Google China’s Universities Overview tool

The Chinese Google Rebang site — a listing of hot searches as well as a general info directory — provides a new research tool for prospective university students in China. The tool is called Gaokao Zhuanti, which can be roughly translated to ‘Special Subject: College Entrance Examinations.’

The idea is that graduating high school students who take the national exam (GaoKao) in June can take their score sheets and start to evaluate their scores. Then they compare their scores with the requirement of each institution in the past and choose which one they want to go. Basically, better institutions require higher scores.

This may not be the ideal system simply because the true scores are not given and each institution remains unclear till they know how many students are applying and what their scores are. However, it is the best available.
