several invigilators in black robes appeared in front of the list and began to sing. The voices were not very loud, but they could suppress all the noisy sounds and clearly convey the rankings to the ears of those present.
"No. 1,056, Chai Dayong from Zhanzhou, Ding for Sutras, Ding for Policy Questioning, B for Archery, B for Soldiers..."
It is not difficult to judge from this person's results that he is a candidate who came from the military. Zhanzhou is located in the southeast coastal area and is guarded by the Skynet Army. Chai Dayong is from the Skynet Army.
As the proctor finished speaking, a burst of cheers suddenly erupted from the area in front of him. The man who smiled most proudly among them was Chai Dayong himself, surrounded by his brothers.
Candidates who happen to step over the line and enter the re-examination are usually so excited that they can hardly contain themselves, and the onlookers will smile kindly when they see this scene.
The proctor's singing will not be interrupted because of them, and will still sound at a fast and clear speed.
"One thousand and fifty-five,..."
Every time he reads a person's name, someone will either cheer or respond calmly. This is an annual tradition. It not only tells the invigilator that the candidate is present and can take the retest, but also allows potential classmates present. Get to know yourself and share your joy with others.
After all, there are only a few candidates in the front row who can see the rankings. More people need to listen to the proctor to know their rankings. Although those few candidates can see the rankings, they also tacitly remain silent at this time. Trying to announce the name of the candidate before the invigilator to snatch that joy.
For most of the selected candidates, there must be joy, because as long as they enter the Academy for the re-examination, regardless of whether they can pass the exam and enter the inner courtyard, they at least have the qualifications to be admitted to the outer courtyard.
Enrolling in the Outer Palace for further studies will be of some help whether you join the official career or the military after graduation. Only the direct descendants of some big families will not care about the quota in the Outer Academy and only focus on the Inner Academy.
Therefore, the audience was filled with singing and cheering. The winners had smiles on their faces, showing off their excitement. Those whose names had not yet been read out were more nervous, and most of them had no intention of talking.
Of course there are exceptions, such as Lou Runfa who was chattering non-stop: "Don't worry, I have just reached the 700th place. It's still early for me. I am also a second-class student in Tianyang City. I must be in the top 100 at least. I don't know. Top ten, don’t be impatient…”
He kept wiping the sweat from his palms with the corner of his clothes, while muttering don't worry. He didn't know who he was talking to, but Wei Feng was not in a hurry anyway.
After all, he was a regular visitor to the store. Seeing how nervous he looked, Wei Feng stopped teasing him and just chatted quietly with Fang Baiqing.
Fang Baiqing: "The seven hundred and nineteen people I just mentioned are from the Shi family in Hue. The Shi family has gradually declined over the years, and the family has been in decline. This year, he is the only one in the Shi family to refer to, and the ranking is still so low."
Wei Feng: "Brother Fang seems to be very familiar with all the major families."
Wei Feng did not reject Fang Baiqing, who took the initiative to befriend him, nor did he try to guess his intentions. At least he did not show any malice so far. Wei Feng regarded him as an acquaintance and only listened to the information he shared about the family. Ears, just keep it in mind, and respond with a word from time to time.
Fang Baiqing smiled and said: "That's natural, that's what our Fang family does."
He didn't elaborate on what the Fang family did, and Wei Feng didn't ask in detail.
He just said casually: "Brother Fang, what candidates do you think are worth paying attention to during the same period?"
Fang Baiqing recounted many family treasures: "On the side of the aristocratic family, Du Zhongping of the Du family, Qiu Yunshui of the enemy family, Bai Yixun of the Bai family... On the side of the imperial examination candidates, Pei Hansheng of Qingzhou, Zhanzhou... On the side of the Ministry of War, Yao Dayong of the Tianlei Army, and Chi Duan of the Earth Tiger Army …”
He reported dozens of names in one breath, which was smoother than endorsement, and Wei Feng couldn't help but look at him carefully again.
