Dean Fang stared at Song Ning, blinking again and again.
He began to doubt his own ears...
This child... this child didn't want to study?!
Why take the university entrance exam if she didn't want to study?!
What had she come here for?
Was she deliberately trying to cause trouble?!
Seeing Dean Fang's expression darken, Song Ning knew she was in trouble!
She quickly stood at attention, gave a proper bow, and declared loudly:
"Reporting, sir! I-I didn't express myself clearly just now! I'm eager to throw myself into the great work of revolutionary construction as soon as possible! To serve the people as soon as possible!
"So... I have two wishes! First, to obtain my Medical Practice Qualification as soon as possible! Second, to graduate as soon as possible!
"I beg the university to let me exchange my previous military merits for an opportunity to be assessed! I hope the university will assess me by the strictest standards. Whether those are the standards for an Outstanding Graduate or an Outstanding Practicing Physician, I'm willing to accept them!"
After speaking, she stole a glance at Dean Fang and felt that his expression seemed to have softened a little.
Only then did she continue loudly, "If I can meet the standards of a practicing physician and those of an Outstanding Graduate, I ask the university to consider issuing me proof of my Physician qualification! Or consider shortening the duration of my studies and other related arrangements! Thank you, sir!"
With that, she gave another proper bow.
In those days, there were no medical practitioner licenses, nor was there a unified national examination for physicians.
The most conventional way to become a doctor was to earn admission to the appropriate school.
Graduates of university medical programs could be classified directly as Physicians.
