• 有点天才/天赋的应该做一些最尖端的科技，不应该只是为了T5 或爬藤而爬藤。奥数搞了半天，就是为了爬藤，爬完就完？ -评论2012- ♀ (0 bytes) () 01/02/2019 postreply 22:13:43

• 现在T5和牛校对这些奥数之类不感冒，原因估计收了这些娃们，本来是为了最尖端科技，最后都没有。那这些竞赛成绩又有何指针意义？ -评论2012- ♀ (0 bytes) () 01/02/2019 postreply 22:19:53

• 如果这样就测个智商，看一下天才程度就行。根据天才程度Ｔ５收人就行。Ｔ５根据这些竞赛成绩收人有何意义？ -评论2012- ♀ (0 bytes) () 01/03/2019 postreply 01:13:39
