Chapter 220: 【220】Encouragement from a Stranger Senior Chapter 220: 【220】Encouragement from a Stranger Senior “Ah, you’ve learned well.” The teacher directly praised her, “Just listening to that answer tells me you’ve studied radiography. What year are you in now?”
“Fourth year,” Xie Wanying said.
“About to start your internship?”
The teacher’s words touched on a hot topic that had been preoccupying Xie Wanying and the other male students in her class lately.
“The instructor is helping me apply for an early internship.”
“Early internship? You are?”
“I’m in the eight-year program.”
The teacher counted in his mind and, after finishing, was greatly surprised: eight-year program, shouldn’t internships be during the last two years? She still needs another two years before interning.
This situation could only mean that this student had talent, surpassing the other students.
The teacher’s sigh made all the students present, including Xie Wanying, surprised and puzzled. Xie Wanying thought: Does this radiology teacher know her? What’s going on?
“You will advance to your internship,” the female teacher said to her with a smile.
Xie Wanying looked at the doctor’s badge on the teacher’s chest, which read: Qin Ruoyu, Rank, Associate Senior.
Obviously, this clinical predecessor was quite remarkable, or else how could she be an associate senior at such a young age.
“Work hard,” Teacher Qin Ruoyu said to her earnestly.
Xie Wanying nodded her head but still didn’t know how the teacher knew her name.
Whether or not it was Teacher Qin’s prophecy, when she returned to school that evening, the instructor’s notice arrived, allowing her to take the exam next week.
The first subject of the exam was Social Medicine. Ren Chongda first picked on the less focused subjects to test students, leaving Xie Wanying with no time to review.
The instructor’s calculations were exquisite. Xie Wanying had no idea what the instructor was thinking. That day, when the class went to attend their lessons, she was alone in the next room taking the exam, with the instructor and another teacher jointly proctoring her.
When she received the exam paper, Xie Wanying breathed a sigh of relief: the first exam was actually the easiest subject.
Social Medicine required a lot of memorization, with fewer natural science elements. It was said that this minor subject didn’t need special attention, but since she had known from her seniors about the subjects to be tested, she had reviewed them a long time ago.
Swiftly, she finished the questions, checked them twice, and when the time was up, she turned in her paper.
During this time, the two teachers watched her answer the questions and exchanged glances.
Ren Chongda realized he had miscalculated. He should never have underestimated the top female student in his class.
If she could get a perfect score in an overlooked minor subject, then the major subjects, which she would have undoubtedly reviewed thoroughly, wouldn’t be difficult for her. Ren Chongda touched his forehead and decided to ask the student directly, “Which subject do you fear testing the most?”
Could it be Diagnostic Medicine, Pharmacology? These two subjects were highly integrated, covering too many areas, with many intricate knowledge points, making it difficult to score high.
Xie Wanying answered, “Ethics Studies.”
Ethics Studies? Both teachers were shocked out of their wits.
Why Ethics Studies? Because the grading by the teacher for this subject was too subjective, similar to a literature paper. To get a high score, if one couldn’t grasp the examiner’s thought process and grading criteria, it was impossible to score well.
“Teacher Ren, if there are essay questions in Ethics Studies, I might need to listen to the teacher’s lecture before taking the exam; otherwise, I’m afraid my personal views on clinical ethics might differ too greatly from the teacher’s,” Xie Wanying said.
After hearing her explanation, the only thought in Ren Chongda’s mind was: This top female student from his class was clearly more robotic than the robots in the hospital, truly acting as expected.
“You should take the other subjects first,” Ren Chongda said, “If there are essay questions in the Ethics Studies exam, it should be an open-book exam.”
