Exam Results

On the second day of the exam.

Tuesday, July 24.

At last, all the exams were over.

At least, I solved all the questions.

But there were an unusual number of questions, and I could not reconfirm whether the answers were correct or not.

I sighed heavily as a strong sense of anxiety settled over me.

Sighs of relief escaped from the mouths of the other students one after another.

Unlike me, they sighed with relief.

However, the tension only loosened for a few seconds.

Unlike in the past, students today didn’t have time to feel a sense of liberation just because their regular exams were over.

The reason was that the results were immediately announced since the machine automatically graded the tests.

As soon as the homeroom teacher entered the classroom, a screen opened up in front of all of us.

The names of the 10 subjects of the test were displayed on the MR screen in invisible mode, visible only to me.

“You all have worked very hard for the past three months. Now, let me quickly announce the results of your exams.”

Scores and average scores were displayed one after another next to each subject on the MR screen, which was deployed in the air.

I got above-average scores in Modern Japanese, Old Japanese, Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, and Physics.

But I was aiming for Advance Course, and this much should be a given, not a relief.

Geography, history, civics, and English also exceeded the average score.

“There are 306 first-year students in all. Students with grades of 102nd and above will be placed in the Advance Course, and 204th and above will be placed in the University Preparatory Course that ranked 205th and below will be in the Comprehensive Course. Now I will announce the rankings.”

I was so nervous, I could hear my heart beating without having to put my hand on my chest.

As I gulped, my hands sweating, the rankings appeared on the screen.

58th.

My eyelids raised and froze.

I kept reexamining them, wondering if I was looking at the wrong person.

There was no mistake.

The screen showed 58th place, and I was in the Advance Course by a comfortable margin.

Alright, I struck a gut pose with my right hand.

I noticed that all eyes of KIRIHA and the others were on me.

They seemed to have guessed from my gut pose that I had been accepted into the Advance Course.

Everyone congratulated me with smiles.

Then some students spoke up.

“Ha!? I’m in 110th place!?”

“Guh, teacher, this exam is unfair. You should have known the lessons at the eighth-grade level, right? But there were so many questions that I didn’t have time to solve them in the first place!”

“That’s right. This puts those who have the knowledge but are slow in reading the questions at a disadvantage!”

When the three students protested, the female teacher looked at them rather sternly.

“As I recall, you guys have missed the deadline for submitting homework assignments several times.”

The students were momentarily intimidated by that remark, but they retorted.

“So what? If we do that amount of work, we won’t be able to do anything after school!”

“That’s right. What’s the point of doing something that you should easily solve? That kind of homework is useless!”

“Then, teacher, if you were given a homework assignment with a million single-digit addition problems, would you do it?”

The female teacher repositioned her glasses and said.

“That’s why you are so slow-witted.”

The cold words left the three students speechless.

“If the results are the same, it stands to reason that the person who did it in less time would excel. Why did you spend the last three months studying at the elementary school level? It was to build up basic skills, to get your head around things faster, and to develop a study habit.”

The teacher was right.

I strongly felt that myself.

“In high school math, you don’t have additional problems, but you do use the four arithmetic operations to solve equations. Therefore, quick thinking leads to studying at the high school level.”

The teacher’s gaze became sharper and her voice heavier.

“Yet you guys have neglected it. Because of that, your brains were not trained, and to this level and number of questions, you will not have enough time. In fact, there are a number of students who placed much lower than you in all the exams but got into the Advance Course in this exam.”

The three students slumped in their seats, unable to say anything in response to the chilling words.

Then the teacher gently relaxed her voice and expression.

“Now, everyone, in the second semester, you will be divided into new classes, and while you are doing your preparatory exercises at the 3rd year of junior high school level, as soon as that is over, you will study at the high school level appropriate for your respective courses. Thank you for your hard work for the past three months. Please take the summer vacation starting next week to refresh your minds and bodies and prepare for the second semester. You will have plenty of homework to do.”

The students sighed heavily at the last smile on their faces.

They all seemed to be expecting to be released from homework hell.

I, too, was a little disappointed when I thought of Kiriha.
