Nearly half of the students, specifically 49.82%, secured a spot in their first-choice high school, a significant achievement in a competitive academic landscape.
Overall, the admission rate for the general entrance exam was exceptionally high, with 98.43% of the 6,226 applicants being accepted out of the 8,030 available slots.
