NMET， it may be a new word to most. But if we put it “College Entrance Examination”， it will be familiar to most of us， who have had bone-biting experience and sweet memory of having had it and enjoying a relatively successful and full life.

NMET is the most important way of choosing wise heads both in history and at present. Maybe it is because it’s harder to invent a new way that NMET will still be playing an important part in the education in China. No matter how well you are doing and how good you are at your schooling， the last 3 or 4 days， the 7 sets of paper work and your final scores will give you the “final sentence”.

Those lucky ones would be enjoying the fruitful rewards while the other fellow students would have to take in bitter and tearful results as if they had done nothing during the previous years. It is the same with their parents. Even worse， our society is now in the habit of making favorable judgment over those lucky ones without showing enough care to the failed ones. In this way those who failed are under pressure beyond their ability to bear， which will naturally lead to some tragedies（悲剧）after the public announcement of the NMET results.

I can’t predict anything but I really wish all the NMET takers could get a satisfactory result. I call on more care from parents and the society about those who need our care. Though we have no way to have the system changed， we can still do something to change what we can change.

One door closes， another window opens. So long as you are on the track and spare no effort， there should be a bright future not far ahead of you.
