Chapter 239: ?Chapter 2: Paper Shuffle
One day, a heavy atmosphere hung over the class.
However, this atmosphere was by no ans pessimistic. It was filled with just the right amount of tension.
The first to take this in was Class D's teacher, Chabashira-sensei.
"Please find your seats. All of you seem to have made plenty of preparations."
As soon as she walked into the classroom, the atmosphere quickly grew heavier and beca more dignified.
Compared to before, the class we presented her with looked natural. In this respectful atmosphere, Chabashira-sensei didn't hide her surprise.
"Everyone looks rather serious. It's hard for
to believe that everyone here is part of Class D."
"That's because today is when you announce the results of the mid-term exam, right?"
Ike spoke with a slightly nervous look on his face. Chabashira-sensei responded with a sly smile.
"That's exactly right. You're required to drop out imdiately if you fail your midterm or final exams. I've told you this before, so it should still be fresh in your mories. It's natural to be nervous or anxious, but none of you even had the proper ntality until now. I'm glad to see all of you growing up."
Chabashira-sensei comnded her student's new, never before seen attitude, but that doesn't an that our scores will be any better. The only real change has been to our ntalities.
As a matter of course, Chabashira-sensei dared to say this.
"However, you'll need to be prepared for the consequences if you've failed. So now I'm going to post the midterm exam results. Make sure you don't mix up your na and score."
The reason why she reminded us is precisely that this warning is genuine. If soone was unable to accept their scores and reacted violently, the school wouldn't hesitate to respond harshly with ample evidence from the caras watching the students installed in every classroom.
"Sure enough, I can see everyone's test scores."
"Of course. It's one of the rules of the school."
Regardless of the students' willingness to have their personal information displayed, the results for all the students in Class D were posted on the blackboard. There's absolutely no privacy at all. The results are always revealed without reservation. Just as a salesman's performance chart is posted for the entire company, it reveals those at the top and those at the bottom.
In cases like these, the ones who stand out the most are those with particularly good or bad grades. Those who fall behind are the ones who will suffer and beco subjected to selfish pressure and contempt from their surroundings.
"For all subjects, it's fine to consider the passing grade to be a score of 40 points or more. Those who do not et this standard will be subjected to expulsion."
The threshold for passing the midterms was almost the sa as it was for previous exams, but the situation was a little bit different.
"The scores announced from now on will also reflect your results at the sports festivals. In terms of results, those who achieved high scores and found success at the festival attained a score exceeding 100 points. In these cases, the score will be treated as a full score."
The ten students who achieved the worst results during the sports festival would have to take a 10 point deduction on their midterm exams. Class D's Sotomura had one of the worst performances in the entire grade, so he was one of the people who had to score 10 points higher in all subjects.
However, the students who didn't receive penalties such as Ike and Sudō still had very stiff expressions. A system of imdiate expulsion due to a single failing mark places a heavy burden on all students both physically and ntally.
The students watched attentively as the test results were slowly posted onto the board.
However, Horikita showed no impatience for seeing the scores.
"Oh!? Oh!? You're kidding!?"
The ranking of the results began with the lowest score. In other words, everyone expected Sudō, who ca in last during both the midterm and final exams of the first sester, to place in last once again this ti around. However, the first na posted was "Haruki Yamauchi" along with his grades in various subjects. The next was "Ike Kanji
