The School of Mathematics had scheduled its examinations to start on the 22nd of this month (Thursday) and would continue until the 29th of June, when the last course exam would conclude.
Including elective courses, it was necessary to take nine exams over eight days. The schedule wasn't particularly tight.
But earning a diploma from Huaxia's top-tier university was definitely not an easy feat.
Failing too many courses could indeed lead to an academic warning from the School, and receiving warnings for two consecutive semesters could result in being asked to leave the university.
This was especially true in the School of Mathematics, where almost every academic year, some students would be advised to withdraw.
Thus, the atmosphere in the school immediately became tense.
The tangible manifestations were a quicker pace in class, fewer gossips, and more discussions about study.
Even the cheerful laughter and chatter on campus had diminished considerably.
