Mathematics should be the fairest subject for selection.


Because if you can, you can; if you can’t, you can’t.
Math is different from Chinese, history, and geography.
You say, my family is well-off, so I can hire a tutor and take extra classes.
Sorry, the results are minimal—useful, but not much.
Switch to a different question format, and you might not understand it.
Why, then, is it fair for selection?
Because for someone from a poor background, without the support of tutors, math can still be done well.
Even if you’ve never seen it before, you can still derive it.
This has nothing to do with what formulas or theorems you’ve learned.
It’s just your thinking and logic.
Cultivating this takes a lot of effort, so it can only be used as a screening tool.
—Back then, vocational schools forced everyone to learn math, no matter whether you were arts or sciences; at the time, people didn’t understand. After you got out and applied for jobs, you only then discovered that this was a selection mechanism.
