Chapter 566: Chapter 566
Experimental First High School conducted streaming by the first semester of Senior Two, typically offering more science classes and fewer arts classes. With ten classes, there would be at least six or seven science classes and three to four arts classes. From these, they would select the best students for specialized experimental classes.
After the teacher mentioned this, the classmates started discussing it after class. Regarding Zhou Yiyi’s grades, she could fit into either the science or arts streams. Science relied on practice, while arts depended on memory. The decisive factor in choosing either would be what she wanted to do in the future.
She carefully reviewed the industries she had encountered so far.
Before her transmigration, she was a respiratory physician.
In her first life, she was a cook but later became a business owner. She learned about finances and computer training during that period. Although not an expert, she had a basic understanding—after all, a boss can’t afford to be unable to read financial statements, right?
In her second life, she was also a businesswoman and became a Princess, learning talent management, needlework, calligraphy, painting, and guqin. She wasn’t an expert in these areas, but she could manage in major events.
Her third life was as a Special Forces operator who remained alone her entire life and read extensively. She might not dare claim expertise in other fields, but this greatly helped her in writing.
In her fourth life, she was overweight, focused on losing weight, and studied medicine and poisons in the first half of her life. In the latter half, she focused on nurturing her character and solidified her skills in calligraphy and guqin. Although she was criticized for being repulsive by many in this life, Tangyuan thought that being the lone favorite in the harem, criticized by ministers from the previous dynasty, was not conducive to national interests. She aimed for Merit Value, not to become a femme fatale. Regardless of her intentions or the critiques, she succeeded in her task and was indifferent to the naysayers.
Considering everything, there were still a great many industries she had not yet explored. Currently, she was considering law and computer science because the gaming industry was booming, and venturing into IT was appealing. As for law, she purely thought being a lawyer was cool, but it wasn’t for everyone, so she left it to fate and her future grades. However, science was almost a definite choice.
When she asked Zhou Mo and Lin Mu, unexpectedly, Lin chose either the Beijing Film Academy or a famous media university known for its broadcasting majors.
"How about it? With my looks and my dancing and singing skills, don’t I fit the bill?"
After a brief moment of surprise, Zhou Yiyi gave him a thumbs-up, "Then you need to prepare in advance; you’ll have to enter arts exams early. But Lin Mu, with your grades, you don’t need to choose this path. Are you sure this is what you want?" Find the newest release on novelfire.net
Lin nodded, "I’m very sure. I’ve always been curious about how those heroes in TV dramas fly around. If I become a star one day, can I also satisfy that craving in dramas?"
Zhou Mo scoffed disdainfully, obviously unimpressed, and Zhou Yiyi’s attention shifted to him, curiously asking,
"And you? What do you want to study?"
Zhou Mo paused a moment, about to ask her choice, when Lin suddenly interjected, "Hey, don’t just ask us. What about you? What are your choices?"
"Me? I’m considering Beijing and Shanghai for now, waiting to see my future grades. If they’re good, Beijing and Qinghua; if not so good, maybe Fudan, Nankai, or Zhejiang University. If worse comes to worst, I’ll consider even lower options. Either way, it’ll all depend on my grades."
"And what major are you thinking about?"
Zhou Yiyi hadn’t yet decided on computer science or law, so she cautiously answered,
"I’ll think about that once the college entrance exam results are out. It’s not just about where I want to go; it’s about where I can get in."
Lin looked at her and then at Zhou Mo, "Right, you’re not like me. Since I’ve settled on arts exams, I need to focus on that. Grades don’t matter as much as performance in those exams. Did you both choose science?"
Zhou Mo nodded, and she hesitated before also nodding.
At that, Lin immediately said, "Then I’ll choose science too. It’s best if we end up in the same class."
After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Mo suddenly turned to Zhou Yiyi, "Haven’t you ever thought about direct admission?"
Zhou Yiyi froze for a moment, "Direct admission?" It really hadn’t crossed her mind.
"If you don’t mind my asking, what did your father do? How did he die?"
Zhou Yiyi knew what Zhou Mo meant. "He served in an army unit and died during a disaster relief operation. It probably doesn’t qualify for direct admission policies, and even if it did, wouldn’t it need to be a military academy?"
"Haven’t you joined the Calligrapher Association? Could that qualify you for direct admission?"
Zhou Yiyi wasn’t sure, "Isn’t it only if you win First Prize in biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, or computer science? My case likely doesn’t qualify. As for the provincial excellent student award, I don’t even dare think about it, so I guess I’ll honestly sit for the college entrance exam without dreaming about impractical options."
"With such good handwriting, you could actually pursue a related major and continue to break new ground."
Zhou Yiyi shook her head, "It’s just a hobby; I don’t want it to be my livelihood, so I won’t consider it."
Her rationality impressed both Lin Mu and Zhou Mo, especially Zhou Mo, who from her words understood her truly independent side.
But when Lin pressed him about his future aspirations, his reply was,
"Medicine or physics. There’s a physics competition this semester, which I’ll try. If successful, maybe I could get direct admission."
After contemplating for a moment, Zhou Yiyi gave Zhou Mo a thumbs up, "Both subjects aren’t easily managed by just anyone. Physics requires talent, and as for medicine, hehe, it’s not just about talent, but also continuous effort and refinement. If you truly choose to pursue medicine, you need to be prepared for continuous studies all the way from bachelor to doctoral degrees because the path of a medical student is really full of endless tests and memorization, and it’s very tough."
Since Zhou Mo was considering it, he clearly understood the validity of Zhou Yiyi’s words, but then, "How do you know so much?"
See, there was no need for him to ask; someone had already asked.
"Because I also considered heading in that direction, so I did a lot of research online. Later, I realized I probably don’t have the perseverance for it, so I just gave up on that idea."
Lin laughed upon hearing this, "I didn’t expect you, Zhou Yiyi, to have fears too. But yeah, that does sound quite daunting. Zhou Mo, are you sure you want to pursue this?"
Zhou Mo shrugged noncommittally and didn’t say more, turning back to his studies. However, from his eyes, Zhou Yiyi saw determination and confidence. Given Zhou Mo’s inherent excellence, in the future, he might actually become a member of Xiehe Hospital.
