I, Tomoya Aki, am not a bootlicker

Being in such an environment, as a competitor, Aki Tomoya felt that this was right, so the atmosphere was very important.

If you don't try your best in this kind of atmosphere, you will become a stepping stone for others.

But, after all, it's just a mock exam...

“I must pass the exam this year!”

A girl next to me was praying very hard, it seemed that she was a repeater.

There are too many repeaters like this. In order to get into a good university, it is possible to repeat for two or three years as long as the family is willing to support.

Not only the candidates from the same year, but also the repeaters from previous years.

But there are not too many people who want to take the entrance exam to the University of Tokyo, especially in the third year of science, which is the medical school.

However, anyone who plans to apply to the University of Tokyo should not be underestimated, especially those in Science 3.

I don't know when, the surroundings have become quiet. The entire examination room is silent, and everyone is waiting for the invigilator's order.

"Start answering the questions!"

Blah, blah—

Open the test papers neatly and then concentrate on the test paper in front of you.

……

The entire admissions assessment mock exam was held on the 11th and 12th.

After finishing the exam on the 12th, Aki Tomoya breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't use his full strength, but he was still a little tired.

Just wait for the results to come out.

One week's time, next Saturday the 18th.

He finished the exam in the morning and left in the afternoon. Because it was Sunday, there were no classes in the school. Therefore, on the day after the exam, Akitomo was cared for by Harumi Junko.

Although he was somewhat touched, he still couldn't help but say to her: "Teacher Harumi, you are so long-winded..."

Akitomo was a little overwhelmed by the constant asking of repetitive questions.

When asked how he felt, he could only answer that it was not good.

"That's too much. I clearly care about you..."

"I know, but let me take a break first. I don't have time to rest during the summer vacation."

"Thanks for your hard work!"

On the second day, during tutoring at the cram school, it was not only Harumi Junko who asked about his situation and expectations, but everyone around him was also very concerned about his mock entrance examination.

Aki Tomoya responded with the same answer.

"You are being modest again. This kind of modesty is really irritating!"

Kudo Sayaka said somewhat unhappily.

Every time I say it’s not good, but the result is always gratifying.

"But the person you're comparing it to is different this time, Kudo."

Aki Tomoya shook his head and replied.

They are all a group of people who want to get into the University of Tokyo. If you don’t compare yourself with the people behind you, the gap will become apparent when you compare yourself with the people in front of you.

"There are a bunch of people who have been aiming for the University of Tokyo since they were young, no, some of them are like Harumi-sensei, and there are also quite a few repeaters. Don't think too highly of me."

Should I be confident at this time?

Of course you have to be confident. How can you succeed if you even look down on yourself?

But objective facts must be considered.

This is not a national mock exam, but a mock test for admission to the University of Tokyo. It is difficult to stand out among those who take this exam.

"It's not good to blindly believe in me and think I'm great. There are many people who are better than me."

Tomoya Aki turned his head and looked at Sayaka Kudo, his expression extremely serious.

Sayaka Kudo next to him could see that he was optimistic, but also more practical.

To be honest, this time's entrance exam mock test, or even the previous mock tests, Aki Tomoya has been saying that the results were not good.

Because the fact is that Tokyo University needs so many people every year, and a large number of them are selected in the first test, and the number of people admitted in the second test is compared with the number of recruits.

My current level may seem very good to others, but I just can’t squeeze in.

There is nothing much to say about this fact.

In short, it is not good. It depends on which group you compare it with.

During the national mock exams, Aki Tomoya just laughed it off when he saw the B rating. There was a high chance of passing the first try, but what about the second try?

The second test is a real test, where you will compete with the top candidates in terms of your strength.

"So you've been aiming at the target all along..."

Sayaka Kudo had mixed feelings.

Compared with the overall situation, Tomoya Aki is definitely now among the top students.

But to get into the University of Tokyo, you have to compete with the best of the best students and have to occupy a place among that group of people.

"So, don't underestimate the heroes of the world, Kudo!"

"Hearing what you said, I'm a little panicked..."

When Sayaka Kudo heard about being compared with the group of people taking the entrance exam for the University of Tokyo, she immediately thought of herself.

Comparing herself with those who are going to take the Keio entrance exam, Kudo Sayaka feels that she is likely to become a stepping stone.

It is not so easy to get into Keio University.

After all, it is a top private university.

"Don't worry, the literature department exam shouldn't be that difficult, right?"

"How to say?"

"There are only two types of exams in Japan, one for the medical department and one for the others."

Because it was the truth, Kudo Sayaka didn't know what to say for a moment.

In Japan's college entrance examination, the overall situation is that the medical department is at the top of the contempt chain.

