Sword and Magic and Taxi

A week later, the exam came as scheduled. The tutoring students all looked serious. The examination location was placed in the large classroom where the Ordinary Wizard Level Examination was held. This place could isolate the sound and magic from the outside world, and would not be disturbed by the ghosts wandering around the castle all day long. More than thirty tutoring students sat far away from each other, but they could still whisper to each other before the papers were handed out.

We are not children, and we know that there is no point in being nervous and worried at this time, so we are encouraging and blessing each other. We must get good results is the most common thing everyone says.

This exam was personally proctored by Principal Armando Dippet. Other teachers could assist in proctoring through periscopes outside the door, but they were not allowed to enter the examination room. Dumbledore had shaken hands with every student at the door of the classroom and wished them good luck in their exams. When Zhao Mai entered the venue, he held Zhao Mai's hand and asked him in a low voice: How are you preparing for the exam?

Take the exam to the end. Zhao Mai only said four words and then walked in. Dumbledore smiled slightly, and after completing the handshake and blessing ceremony, he sat down on the bench in the corridor outside the classroom, put his hands on his knees, and waited quietly.

Aren't you here to check on your students? Professor Magic Spencer floated to Dumbledore's side, This is the first cram exam that can be recorded in the history of the school. Aren't you excited at all?

This is just an exam, and the students in it are all good. Dumbledore said: I have always believed that the exam is just a test, not a proof of personality and potential. If they can enter school at an early age, some of them will Now he is definitely the best among the wizards, and the others will also be good wizards, and we should make up for their lost time.

You are very kind to the students, but how do they learn? How many pass and how many are eliminated?

Dumbledore smiled and shook his head, not answering the question.

Zhao Mai sits at the front of the classroom on the left, Tolkien is on the far right in the middle, and the tall Ado is naturally in the last row. It is difficult for the three of them to see each other, let alone communicate. Principal Dippet stood in front of Zhao Mai, and his high-pitched voice spread throughout the classroom:

In this exam, everyone has to answer the same questions, but the questions will move by themselves, and you can only answer them by grabbing them, so no one's papers are the same. The pens you use are also cast with anti-cheating spells, so everyone Put away all your tricks. Any candidate who cheats will be treated as if he has no grades, which means Hogwarts will not accept you!

All of you are being paid attention to by the Ministry of Magic. Some of you are receiving special attention due to certain circumstances! His eyes swept across Zhao Mai, Tolkien and Ado, and the meaning was self-evident. Don't think that because you are older than other students in the school, you can go beyond the school rules and regulations. This is never allowed! Remember, any student who attracts attention in the exam will have a difficult future for you! Hand out the papers now, Answer in the order of numbers above!

Since the exam contained a lot of content and spanned multiple grades at one time, four cylinders were handed out in front of everyone, with grades one to four written on them, and containing test questions for the corresponding grades. Open the cylinder numbered one. Inside are the first grade exam questions on Charms, Herbs, Flying and History of Magic. Since there is a written test, the questions in the flying class are basically awarded points.

The bell will be rung every half hour, and once every hour. When the bell is rung for the fourth time, cylinder No. 1 will fly up and return to the table next to the principal, and the papers will be collected. If you forget to put the completed paper into the cylinder, it will equal zero points.

The subjects tested in each grade are different. Some subjects are difficult to test in the form of written questions, so the papers will be very short and can be answered faster than other subjects. Basically, one hour is given for each subject's papers, and there will also be a special reminder when the bell rings before collecting the papers for the corresponding grade. Therefore, the faster you answer the first question, the more time you have to deal with the subsequent questions. It is said that the questions will become more complicated as you go forward, so everyone thinks that if you want to obtain admission qualifications for higher grades, it would be better to go faster at the beginning and leave more time at the end.

But another way of thinking about the exam is not to aim too high, but to ensure that you stay in school first. After all, the higher the grade, the more books you need to read and the knowledge you need to learn. Some even only have general directions. There are no direct answers in the textbooks, so you need to look up the information yourself. How can tutoring students have so much time to read and memorize?

Xiaohua hid in Ado's body and sneaked into the examination room by relying on the ability to suppress magic and psychic powers. Without Xiao Hua, A Duo could only finish writing his own name. He could understand the remaining test questions but could not answer them, so Xiao Hua needed to control and write down the answers. The goal Xiaohua has set for herself is to pass the exam to at least the second grade, and preferably to the third or fourth grade. However, she is not good at memorizing things by rote, so she is not very confident. However, if the test were changed to feeling and perception, all the people present together would not be able to pass her test.

Tolkien knew that his level was only average among others, but this exam format gave him some advantages. He has his own shorthand method, which is like document compression and can condensate a large amount of text and key points. So he thought there would be no problem in completing the exam for the third grade, but for the fourth grade, he would have to wait and see his luck.

Zhao Mai is different from them. There is a technique in psychic powers called psychic memory crystal, which can store a large number of meditation results in it. As long as you continue to use psychic powers to maintain it, you can check it at any time.

Functionally, there is a memory ball in the wizarding world that does something similar. The difference is that the memory ball stores memories, so you have to remember them first, while the spiritual memory crystal only requires meditation, and does not need to be remembered first and then stored, so it is easier to read a large amount of information. In addition, the memory ball is a magical piece of equipment and will definitely be found in the examination room. However, the memory crystal is in sync with Zhao Mai's own psychic powers and can be placed in the head as an invisible and insubstantial thing. When detected from the outside, it is like a part of the brain and will not be discovered.

Yes, Zhao Mai cheated from the beginning to pass this exam.

For the two courses of Animals and Plants and History of Magic, just looking up the information is enough to answer the questions. Zhao Mai uses his psychic powers to do two things, so he can naturally write very fast. It only took him half the time to answer the questions on the first horn. After installing it, he took apart the second horn.

In second grade, flying class was equivalent to Quidditch activity class, and the topic was just half a sheet of Quidditch rules. The Potions and Astronomy topics appeared, right after the Transfiguration and Animals topics. All of the above are fine. The most troublesome course that students recognize appears in the second grade, and that is the arithmetic course that everyone has a headache with.

The only course that cannot be passed by rote memorization is this. This course is available from the second grade to the seventh grade. It involves ordinary mathematics, as well as some geometry-related magic pattern drawing and map making, and is recognized by everyone. There are two types of most perverted questions: one is to calculate the optimal casting model of a certain spell based on the person's physical condition and the details of the wand; the other is to use arithmetic to perform divination.

Zhao Mai rubbed his hands. He graduated with a serious mathematics major. Although this does not mean that he will definitely be able to get high scores, but if he has enough time, getting good grades is not a big problem.
