Classroom of the Elite: What Is the Event Selection Exam? Explaining This Year's Final Exam!

Share:

If you remember, the third season of Classroom of the Elite started with Volume 8 of the light novel series, i.e., with the Mixed Training Camp event. It later continued, in Volume 10 of the light novel, with the the intriguing Class Poll Exam, which was a very special event that took place in the school and it caused a lot of stir among the students. But, the school year is not over yet and there is one final exam that needs to be passed – the Event Selection Exam! In this article, we are going to tell you all you need to know about the year’s final exam, its structure, and its goals!

  • Article Breakdown:
  • The Event Selection Exam is the final special exam of the current school year in Classroom of the Elite, and the one exam that will determine the final, year-end ratings of the classes.
  • The Event Selection Exam is a complex, multi-part exam that consists of numerous activities whose primary goal is to test the student’s knowledge, physical ability, cooperation, and even their luck.
  • The events in the exam are different and they are chosen by the classes themselves, which complicates things a bit and makes the structure of the exam less predictable.

Explaining the Event Selection Exam

This school year was very complex for the first years of the Advanced Nurturing High School. With a total of three special exams in Season 3, you can understand how much pressure was put on them and how much they actually needed to do over the course of the year. After the Mixed Training Camp Exam, the last one was supposed to be the Event Selection Exam, but due to the student’s success, the Class Poll Exam was organized between these two special exams so that at least some students could end up getting expelled.

Now that that part is over as well, the time for the year’s final special exam – the Event Selection Exam – is finally here. As we’ve said, the Event Selection Exam is a complex exam that has classes competing with each other in pairs. But, the trick was that the classes themselves would determine the events that would be used during the exam. Each class had to prepare a list of 10 unique well-known events with set time limits; no class could register two identical events. If the list was not finalized before the limit, the school would have chosen the events for the class.

The list had to contain five official and five “fake” events; the former were those that the class wanted to participate in, while the latter were there to deceive the opponents, as the list was made public at one point. After the completion of the lists, the school would randomly choose seven events from the lists for each pair and that would be it. Also, the classes themselves would have to make sure that the rules of each event prohibited a tie, as there had to be a winner in each of the events. The basic rules, as stated were:

  1. Each event must require a different number of participants, excluding substitutes.
  2. The minimum number of participants is one and the maximum number is twenty, including those acting as substitutes.
  3. Students can participate in events for a second time, if all of their classmates have participated in at least one event.

Each class also had to appoint one commander, who would be their leader and was also responsible for the organization of the events. Each event was worth 30 points, with the winning class gaining 30 points, while the losing class lost 30 points. The class that wins the whole event also gets an additional 100 points. The total maximum of points a class could gain was, thus, 310, while the maximum number of points lost was 210.

The Structure of the Event Selection Exam

Now that we have given you an overview of the exam itself, let us see what the events of the class actually were. The list is going to be divided by classes and will, sadly, be incomplete, as the series never revealed the complete lists of all the classes. Here they are:
