Chapter 6: Set a small goal first
After hearing Liu Yanli's words, everyone felt that the competition was too far away from them.
Even in the recent monthly exam, not many people could achieve a 90% score in a single subject.
Not to mention, the final examination is more difficult and covers a wider range.
Besides, except for the top class, other classes have just started .
It is impossible to complete a comprehensive review before the end of the semester.
Students can only rely on themselves to make breakthroughs.
"Competition? It's still a bit too far for me."
For Xu You now, even if he can enter the deep learning state, he cannot guarantee how much improvement he can make within a month.
Not to mention academic competitions at a higher dimension.
If there was more time to prepare, Xu You could give it a try.
Xu You felt that in the entire Class 6, only Lu Zhiyao might be able to participate in the competition.
"Although participating in academic competitions may result in some colleges and universities reducing your score or even providing you with a recommendation, if you are not fully prepared, your chances of doing so are almost zero. You don't have to pay too much attention to this matter. If you are really interested, go back and discuss it with your parents."
"Finally, I would like to emphasize that you should never let the competition affect your normal preparation for the college entrance examination. The college entrance examination is the normal channel for most candidates to enter university."
Xu You agreed with Liu Yanli's words and decided to concentrate on preparing for the final exam.
Anyway, the criteria for registering for the competition is based on the final exam results.
If my final exam results really make a breakthrough, I will consider the competition then.
After finishing talking about these things, Liu Yanli officially started the class.
For many students, Chinese class is a time to relax.
In addition, the rankings had just been announced, and the students all wanted to wait until after class to see the specific scores.
This caused most students to lose their focus in class.
Xu You listened to the class attentively as usual and did not waste a minute.
After class, the class monitor posted the lists on the wall one by one.
The students gathered around and looked at the specific scores on the list.
Because this is a list for the entire grade, it is very convenient for everyone to compare the results of each ranking.
Xu You also walked to the wall, wanting to see how big the gap was between him and other students.
First of all, of course, is the result of the first place - Lu Zhiyao.
[Lu Zhiyao——Grade ranking: 1]
【Chinese: 128】
【Mathematics: 136】
【English：138】
【Physics: 96】
【Chemistry: 94】
[Biology: 92]
【Total score: 684】
Such achievements made Xu You very envious.
Even though the scope of this exam is small, the overall difficulty is not high.
But this level is enough to be admitted to universities like Jinghua University and Jida during the college entrance examination.
In the fourth chapter of the big list, Xu You finally found his place.
[Xu You——Grade ranking: 228]
【Chinese: 114】
【Mathematics: 96】
【English：117】
【Physics: 61】
【Chemistry: 69】
[Biology: 72]
【Total score: 529】
Seeing the score gap between himself and Lu Zhiyao, Xu You felt a little desperate for a moment.
Even if Lu Zhiyao missed one subject, her total score would still be higher than hers.
This is the difference between a weak student and a top student!
"No, we can't rush to compete with students like Lu Zhiyao."
Xu You knew very well that the fact that he surpassed Lu Zhiyao in the physics test just now did not reflect his and Lu Zhiyao's true strength.
Never be fooled by temporary illusions.
You should also keep your feet on the ground.
Set a realistic goal and work towards it.
Xu You looked at the results of the 100th place in the grade.
"The 100th place is 590 points. Let's stick to that goal for now!"
As long as you can improve your average score of 10 points in each subject within a month, you can reach the score of 100th place.
Such improvement may seem simple, but it is actually not easy.
Because the final joint examination covers the entire high school content.
Moreover, because you have to take the exam together with many key high schools, the paper will be much more difficult.
Xu You thought that if he wanted to achieve this goal, he must make good use of the 6 hours of deep learning time every day.
"Let's set a rough time plan first."
Xu You looked at his grades in each subject.
First of all, my Chinese and English grades are pretty good, and there is not much room for improvement in a short period of time.
The main focus should be on the four science subjects: mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology.
Especially in mathematics and physics, there is a lot of room for improvement.
Xu You's grades in chemistry and biology are relatively better.
Because in these two subjects, a lot of things need to be memorized by rote, which was what Xu You was good at before.
As for mathematics and physics, it tests students' understanding and application ability.
Merely relying on rote memorization does not make much sense.
"You should go home for your evening self-study in the future."
According to the regulations of No. 4 Middle School, students can apply to go home for evening self-study with the consent of their parents.
When I was in school, it was easy to attract attention when I turned on the deep learning state to do the exercises.
It’s better to go home and study freely without worrying about attracting other people’s attention.
During the evening self-study period, Xu You started deep learning again.
I didn't use this state to do the questions, but I made specific plans for each subject.
Xu You must complete a round of review for all subjects through self-study within this month.
If I only follow the school's schedule, I will definitely do very badly in the final exam.
After school, Xu You walked back home.
Xu You's home is very close to the school, only a ten-minute walk away, so he doesn't need to live on campus and can go to school conveniently.
"Sure enough, there's still no one at home today."
Xu You turned on the lights in the living room. The huge house seemed very empty.
Xu You is actually already used to
Xu You's parents are both college teachers.
Usually, there are various activities such as working on projects and traveling.
Naturally, he had no energy to take care of Xu You's studies.
"Let's give Dad a call."
Compared to his mother, Xu You's father, Xu Zhou, is relatively less busy.
If there is anything, Xu You will contact Xu Zhou first.
On the phone, Xu You first talked about the results of the recent monthly exam.
Afterwards, Xu You talked about his idea of going home to study on his own.
"Son, can you tell me why you want to go home for evening self-study?"
Xu Zhou took a relatively laissez-faire attitude towards disciplining his son.
However, Xu Zhou still wanted to know what Xu You was thinking.
Xu You thought about it and replied:
"I just want to change the way I study. I feel that the efficiency of studying at night in school is a bit low, and I always have to stay up late after returning home. Why not try studying at home to see if I can improve my efficiency, rest early at night, and be in a better state of study the next day."