"It's really wrong to seek comfort from a guy like you!"

Oh, what she had heard.

Even if it's not the medical school exam, it's not that easy to get into the Keio Faculty of Letters, okay?!

"Do you think it's really that easy to get into Keio's literature department?"

Kudo Sayaka said again somewhat unconvinced.

"I know of two people who passed the exam easily."

Aki Tomoya spread his hands helplessly.

Sayaka Kudo knew one of the people he was talking about. That person was in the school, her good friend Fumino Furuhashi.

But she didn't know who the other one, Aki Tomoya, was referring to.

Just as she was wondering who the other person was, she suddenly remembered something and asked curiously, "The other person has a special relationship with you, right?"

"over thinking."

"cut!"

Chapter 169: Rush, Rush (3/6)

A dazzling beam of light with a long tail flame rose into the sky and then bloomed in the sky.

Brilliant fireworks light up the night sky of Tokyo.

Fireworks festival, summer vacation is almost over.

This year's summer festival also included a fireworks display, which was also celebrated at the cram school.

Last year, a group of people watched the fireworks on the rooftop, and this year is no exception.

However, the people who shouted that they had decided to pass the exam became other people, and they got comfort from the people who shouted that, and there were only more than four months left.

After the mock exams next month, only the early December ones are left, and then after the Chinese New Year, we will go to the examination hall.

It can be said that there is not much time left.

"Last year, our seniors also shouted towards the fireworks that they must pass the exam. Why don't you shout too this year?"

Tomoya Aki suggested to Sayaka Kudo who was standing next to him.

Several seniors last year achieved their first choice, so we can follow their example. What if we actually get admitted after we declare our preference?

Kudo Sayaka rolled her eyes at him at first, then really shouted that she really wanted to be admitted to Keio University.

The fireworks display was very short, and the fleeting fireworks completed their mission. However, the group of candidates under the fireworks will not see the results until next year.

The fireworks show ended on the 15th, and on the 18th, Saturday, Harumi Junko received the express mail of the admission decision of the mock entrance examination for Aki Tomoya at the cram school.

She waited until Tomoya Aki arrived before opening the package.

"As expected, I'm only in the upper middle. The group of people who took the exam with me are very strong."

Tomoya Aki's ranking was in the upper middle position, which was about what he expected and a bit dangerous.

Because of this ranking, if I could get in, I would probably be at the bottom.

It was not until now that the people around Tomoya Aki truly understood what it meant to be not good.

"It all depends on how much we can accomplish in the remaining time!"

Harumi Junko raised her head, her eyes full of encouragement.

The judgment this time, as Tomoya Aki said, is not good, but it certainly cannot be said to be bad. There are still more than four months left, which is not a lot, but it is enough for the final sprint.

"If you are really unsure, just apply for the first or second degree, and then transfer to the third degree later."

At the same time, Junko Harumi also mentioned the last resort.

I put the prerequisite of being admitted to the University of Tokyo first, and then in college, I took part in the second competition and successfully transferred to the third year of science.

However, Amaki Tomoya shook his head and said, "It's already ideal now. The key is how to rush forward in the remaining time. If we can get some points in Chinese and English, we can try again. If we only rely on science and mathematics, they are all a group of people who are full of confidence in science and mathematics. We still need to widen the gap in Chinese and English."

In the second exam of the University of Tokyo, in addition to science and mathematics, Chinese and English are also tested.

Those who want to take the science exam at the University of Tokyo are people who are quite confident in science and mathematics, so the gap in this aspect will not be that big. They still have to rely on their Chinese and English scores to try.

The current situation is still enough to support Aki Tomoya's optimism.

The final sprint is crucial.

After discussing the review plan for the remaining days with the two tutors at the cram school, Tomoya Aki returned to his seat with his admission decision.

"It's the final sprint. There are only two mock exams left. It's up to you, Kudo."

Tomoya Aki whispered to Sayaka Kudo who was standing next to him.

Everyone around has been on edge recently, including Sayaka Kudo.

The summer vacation is coming to an end, the third mock exam is approaching, and there is not much time left in the last year of high school.

Now it's getting more tense.

"…Your deviation value is always so enviable."

"Are you jealous? It's a pity that I can't share it with you. You should work harder on yourself."

However, no matter how envious she is, the deviation value can never fly to Sayaka Kudo.

Now take a deep breath and sprint with all your strength in the remaining time.

Sayaka Kudo twirled her pen. The red book of Keio in her hand was already filled with bookmarks and marked with red marks everywhere.

On her right hand side, there are many similar reference books.

And the reference books read by Tomoya Aki are just as many as those read by Sayaka Kudo.
