23: Chapter 23 Holy crap! He really got accepted?!
Song Xi frowned slightly.
She had never encountered such a thing before.
In the past, thanks to her looks, temperament, and grades, adults praised her endlessly, and her peers adored her.
She had almost never hit a wall, let alone been met with cold shoulders.
Except for Zhao Yang.
His attitude of ignoring her formed a stark contrast to what she was used to.
Why?
Song Xi was very puzzled.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yang had just woken up.
He didn't quite remember when the admission results for Beijing Forestry University would be released.
But it was just a matter of checking again.
Zhao Yang opened the official website of the Gan Province Education Examination Authority and began his query after entering his student ID.
Beijing Forestry University, Biotechnology, Major Code: 071001, Proposed Admission.
Glancing at his admission page, Zhao Yang smiled slightly.
He was actually accepted!
The feeling of being reborn is truly great!
Although Beijing Forestry University wasn't considered an especially good school, it was still a 211, and among all 211s, it was in the upper-middle tier.
It couldn't be considered bad by any means.
Compared to the extremely ordinary tier 1 university he attended in his previous life, it was simply worlds apart!
What was even more crucial was the major.
Biological Sciences.
As it happened, his Biology skills were just average. He barely had some foundation in Biology from high school, but by college, he had basically returned it all to his teachers.
He basically knew nothing about Biology anymore.
At Beijing Forestry University, he could just happen to study Biology.
He should be able to gain experience points by attending classes, right!
Zhao Yang was very satisfied.
At this moment, Zhao Yang suddenly thought of something; those people in his class were still waiting to see him make a fool of himself!
How interesting.
The corners of Zhao Yang's mouth curled up slightly.
Studying wasn't something that had to be done this very second.
He opened the group chat for Class 37 of Senior High.
At this moment, besides those showing off their admitted schools, many people in the group were also talking about Zhao Yang.
"By the way, do you guys think Zhao Yang can get into a 211?"
"You're overthinking it! Even a bottom-tier 211 isn't that easy to get into, unless he chooses to go to the frontier.
But even for a 211 in the frontier, the cutoff scores in previous years haven't been low! He only scored 534 points.
Although the cutoff score is lower this year, he only scored less than 30 points above the tier 1 university line; it's still very unlikely!"
"Indeed! I think Zhao Yang is just bragging, or rather, he's trying to find an excuse for himself to repeat a year!"
"Exactly! But Zhao Yang's grades are actually quite impressive. If he repeats a year, next year, let alone a 211, even a 985 or even Qinghua or Peking University would be within reach!"
"Right, right! Let's just forget about this year! Haha! We get to go to college!"
His classmates in the group didn't have any ill will toward Zhao Yang, but they didn't have any good feelings either.
Because while Zhao Yang had good grades, he was also quite aloof. Except for when Song Xi asked him questions, which he answered every time, he basically ignored others when they asked him questions.
Over time, fewer and fewer people were willing to communicate with him.
Right now, talking about Zhao Yang in the group was mainly out of schadenfreude.
Many people are like this; they resent others' success and laugh at those who have nothing.
Especially for a student like Zhao Yang, who was aloof and genuinely had excellent grades, many people hoped, to some extent, in their hearts.
For him to fall!
To let him take a big tumble!
And after Zhao Yang truly took a big tumble, many people were actually quite happy in their hearts, holding onto the mindset of watching the fun or watching fireworks.
Furthermore, Zhao Yang himself said he could get into a 211.
This only stirred up everyone's enthusiasm for gossip.
This was also the reason why the group for Class 37 of Senior High became so lively.
Class Teacher Huang clearly knew this as well.
Watching the students in the group excitedly discussing this matter, he sighed softly; he understood his students' thoughts very well.
But, he didn't know how to resolve it.
However, there was actually no need to resolve it; it was just a passing phase.
Regardless of whether Zhao Yang could get into a 211, after the admissions were over, everyone would at most say a few more words, and after chatting for a while, it would pass.
Class Teacher Huang was actually also very curious whether Zhao Yang could truly be accepted by Beijing Forestry University.
According to the admissions in previous years, this school admitted students with a minimum score of 560 or 570, and sometimes even a score of 570 or 580 wasn't enough!
Although this was only a middle-to-upper-tier 211, it was in Yanjing after all, and many people wanted to go to a big city like Yanjing for their future development.
Therefore, this directly pushed up the cutoff score for this school.
Could Zhao Yang really be accepted?
Class Teacher Huang was slightly curious.
Initially, Class Teacher Huang felt that Zhao Yang was just bragging, or finding an excuse to repeat a year, but thinking back to the attitude Zhao Yang had when communicating with him on the day of filling out the applications.
Class Teacher Huang felt that this matter didn't seem that simple.
Zhao Yang seemed... to have some certainty!
The group was still chatting.
The student group for Class 37 of Senior High was exceptionally lively today.
Taking advantage of the commotion, Zhao Yang sent the screenshot from his computer into the group.
"?????"
"No way, he was actually accepted!"
"? Holy crap! And it's Beijing Forestry University!"
"No, what is this? Can you even snipe a spot like this? Beijing Forestry University!! Ahhhhh! If I had known, I would have applied to this school too!"
"Damn! A score of 530-something can get into a 211, then what does my 550 points getting into a non-211/985 count for???"
"550 is fine, I freaking got 570 and also went to a non-211/985! I'm regretting it so much!"
...
In the group, the students of Class 37 of Senior High were in an uproar, and everyone was filled with disbelief.
They had never imagined that Zhao Yang could actually be accepted into a 211!
And the school he was accepted into was actually in Yanjing!
Beijing Forestry University, which many people dreamed of, was actually sniped by Zhao Yang with such a low score!
Class Teacher Huang also saw that screenshot.
He was instantly stunned.
He was actually... really accepted?
This can be sniped too?
This...
For a moment, Class Teacher Huang was also speechless; he didn't know what to say.
Song Xi had been paying attention to the Class 37 of Senior High group.
She naturally saw the screenshot Zhao Yang sent, and her eyes were filled with surprise.
Beijing Forestry University!
It was actually a university in Yanjing!
And it really was a 211!
How did he do it??
Song Xi's eyes were filled with curiosity and confusion.
Her curiosity about Zhao Yang had reached its peak.
Meanwhile, the group had completely exploded, with many people starting to send messages, and not just in the group.
They also started sending messages to their friends.
Soon, the news that Zhao Yang had sniped a spot at the 211 Beijing Forestry University with 534 points quickly spread throughout the entire circle of Changcheng No. 1 High School.
Zhao Yang just glanced at the messages in the group, not bothering to respond to those people's inquiries about him.
Just as he was about to close QQ.
