Terminology

This page will cover various types of terminology found in the You-Zitsu series.

Terms
S-Point (Ｓポイント): Also known as S-System (Ｓシステム) in the anime, S-Point is one of the founding characteristics that largely contributes to the prestige of Advanced Nurturing High School and the promising future of its students. However, the concept of this system has yet to be revealed.

Class Point (クラスポイント): These are evenly given to students in each class and varies between classes, depending on class' performance. Though all the accounted factors are still not clearly exposed, one thing's for sure is that they accumulate through class' effort to improve academic standing. Additionally, these values are announced at the end of each month. However, on the rare case where there's a dispute between classes, their respective class points are on-hold and in-deliberation. One class point equals 100 private points.

Private Point (プライベートポイント): These are the transferable quantitative values that each student possess which can be utilized for transactions, commercial trade, and contract as they are convertible in monetary unit. The value also grows for each student at the start of each month by the factor of 100 to the class points their respective classes hold; which means, if the class maintains 1,000 class points for the whole month, it is expected that each student in that class would have an additional 100,000 private points at the start of the following month. Each point is worth 1 yen in currency.

Special Exam: An exam conducted to determine the class points for each class.

Paper Shuffle (ペーパーシャッフル):

A pair based exam where both participants of a pair are given 50 questions of eight subjects for the total of 400 questions. All subjects will have a minimum standard of 60 points.

There are two ways to fail this exam:


 * If the final grade a pair gets on any one subject is under 60 points, then both members of the pair will be required to drop out. This 60 point threshold is the combined score of both of the two partners.


 * The overall total score will be based on the total score of the pair. Even if one gets above 30 points in all eight subjects, if the pair's overall total points are below the standard, both partners will be expelled.

Each class will also be asked to brainstorm and write their own final exam questions. The questions they write will be the questions on the exam for one of the other three classes. In other words, they will have to launch an "attack" against one of the other classes, and the class that intercepts this attack will have to "defend". The school will compare the overall grades on the finals between the two classes, and the class who wins will receive a total of 50 Class Points from the losing class.

Assessment: Every 1st of July, an interviewer conducts an entrance examination across the campus and the following statistical factors are included in his/her criteria to decide which class the student fits the best.
 * Academic Ability: Academic ability is ranked by education attainment and academic qualifications of the student.
 * Intellect: Intellect is ranked by the performance of the students in written examination and oral interview.
 * Judgment Ability
 * Physical Ability
 * Cooperativeness: Cooperativeness is ranked by the willingness and ability to work with others.
