Chapter 65 The College Entrance Examination: One Exam Determines Your Fate!
With the college entrance exam just around the corner, Lu Ming really couldn't take care of things at home. Fortunately, the two female chairpersons in the mothers' group were willing to help.
The main quest of the academic genius system has actually reached a very crucial stage.
Perhaps once he passes the college entrance examination, he can be considered a true academic star and begin to enter a higher level.
During this period, he really put in all his effort to review, and every day he still adopted the strategy of reviewing three sets of mock exams and doing one set of mock exams.
On Saturday and Sunday, we will review the difficult and incorrect questions selected this week again.
Considering that many new question types appear in the college entrance examination every year, he is relatively conservative in his self-estimation, expecting to get around 720 points.
If you get this score, the probability of becoming the top science student in the province is quite high.
With only a few days left until the college entrance examination, the deadline is fast approaching.
Lu Ming's test center was assigned to No. 14 Middle School, the same school Gao He took the high school entrance exam last time, which is considered a large suburb in Jiangbin New District.
Fortunately, the area nearby is on the edge of Jinpingshan Scenic Area, where there is a three-star hotel.
As Gao He's mother, Xue Meiting had stayed at that hotel during the high school entrance exam period and was quite familiar with the place, so she immediately booked two of the best suites for Lu Ming.
Xue Meiting, a female CEO, is very busy, the two female chairpersons are even busier, and the female principal is also busy.
After discussing it in the group, everyone decided to let Pan Li take care of Lu Ming's college entrance examination. Even when ordering food at the hotel, she had to check the ingredients.
Lu Ming was actually quite touched when he saw what everyone was saying in the group chat.
Of course, the nature of this mom group is that friends take care of their children together and help each other.
We are all divorced and single. We either don't want to find someone or we can't find one. We also all have children to raise and educate.
These past few days, Lu Ming hasn't planned to put too much pressure on himself; he's just been reviewing his collection of incorrect answers in his dorm room.
Miao Yuyan asked in the group chat, "Daming, what are your plans for summer vacation?"
"I'll preview the textbooks for various university courses, prepare for the undergraduate mathematics, modeling, and Qiu competitions, mentor the kids, and play ball every day."
Lu Ming spoke the truth.
"Daming, with you as a role model, I feel like my son can get into Tsinghua or Peking University!" Pan Li couldn't help but tease.
"With the Ming Dynasty as a role model, we really don't need to worry too much about the children's studies!"
Xue Meiting was just telling the truth. Last semester, her son Gao He was not in the top ten of the advanced class, but this semester he has been consistently in the top five.
Tsinghua and Peking University are a sure thing!
At this moment, Miao Yuyan brought up another matter, saying, "Daming, the school has a research summer camp, and the children will continue to stay at the school during the summer vacation. At that time, we may need to trouble you to continue living in the staff dormitory and help take care of the children."
"Yes, Daming, you really have to work hard!" Mei Yanping quickly expressed her gratitude.
"It's all as it should be!"
Lu Ming agreed speechlessly, feeling that these mature women's demands were too low. Didn't they have any higher ideas?
Is it because his image as a top student is too righteous and lofty?
Speaking of top students!
Because he never participated in the high school Olympiad, never won a national first-level award, and never entered the national training team, Lu Ming's claim of being a top high school student is actually a bit embarrassing.
The name doesn't do it justice!
The only way to remedy this is to achieve outstanding results in the college entrance examination!
Go straight to 720 points or higher.
Three days later!
When he actually entered the examination room at No. 14 Middle School, Lu Ming was actually a little nervous, but he and Huang Jiaxuan were destined to meet.
The two were assigned to the same classroom at the same test center.
Six rows apart.
Lu Ming, sitting in the back, could see that Huang Jiaxuan's legs were trembling slightly.
A tall kid who's 1.92 meters!
After the Chinese exam papers were handed out, Lu Ming glanced through them and felt there were no major problems.
The difficulty level isn't very high.
The essay topic was both strange and not strange; it was still about the relationship between technology and humanity. Similar topics have appeared twice in the past five years.
This shows that China has indeed entered a special era. With the continuous progress of technology, more people are forced to move forward, and many have even been eliminated.
Over the next twenty years, these will be the most critical issues for human society, generating numerous interconnected problems.
What should be done about the large number of unemployed people?
With increasing employment pressure, marriage and divorce rates are all problems.
To be honest, even the central government probably doesn't know how many people China will need in the future.
If it were determined that China needed to maintain its current population size, it would have already fully implemented population fertility stimulus policies, instead of proceeding cautiously in small steps as it is now.
This is a kind of confusion that comes from both the bottom up and the top down.
Lu Ming first completed all the previous questions and checked them before starting to write the essay.
