On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter

Chapter 169 The Unexpected First!

Right now, the only person who can outperform Yang Jiayi is Chen Mo.

Sure enough, Su Yuqing soon saw He Xiaoyun looking in Chen Mo's direction.

"In this midterm exam, our class produced the top student in the grade, and the results were outstanding. In the four subjects of Chinese, Mathematics, English, and Science, three of them were scored as full marks. Only the Chinese composition and reading comprehension combined lost 15 points."

He Xiaoyun is also good at keeping people in suspense; she first talks about the results before starting to talk about the people involved.

At this moment, all the students' curiosity was also aroused.

They never expected that while Yang Jiayi, the strongest student in their class, only came in seventh place, someone else would take first place in the grade.

This is too strong.

Even more outrageous is that there were three perfect scores.

Because He Xiaoyun was speaking in Chen Mo's direction, many classmates also looked over.

In this corner, only Su Yuqing has the best historical record.

However, Su Yuqing's grades were only considered average to above average in her class, so it was hard to imagine that she could suddenly jump so dramatically to the top of the grade.

Even Huang Mao and Zhao Yueyue were extremely curious at this moment.

Although Chen Mo recently formed a study group with everyone, he is still quite skilled in mathematics.

But in other aspects, they haven't really seen much yet.

It's hard to imagine that Chen Mo, who used to be an average student, could possibly be ranked first in the grade.

Seeing that she had aroused the curiosity of the whole class, He Xiaoyun announced with a smile, "Let's congratulate Chen Mo on achieving the best result in our class and grade, with a total score of 735 points, which is 15 points higher than the second place!"

Chen Mo was quite clear about the second place He Xiaoyun mentioned; that classmate was from Class 1 and had excellent grades.

In this year's college entrance examination, his score directly met the standards of Kyoto University.

Chen Mo was only able to pass the test because he was a time traveler.

Of course, this is related to Chen Mo's own excellent memory, cautious attitude, and the observation skills he developed during his years as a criminal police officer.

Even if a normal person studied hard in high school, they would not be able to remember much after ten years.

However, because of that unforgettable memory from high school, Chen Mo has vivid memories of everything from that time.

In addition, he has a strong memory, and with just a little review, he can immediately recall and apply the knowledge he learned in high school.

However, it is impossible to get full marks in all three sections with just this.

Because getting a perfect score often has little to do with the breadth of your knowledge.

Many top students, when their exam papers are handed out, can immediately identify the mistakes and correct them without even needing a teacher's correction.

This shows that they already knew how to do these questions. They made mistakes not because they didn't know how, but because as human beings, we are bound to make mistakes.

Especially during exam periods, when time is limited and the brain is working at high speed, it is easier to make mistakes.

Therefore, to get a perfect score, in addition to having enough knowledge, one also needs to have a cautious attitude and keen observation skills.

Having the ability to quickly review one's answers after completing the questions is also a crucial factor affecting exam performance.

Chen Mo's strength lies in this: while the top students in his class could only check their work once at most, he could check it several times.

In comparison, Chen Mo's chances of making mistakes on exam questions are much lower than those of other top students in the same period.

Chen Mo's ability to get full marks in all three categories this time is the result of his repeated review.

He found and corrected errors in all three subjects during the review process: mathematics, English, and science.

If Chen Mo had submitted his paper immediately after completing the first draft without checking anything, his score would probably be less than 700, maybe around 690 at most.

This is the difference between something that has been carefully inspected and something that hasn't.

The second-place student was the same; without a check, his score would have been around 690, not much different from Chen Mo's.

After hearing the name He Xiaoyun mentioned, wow!

All the students were in an uproar.

Because the name far exceeded their expectations.

How can someone who has always been an average student in their class suddenly become the top student in the grade?
This is too outrageous.

Chen Mo didn't seem to care much about his classmates' amazement.

He could have deliberately done poorly on the test to avoid attracting so much attention.

But Chen Mo was unsure of himself after returning this time. Since he finally had a major exam, he naturally wanted to test himself to see if his performance was comparable to others and whether he had forgotten any of the knowledge he had memorized.

Clearly, after returning to school and reviewing his high school knowledge, his intense, almost obsessive, hard work during high school had not been in vain.

He successfully applied the knowledge he had learned before.

Hearing such results, Chen Mo himself was also gratified.

After mentioning Chen Mo's grades, He Xiaoyun said with a smile, "Our class hasn't changed seats for half a semester. Next, we'll rearrange the seats based on exam scores."

Soon He Xiaoyun displayed a seating chart on the projector.

As everyone could see, this seating arrangement basically put all the high-achieving students as deskmates, while the low-achieving students were paired with other low-achieving students.

After all, there are only six months left, and teachers don't want struggling students to negatively impact the learning of good students.

However, this does not mean they have completely given up on struggling students.

After posting the seating chart, He Xiaoyun continued, "If any students wish to change their seating arrangement, they can come to the teacher privately, and the teacher will adjust it for them based on the actual situation."

He Xiaoyun's words were simple: if there are those who want to study seriously, she will definitely make arrangements accordingly.

She once tried arranging good students and bad students to sit at the same table.

The hope is that this method can help high-achieving students support lower-achieving students and improve everyone's grades together.

However, things often don't go as planned. Instead of improving the grades of the struggling students, the harassment from the struggling students can actually cause their grades to drop.

Since then, He Xiaoyun has adopted this rather extreme seating arrangement to ensure that good students can influence and improve each other.

If a struggling student shows the desire and idea to improve, she will rearrange the schedule and will not give up on them completely, provided that the student genuinely wants to improve.
