The second paper was Finn Ford’s. Everyone chose C. If handled seriously, this would score zero.
Mio Osborne casually flipped through it and also gave it a zero.
The last one was Sumr Monroe’s paper.
All five multiple-choice questions in the Chinese section were answered with B. No doubt, this part would definitely be a zero.
However, when Mio started grading the math section, his eyes slightly widened, and a faint ripple appeared on his face.
For the math paper, Sumr Monroe hadn’t guessed randomly. She got all ten multiple-choice questions correct, as well as the fill-in-the-blank and the big questions.
At that mont, Mio could hardly believe that this paper was done by Sumr Monroe, a poor student.
But what shocked Mio even more was that Sumr Monroe didn’t leave the advanced question blank either.
It’s important to note that the knowledge points for this advanced question weren’t part of the high school curriculum but pertained to advanced mathematics.
He included this question without expecting anyone to solve it, because he intended to use it to start a new advanced mathematics lesson.
The question encompassed many points from advanced mathematics. Not to ntion Sumr Monroe, it would take even soone who studied advanced mathematics for years about an hour to solve it. There’s just not enough ti during the exam, and even if soone could solve it, they’d run out of ti.
So when Mio saw that Sumr Monroe filled in the blanks for the advanced question, he was surprised but didn’t think she could have gotten it right.
He patiently examined the densely packed answers.
Upon seeing the first formula, Mio smirked at the corner of his mouth. Using a high school formula to solve an advanced math problem?
Sure enough, he shouldn’t have expected too much from Sumr Monroe.
Mio was about to mark it with a big cross when, scanning the final answer, he froze.
Sumr Monroe wrote the answer as: 1.3129.
And the correct answer... was also 1.3129!
If other answers might have been guessed correctly, this answer, with so many decimal places, couldn’t have been guessed right.
Mio’s gaze lingered on the answer for several seconds. After confirming he didn’t see wrong, he began reviewing Sumr Monroe’s solution process from the start.
As he continued reading, Mio beca completely engrossed.
Because Sumr actually used a few high school math formulas to solve this question that included many concepts from advanced mathematics. Her solution process and perspective were exceptionally brilliant.
Mio repeatedly studied Sumr’s answer, even feeling the urge to write a paper on her thod of solving.
Until a student below asked, "Mr. Osborne, are we having free ti now or starting class directly?"
Only then did Mio snap out of the papers. He replied, "Everyone, familiarize yourselves first. We’ll officially start class in five minutes."
After speaking, he ignored the other students, firmly morizing Sumr’s answer process, and continued grading the papers.
Next was the English section, and after a quick glance at the answers, Mio couldn’t control his expression. His mouth twitched heavily.
The English section was actually a perfect score, including the advanced English question.
The advanced English question was a reading fill-in-the-blank with many obscure words, words that even he, who spent over six years abroad, had to look up in the dictionary, yet Sumr got them all right!
No, not just English was perfect; math was too.
If it weren’t for Chinese drastically dragging her down, Sumr’s score would certainly surpass Willow Grant!
He was shocked as he glanced at Sumr Monroe.
He saw Sumr half-lying on the desk, unsure whether she was asleep or daydreaming.
In that mont, Mio’s perception of Sumr Monroe was completely overturned.
