Cruise Ship Special Test

The Cruise Ship Special Test is the second and final summer special exam administered by the faculty and staff of Advanced Nurturing High School at their special cruise ship, Speranza. It mainly aims to assess and hone the ability of freshman students to think critically, analyze the situation at hand and resolve the given problem. The ability to work creatively with imagination and work determinedly towards resolving the problem, such traits will also become vital for this task. This test happened three days right after the Deserted Island Special Test and spanned for about three days.

Administrators

 * To ensure a balanced and fair grouping of all students

Participants
Freshman students are divided into groups of 13 (with varying no. of individuals from four class) thus completing the twelve symbolic zodiac groups. The VIP is determined by a logical rule: When the surnames of the group members are arranged in the phonetic chart, the VIP has the same order of the animal they were assigned to in the Chinese zodiac.
