Aug. 13 - About 40 percent of the top students in college entrance examinations have chosen overseas universities for their postgraduate studies, according to a survey.
Most of them have stayed overseas after finishing their intended courses,

Dubbed zhuangyuan,
传奇私服, which means top contestants in the imperial examinations in feudal China, these students have been lauded by the media as examples for their younger peers.
The survey, released on the China Alumni Association website,

The government should find better ways to hold back talented students, said Cai Yanhou, a professor with Central South University in Changsha, capital of Hunan Province.

But Cai, who also led the survey team, said "top in exams" does not necessarily mean "top in career" because the study found none of the top students at college entrance exams had become a top Chinese expert or academic.
The entrance exam is just one of the numerous exams a person will go through in his life and that can't foretell his future achievements, said Wang Xuming, a spokesman for the Ministry of Education. He criticized the media hype over the so-called zhuangyuan.
Some of them are just more adaptable to exam-oriented education than their peers,

The media fill pages and time slots with their "success" stories to gain wider readership and viewership. High schools promote their former students proudly to attract new ones, and universities want to show their superior status by recruiting them, they said.
Wang hoped future reforms would do away with the score-oriented method so that students can be judged from all aspects.