Time is limited, so we need to quickly decide on a theme!
His view is simple: technology is like water; it can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it, and humanity is the boat.
While humans utilize water, they also face the dangers it poses.
Therefore, since ancient times, the Chinese have established a vast engineering management system, which eventually formed the China we know today.
Ultimately, only superpowers can do their utmost to mitigate the harm that technology poses to humanity and maximize its benefits.
This is a basic viewpoint and idea, but to get a high score, you still need to cite relevant classical texts.
After drafting, keep the word count under 900 words, then copy it out again.
In fact, with an additional 15% boost to his intelligence and memory, Lu Ming felt that he was truly excellent in both arts and sciences, and his writing flowed like a divine inspiration.
Just mentally prepare a draft.
It's the college entrance exam after all.
With plenty of time to spare, he first drafted a rough outline.
Even so, there are still ten minutes to review the paper again and make minor corrections to a few answers.
It's impossible to get a perfect score in Chinese, but getting 140 points is certainly not impossible.
There are also top students in the humanities.
After Lu Ming came out of the examination room, Huang Jiaxuan hurriedly followed behind and asked, "Teacher Lu, you did very well on the exam, didn't you?"
This child is very honest.
Among the boys in the top class who usually got along very well, he was the only one who had never called his father-in-law "father-in-law".
"It's alright. Once the exam is over, don't worry about it anymore. Just focus on the next one!" Lu Ming had taken the college entrance exam before.
Although it was twenty years ago.
"Yes, I'll listen to whatever Professor Lu says!" Huang Jiaxuan nodded and added, "Professor Lu, I also want to apply for the AI Strong Foundation Program at Jiangsu University of Science and Technology."
In the top class, the students who rank at the top are basically going to Tsinghua and Peking Universities, including top students like Hu Jinyu, Yang Chaoxu, and Lu Wenting, who scored 700 points in both the first and second mock exams.
Huang Jiaxuan is not good enough.
He was probably at a similar level to Cheng Yuhang, scoring over 680 points in the second mock exam.
The top-performing class at Huarui Middle School is considered to be in the upper-middle range. With a bit of luck, they can get into Tsinghua or Peking University, but applying to Jiangsu University of Science and Technology's Strong Foundation Program is a more secure option.
"So, are you choosing information technology or data analytics?"
Lu Ming had already stated his aspirations within the Rocket Class, which was definitely to apply for the AI Strong Foundation Program at Jiangsu University of Science and Technology.
However, Jiangsu University of Science and Technology's AI-focused program has two majors: the traditional Information Computing and Applications, and the new Data Computing and Science.
Simply put, the former leans towards mathematics, while the latter leans towards modeling.
"I'm not entirely sure either, but I think following Professor Lu's advice on choosing a major should be a good idea!" Huang Jiaxuan hadn't studied this in detail yet.
This child is quite special.
His father was a physical education teacher at the Experimental Primary School, and his mother was Shen Cuiling, the one who was supposed to punish Lu Ming with a drink. She was quite good-looking and ran a hair salon.
The parents were both ordinary, but their child was exceptionally outstanding.
Lu Ming guessed that Huang Jiaxuan's parents wouldn't understand the difference between the two AI elite classes, and was about to explain it in detail when a girl behind him suddenly shouted, "Teacher Lu!"
This startled Lu Ming and Huang Jiaxuan.
Chen Yiyan was also assigned to the Jiangbin branch of No. 4 Middle School as an examination site. When she saw Lu Ming on the way, she immediately ran over.
After glancing at the young girl, Lu Ming continued to speak to Huang Jiaxuan: "Any student who can get into the Strong Foundation Program at Jiangsu University of Science and Technology can complete both Information and Computing and Data Science majors at the same time. The only difference is that Information and Computing focuses more on mathematical theory, and there is more room for postgraduate and doctoral studies."
Chen Yiyan immediately agreed, saying, "My mom inquired carefully at Jiangnan University, and if I'm pursuing a master's or doctoral degree in AI, information and computer science is a more secure option. Data computing and applications seem fashionable and are in high demand by big companies, but when it comes to graduate school applications, neither is a good fit!"
Being "neither fish nor fowl" means having insufficient computer science knowledge and insufficient mathematical knowledge.
Of course, this applies to Jiangnan University, a 211 university.
Jiangsu University of Science and Technology, a 985 university, is different; its students are more capable and can generally master two majors on their own.
This is why large companies will hire graduates from 985 universities if they can.
The most impressive thing is not the school, nor the teachers, but the students themselves!
The so-called discrimination based on first degree is actually discrimination based on college entrance examination scores. How many points a student can score depends entirely on their intelligence, memory, and self-discipline!
Therefore, one exam determines your entire life!
