It's autumn.
The last year of the four years of high school has begun.
Shelton despised Petunia High School for four years. That’s for a reason. In the end, it was only three years without delay. He went to the University of Texas at Austin and became a full-time college student.
Emmet walked on campus in a gloomy mood.
With the departure of Little Sheldon, the hard candy band just fell apart, and no one seemed to care about it except him.
Adam is obsessed with Transformers and cannot extricate himself.
Juno was out there, and occasionally I saw her intimate with the girl named Karen Smith, which made him deeply suspicious and wanted to complain: "You are really enough, not only wasting your own resources, but also grabbing resources with us. Up."
The 12th year of senior high school has reached a dividing line.
Students with good grades begin to work hard for the university, either taking preparatory courses or applying for the SAT.
And Emmet recently went to Adam and found that in addition to studying Transformers with Jennifer, Adam was also preparing for the SAT.
While this makes Emmet envy and jealous, he also deeply admires Adam.
Replaced by him, with a girl like Jennifer, how can I think about learning?
"Oh, violent things."
Emmet sighed deeply.
is not only for the alienation of his friends, but also for his dazed future.
With his grades, don't think about prestigious schools. Coupled with his family conditions, he doesn't have the money to go to a normal university. Oh, there should be no money to go to school.
Colleges and students are becoming more and more like businesses and consumers. Spending so much money is naturally worthy of a wave of words.
is different from the eastern country. American universities were prepared for the upper class from the beginning, so the selection is also very high-class aristocratic.
Eastern country’s score-only theory, thousands of horses squeezing a single-plank bridge, is despised by some people, and the example often cited is the quality-only theory of admissions to American universities.
What is the quality-only theory?
That is not to judge heroes by points.
So who is the hero?
Either you have money or you have power, and in the United States, power and money are interlinked, so it can only be summed up in one sentence.
Krypton can become stronger!
The first-class krypton gold powerhouses are the rich second generation or the rich N generation. Their parents have completed wealth accumulation. Before they were born, they established a foundation to donate money to top famous schools to build buildings, introduce famous teachers and high-level teaching equipment.
So, no matter what the rich second-generation or the rich N-generation was in high school, how bad the grades are, he can lie down and enter the world's top prestigious schools that countless people work hard but can't enter.
The real winner in life!
The most interesting example is that Leonard and his Physics Department organize a dinner. The dean asked Sheldon and Leonard to take the flattery of these big money in the past to sponsor the Physics Department.
Sheldon refused at the beginning. He relied on his talent and appearance, where he needed to slap other people's flattery, but then he was reminded by Amy that he was afraid that all these large sums of money would be donated to him, which is not scientific at all. Geology is even the humanities.
So he went out, but the dean never stopped Sheldon from sponsoring, and even ordered him not to appear at similar events again, because Sheldon’s flattering is a hard shot, and he is unwilling to hold his hands with others, and he is straightforward. Said: "Give us the money quickly."
Fortunately, they have a small fundraiser Leonard. He was so admired by a teacher because he was very similar to the teacher’s boyfriend in college. At the beginning, she chose money, but now her husband is dead and holding a large amount of wealth, she is ready to Realize your dreams in Leonard.
Leonard refused at first, but when the teacher asked Leonard too rhetorically: "Why do you think I married the rich man back then?" He directly stunned Leonard, and then moved his heart.
Finally, various encouragements in Shelton, including not limited to going to the next door medical department to get blue pills and safety measures for Leonard, the soft-footed shrimp Leonard successfully collected a super luxurious centrifuge for the physics department .
Sheldon’s evaluation of Leonard: This is your greatest contribution to the scientific community.
Shelton’s evaluation of Mr. Tai is: This is an old widow who wants to raise her social status by donating money.
If this old widow has a child and wants to go to college, then Caltech opens up to him because the child is of quality.
Maybe he didn’t do anything, he couldn’t do anything, but the family business and social status accumulated by generations of people are not as good as your more than ten years of struggle?
Struggling in a lifetime is not as cruel as reincarnation once!
The second-rate krypton gold powerhouse has a slightly lower wealth and status, and can become stronger without real krypton gold, that is, directly throw money to open the door of prestigious schools.
They will spend hundreds of thousands of such ‘small money’ donations to prestigious schools and become members of the donation committee of the prestigious school. When their children apply for the university, they will be given priority by the admissions office of the school.
The third-rate krypton gold powerhouse, wealth and social status are even a little bit worse, even hundreds of thousands of them are reluctant to drop.
They will spend less money to allow their children to attend college preparatory courses, honors courses, and participate in various niche sports that represent qualities, such as equestrianism, golf, etc. These niche sports, which are recognized as representing qualities, are public High schools do not have the conditions to set up courses at all. Even if they do, most of the students don’t even have money to buy equipment.
After three consecutive years of such quality, most of the students in prestigious schools have gone, plus there are geniuses like Sheldon and Peggy who need to be hired exceptionally, and there are very few places left for civilian students.
There are too many monks and few porridge, and there are so many civilian students, how can I get them?
So there is the SAT, the English abbreviation for academic ability assessment, which is the U.S. college entrance examination.
After going around and around, the quality-only theory has returned to the grade-only theory, but at this point, it is no longer a national college entrance examination like Dongguo, with thousands of troops squeezing a single wooden bridge, but a large number of'quality' students. , Followed their'qualified' parents and flew directly to the other side, smiling and watching countless civilian students squeezing the wire rope.
No standard is the biggest standard!
County High School.
In the eyes of countless lemon spirits breathing fire, Adam and Jennifer walked into the campus jokingly and met Juno and Karen head-on. Adam was a little strange, but still smiled and greeted: "Hi, Juno, Karen."
And Jennifer looked at Karen, who was like Juno and Ben, and the smile on her face instantly solidified.
WTF? !
Karen shouldn’t be in her shape, girlfriend?
Although she has devoted her whole body and mind to studying Transformers and mechanical aesthetics with Adam during this period, she has no time to talk about Karen, but this is not the reason for Karen to do so.
What the **** does Karen wear?
And this **** named Juno, as are the red hoodie pocket.
Is it a girlfriend outfit?
A pair of Little Red Riding Hoods?
