Freddy Cagwin couldn’t help but smile at the corners of his mouth, nodding and speaking with composure, "Good. Just let know in advance when you co back, and I’ll have my mom start simring it."
As if afraid Nathalie Quinlan wouldn’t understand, he explained, "The old hen brought from my hotown has been raised for several years, and I’m afraid it wouldn’t be stewed properly in just an hour or two. If you want to eat it, it has to be stewed for at least half a day."
Actually, there was no need for him to explain; Nathalie Quinlan, who wouldn’t have thought too much into it, agreed readily, her dark eyes pretty like ink dots. She tugged her cap brim, looking cool, "Got it. I’ll tell you in advance when I co back."
"Good." Freddy genuinely smiled this ti, gazing at the girl’s immaculate profile and pursing his lips, he said earnestly, "Nathalie, I’ve made up my mind. For the college entrance exam, I want to apply to Southern University, their Computer Science departnt."
Nathalie Quinlan hadn’t expected him to also consider universities in Beijing, let alone Southern University right next to Tsinghua University.
A look of surprise appeared on her face, but she didn’t say much, only raising the corners of her eyes and returning him an equally earnest expression, she asked, "Have you thought it through?"
"Southern University isn’t easy to get into, especially their Computer Science departnt, which is considered their ace program. If you want to get in through the college entrance exam, you’ll need at least a score of 700 ."
The college entrance exam has a full score of 750 points.
Language, Mathematics, and Foreign Language each account for 150 points Science (or Liberal Arts) Comprehensive 300 points.
Every year, Southern University’s admission scores are roughly the sa as Tsinghua University, all above 650 points, but this score is only enough for admission. To enter the Computer Science major, you need to stand out from the crowd of admitted students with 650 points, typically exceeding the admission line by more than 30 points to have a chance.
She had so idea of Freddy’s grades in her heart.
He could easily surpass the First-tier University admission line, but there was still a gap from colleges like Southern University and Tsinghua University.
Nathalie Quinlan looked into his eyes, "Confident?"
Freddy Cagwin leaned against the lecture desk like her, looking down with a smile, just as languid yet bold, "Not confident."
He couldn’t get more straightforward!
Nathalie: ...
It was rare for him to see astonishnt on a girl’s face. He smiled, this ti without the previous heaviness, shrugged his shoulders, and his face carried the vim and vigor that an eighteen-year-old boy should have, "Right now, my grades could get at most 630 points in the college entrance exam, which is still 20 points short from the previous year’s admission score for Southern University. So if you ask if I’m confident, the answer is definitely no..."
"However, I’ve made up my mind, either I don’t go to university and study for another year, or I attend the best university and study the best major!"
His family’s financial situation didn’t allow him to waste four years of ti in university. If, after graduating, he had to start over again looking for work, writing resus like thousands of other university graduates, he’d rather not attend university at all.
Nathalie Quinlan, with her eyebrows raised, didn’t speak.
Freddy Cagwin spoke slowly yet firmly, "There’s still more than two months left until the college entrance exam. If I buckle down and study, there’s still a chance. We’ll see if I don’t make it."
Then, turning his head to look at her, he smiled, "Nathalie, you don’t know, after you were set on going to Tsinghua University, everyone in class has been considering universities in Beijing."
"Justin Wafford and Jhovany Sullivan have already agreed to apply to Tsinghua University, and Clerent Miller and her group also want to apply to universities in Beijing. The few people in class who didn’t choose Beijing universities have picked ones nearby..." His eyes glead with a mischievous smile, "Nathalie, seriously, with your charm, have you never considered joining the entertainnt circle?"
"If you were willing to enter the entertainnt industry, I think you could beco famous."
He said this partly in jest.
He had no idea that the girl standing in front of him was the sa Lighten Chaser who had recently shot to fa, threatening the position of a top star.
