Written exam


 * On Sunday, all Order candidates gathered in the lecture hall for the written exam.
 * Lorec explains that there are five spots available and cheers on everyone to do their best.1
 * The written exam is a means to weed out weaker candidates.
 * Those who fail to reach the needed criteria will be rejected without being able to participate in practical exams.
 * They will have another chance in the following year to apply again.
 * The written exam tests basic understanding of academy rules.
 * In game, the player was given multiple choices.
 * [Easy] Question 2: List three acceptable penalties for being late in the morning.
 * [Difficult] Question 13: Explain the meaning of paragraph 21 of the academy rules "Monster subjugation duty"
 * Apparently, questions like these are written in an awkward way that most internal students are comfortable with but new students will trip over.
 * The outside admission students are at the most disadvantage for having the least experience with any of these rules.
 * But these same students had the most advantage due to experiences when it came to practical questions.
 * [Application] Question 18: You took over a job of your predecessor. Which of the following tasks do you prioritize?
 * Reconfirmation of the job specifics
 * Coordinating with the superior
 * Processing petitions from the students
 * Contacting outsiders


 * Rei has spent enough time playing the actual otome game that she has memorized all the questions.
 * Despite her uncertainty of scoring higher than Claire, she is at least confident she will pass this section.
 * So much so, that she double checks her answers which was different from the first competition.
 * The written results are then posted in the afternoon and the practical exam will start shortly afterwards.
 * Despite Claire's confidence, Rei makes a comment how stress could have made Claire mismark her answers by one spot.
 * This cracks her confidence and she begins to worry.
 * Claire waves this off and tells Rei that they're going to eat lunch to which Rei believes she's being asked on a date.
 * After a light lunch with Lene, they returned to a crowded notice board.
 * Rei uses the François name to make her way through in a surprisingly effective fashion.
 * Claire complained at how easy Rei was using her name.
 * Written Exam Results:
 * 1st place: Rod Bauer
 * 2nd place: Yuu Bauer
 * 3rd place: Claire François
 * 4th place: Rei Taylor
 * 5th place: Misha Yule
 * 6th place: Sein Bauer
 * For the practical exam, the number of candidates has been cut to 20.
 * The princes come to congratulate the Rei's group.
 * Sein looked bothered by placing the lowest.
 * Misha wishes Rei would have failed.
 * She's also confident in that she would have passed.
 * If Rei's prior knowledge is considered an unfair advantage, Misha studied well enough for an outside admission student to rank so high.
 * They agree that with around 30 examinees failing and the written being basic, it meant that the Order would probably be more difficult than they imagined.
 * The practical exam candidates are then summoned to the sports grounds.
 * Lorec essentially manages the entire process from recruitment to examination and established this procedure as a kind of tradition.
 * More often, the leader is at least expected to conduct the selection exam.
 * Rei almost can't hide her excitement as she knows what's in store for the next exam.
 * Her plan is to enjoy Claire as much as she can.
 * 1: This has a consistency issue that will be mentioned in a future part.
