My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s - Chapter 185
Chapter 185: Chapter 187: Did Well in the Exam
Under the same reasoning as every year, they then started to distribute the test results.
First, the general report cards were passed out. After the start of the new year and school reopened, the subject teachers would separately review and discuss the exams.
“This time, fifteen of our class made it within the top hundred in the school. Among them, the second, fifth, and eighth ranks are ours.”
The second place, needless to say, was always dominated by their class’s consistently top-scoring bookworm.
With a wooden expression, the bookworm seemed oblivious to the surroundings. It was unclear whether he was mentally solving maths problems or filling in blanks.
The world of academic champions was genuinely beyond the comprehension of underachievers.
As for the fifth rank in the whole school, that was second in their class. When Tang Yuxin’s name was called out, Tang Yuxin wasn’t surprised because she knew good deeds never go unrewarded.
Look, even her own grades became stable. She thought she could rank in fourth or fifth place this time, but the actual result far exceeded her expectations.
This time I want to specifically commend two students from our class.
Ms. Liu was still smiling, very satisfied, “Before, these two had performed poorly in our class and dragged down the overall ranking. This time, both of their performances improved significantly. They used to rank towards the end, but in this examination, they unexpectedly achieved the eighth and twelfth rank in our class, making it into the top hundred in the whole school.”
Xu Miaomiao was gripping her desk tightly, her fingernails leaving scratches on it. Chen Lidong was the same, even though he didn’t show anything on his face. Only he knew that his hands on his lap were clenched tightly, sweating profusely.
Is this about them? Are they talking about them? Are these improved students them? Or are they talking about someone else?
While Ms. Liu was still wearing her contented smile, her gaze finally landed on Xu Miaomiao. Xu Miaomiao trembled slightly, her heart filled with nervousness. She was almost screaming out in surprise. Was it her? Was it really her?
Clearing her throat, Ms. Liu continued, “This time, the students who have made the most progress in our class are Xu Miaomiao and Chen Lidong. Xu Miaomiao ranked eighth in our class, while Chen Lidong got the twelfth position. Both of them made it into the top hundred in their grade.”
There are ten classes in total across the junior high school. If we rank it this way, even the fifteenth place in our class is within the top hundred. This shows that the overall strength of our class is higher than others. Those within the top ten take up three spots, and within the top hundred, we have fifteen. If they perform better in their high school entrance exam next year, then their ranking will improve even more. Maybe she could get transferred to a better school, preferably one closer to home so she could spend more time with her parents every day.
Xu Miaomiao, sitting below, had her eyes welling up with tears. Oh my God, she ranked seventh in the class, and made it into the top hundred for the entire grade level. The last time she had the lowest score, and this time she achieved such excellent results.
Chen Lidong also took some time to register the news. He knew he should have done well–he solved the problems himself and he had a rough idea of how many he answered correctly or incorrectly. But he didn’t expect to rank twelfth. And Xu Miaomiao ranked even higher, in eighth place, which was better than his score. However, he was very satisfied. Now he can proudly go home. He can afford a pair of ice skates this year. And then he’ll teach Sisi how to skate.
He was feeling very pleased within as he was daydreaming when someone pushed him from behind.
“It’s your turn now. Go get your report card,” The classmate behind him nudged Li Lidong again, who was grinning like a fool. Li Lidong quickly snapped out of it and hurried to get his report card.
And Ms. Liu smiled at him warmly. It was a given that a good student would come first–there was no suspense there. However, for someone who usually came last to achieve such excellent results was more rewarding and challenging. So, naturally, it was much more satisfying.
“Keep working hard next semester,” Ms. Liu cheerfully encouraged Li Lidong, which deeply moved him.
“Thank you, teacher,” he said as he took his report card, clenching it tightly in his hand before heading back to his seat. He then took it out again and carefully went through every line.
Heehee, his highest score was in maths, a full 112. No wonder Tang Yuxin once said that his logical thinking ability was very good, better than hers and Xu Miaomiao’s. That’s why he always solved problems faster than Xu Miaomiao, so getting such a high score wasn’t a surprise.
The other scores were quite average because Tang Yuxin’s scores were not biased. So the tutoring she gave couldn’t be too biased either. His worst score was in English, where he only scored in the seventies. He suspected that his total score might have been dragged down by his low English score; that was the only explanation for why Xu Miaomiao, who studied with him side by side, scored higher and had a four-rank lead.
But it was a relief. Although he ranked twelfth, he made it into the top hundred among all the students. The school had an unwritten rule that the top hundred students were the cream of the crop, and they had a high chance of entering high school.
Thinking of his excellent results, if he tried a bit harder next year, he should be able to reach the top ten in the class. He almost wanted to rush home and hit the books right away, aiming for better results next year.
Tang Yuxin’s ranking was fantastic this time. Though she might not be an academic champion, she was a tireless worker. This hardworking bird had finally flown to the front.
She ranked right behind the academic champions, at fifth in the whole school, earning a certificate of honor and a stationery case.
Once school was dismissed, Xu Miaomiao and Chen Lidong joyfully went home. They wouldn’t study at Tang Yuxin’s house today. They had an important task–to go home and share the good news.
They had achieved such good results, so they had to show off a bit.
“What?” Mr. Xu jumped up in surprise.
