Art exams are an essential way for many people who want to enter university for further studies. Among the many art schools, there is one that few people know about, which is calligraphy.



Calligraphy, as a symbol of China's excellent traditional culture, has been taught in universities for a long time. However, due to its narrow scope, many people do not have a deep understanding of it.

According to the practice of previous years, the college entrance examination results of various provinces and cities should be released this year. After the test results are released, some people are happy and some are sad, because it is related to whether you can meet the requirements and whether you can be admitted to the corresponding major.

Unlike the college entrance examination, examinations for fine arts majors such as calligraphy and painting are highly authoritative. Therefore, many calligraphy students think that their grades are not good enough, or that this is unfair.



After the results of Shandong's calligraphy art exam came out, several students posted their scores and test papers so that other students could judge whether their scores were appropriate.

First of all, the unified examination subjects of Shandong College Entrance Examination Calligraphy are: 1. Copying and writing, 150 points each, and a total score of 300 points. According to the college entrance examination admission line released by Shandong this year, the undergraduate passing score is 180 points. Among them, the undergraduate and undergraduate passing scores for the 2023 college entrance examination are 180 points respectively.



The student who painted this picture scored a total of 189.8 points in both copying and creation, which was only 0.2 points lower than the undergraduate passing line. It's such a pity.

The student said that he knew he did not do well, but his mock test scores were all around 250 points, which showed that his college entrance examination results did not reflect his true strength.

So, is there something wrong with this candidate's score? From a calligraphy point of view, the characters are written in a standard way. Although not very lively, they are not bad either.



On what basis did the examiner give this painting a lower score? Perhaps the candidates did not know that there were big problems with what they wrote.

The title is a poem from the Qing dynasty poem "Moonlit Night" by Xi Peilan, and the last line reads "The sky is clear and blue, the sky is clear and blue."

How can I possibly get a high score after making such a big mistake?

Let’s take a look at another composition test paper. This composition was written by a repeater.



The score of this paper was only 92.6, and if the carbon copy was included, it would be 226. Last year, his total score was 228. Why did he regress after repeating a year and spending another year practicing calligraphy?

From his overall score for the year, it was clear that his creativity score was very low. His calligraphy had a flavor of Mi Fu, flowing smoothly, and for a high school student, it was already remarkable to be able to achieve this level, so how could he have scored so poorly?



The reason was that there was a typo. The last word in the fourth line should have been "无", but the candidate did not know what it meant.

Obviously, the word "nothing" used by this candidate is a fabricated word, and its source has not been found in any of the calligraphy books or dictionaries of previous dynasties. This may be a major factor in the low score of this novel.



Of course, there are also candidates who got high scores. For example, the calligraphy work below scored more than 140 points, almost full marks. Including this mock exam, her total score is 285.4.



This girl is also a repeater. In last year's calligraphy test, her score in the creative category was only 110. We can find the difference from the works of these two years: the picture above is from 2022, and the picture below is from 2021.



In comparison, the lines are thicker and the structure is more compact, which is a very obvious improvement.

This means that although the calligraphy exam papers are highly subjective, the judges’ judgment is very strong.

If the test results are not good, first find out the reasons from your own homework. However, the college entrance examination is not an easy thing, and every student's efforts are worth it.
