Thirdly, 60% of the test in the first grade test, 48% of which in the second grade, and 8% of which in the third grade test are accepted. It means that the third grade has a very poor difficulty index. Fourthly, a good discrimination index of the test in the first grade is 76%, second grade is 56%, and the third grade is 72%.
