Policy-based bonus points in college entrance examination ...

Policy-based bonus points, that is, college entrance examination bonus points policy, is a bonus point policy for special students in college entrance examination, which is mainly formulated to make up for some defects in the enrollment system of colleges and universities.

The policy of extra points in college entrance examination refers to the policies formulated by the central and local education authorities and universities according to the candidates' race, identity, moral, intellectual and physical performance, competition awards, social contributions and other factors. The college entrance examination undertakes the functions of selecting talents for colleges and universities, promoting quality education in middle schools, and maintaining social fairness and stability, but it cannot comprehensively examine the moral character, emotion, personality and practical ability of candidates. It is an important supplement to the college entrance examination system to give extra points to candidates who have made outstanding achievements in moral quality, personality specialty and social contribution.

China's college entrance examination bonus policy can be divided into the following three categories:

The first category of bonus points mainly includes ethnic minority students, children of martyrs, overseas Chinese, students from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and those who apply for universities in hard industries such as agriculture, forestry, geology and mineral resources.

The second category of bonus points includes the winners who participated in the Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition or the National Middle School Students' Subject Olympic Competition in the high school stage, the winners who won major international sports competitions or national sports competitions in the high school stage, those who won the title of national second-class athletes (inclusive) or above, those who won the title of outstanding students and outstanding student cadres, those who have outstanding deeds in ideological and political morality in the high school stage (mainly those who are brave), retired soldiers who have won military exploits, and those who have been commended by the government;

The third category is the policy of adding extra points to the college entrance examination according to the needs of special periods, regions or departments, such as the children of medical staff during the SARS period, the children of immigrants in the Three Gorges reservoir area, and the children of expert doctoral students.
