The director of admissions thought he could accept it if Si Fuqing scored full marks on an ordinary difficulty test.
But who could have anticipated a difficulty index of 0.5?
He felt it was time to reassess Si Fuqing.
This person is an âacademic dropoutâ?
She is clearly a prodigy among geniuses!
Just last month, the experimental classâs mock exam had a difficulty index of 0.5. He remembered the top scorer in mathematics scored 138 points, already designated by the teaching research group as a candidate for the international joint exam.
Yet, Si Fuqing scored full marks, and her speed was even more impressive.
The difference between full marks and 138 points might appear small, just 12 points, but it was significantly more challenging than bridging the gap between zero and the passing score.
The director had a premonition.
Next yearâs international joint exam might very well astonish the entire Great Xia.
Teacher Ai, looking over the graded papers, could only feel disbelief, âHow is this possibleâ¦â
Si Fuqing had dropped out early.
For the average high school student, scoring thirty-four points on a test with a difficulty index of 0.5 would be considered good. How did she achieve full marks?
After reading, Teacher Ai looked up sharplv, âDirector, to admit her, did vou
give her the answers?â
Northern State No. 1 Middle School was known for its emphasis on science, with mathematics and physics recognized as particularly challenging.
It had been years since anyone scored full marks.
Hearing this, even the director was stunned, âWhat are you thinking?â
âDirector, this isnât an ordinary paper, this isââ Teacher Ai was interrupted by a snicker, âTsk.â
Zhu Ruowanâs hand slapped onto the desk with a smack, startling Teacher Ai.
âLook at this final problem in mathematics, do you know how she solved it?â Zhu Ruowan said coldly, âAccording to the reference solution, it would take at least twenty-four steps, but she reduced it to seven steps using complex functions.â
âNot only is she strong in her learning abilities, but her innovative thinking is also remarkable. Iâll tell you, many in university know about complex functions, but practically none would think to apply them this way.â The director, a science student himself, found his head aching.
He regretted not retaining his knowledge of physics and mathematics.
Zhu Ruowan, arms crossed, continued: âThis paper set is new, right? Thereâs no answer key online, and the reference solutions are far inferior to her method. So, tell me, where could she have copied from?â
Zhu Ruowan, as a PhD supervisor, had a profound academic achievement.
Teacher Ai was left speechless and flustered, her face burning with embarrassment.
She opened her mouth but couldnât say anything.
âWhat, donât understand?â Zhu Ruowan picked up the papers again and sneered, âIf you donât understand, then donât bother looking. You donât understand anyway, donât waste my time, just go.â
The director felt a headache coming on, but that was just Zhu Ruowanâs personality.
You could question anything but her academic.
He turned to Teacher Ai, still a bit dazed, and reminded, âTeacher Ai, do you have any more questions?â
âNo,â Teacher Ai came back to her senses, her face still hot, âDirector, Iâm going to patrol the grade 11 classes.â
She left hastily, not daring to slow down.
The director apologized to Zhu Ruowan, âTeacher Zhu, Iâm really sorry, sheâs stuck in her old ways, especially with the fuss about Student Siâs dropout drama. â
âLetâs not talk about that. Are you saying you couldnât persuade such a talent to leave the entertainment industry?â Zhu Ruowan lamented, âIn no more than five years, no, in just two, I will ensure she has a place at the International Institute for Scientific Information!â
Seeing Zhu Ruowanâs somewhat manic determination, the director wiped his sweat, âEr, Wicked⦠No, Teacher Zhu, the young lady loves acting. Iâve seen several corporations wanting to recruit her as a sales director and failing. Leaving the industry is definitely not on her agenda.â
âSo sheâs still in the city of Sijiu?â Zhu Ruowan stood up immediately, âThen Iâm going back now to see if I can persuade her. After all, I still have one PhD student slot available.â
The director was puzzled.
Is this not poaching?!
Before the director could respond, Zhu Ruowan had already quickly packed her things and left in a hurry.
The director shakily took out his phone and dialed Si Fuqingâs number: âHello, Student Si, we have a teacher coming to see you. Sheâs a professor, but, well, sheâs a bit, you know. Please, make sure youâre prepared.â
âA bit, you know?â Si Fuqing was surprised, âWhatâs she coming for?â
