Poor students in ancient times studied hard for decades just to get the list. Was the ancient champion very knowledgeable?

In fact, the knowledge level of the top scholars in ancient China is not very high, because China's ancient science and technology is relatively backward, so it is precisely because of this that they are often headed by liberal arts. Therefore, the ancient champions are often liberal arts champions who have read ancient books and books, but their knowledge of science is almost negligible. Therefore, simply looking at the top scholar in ancient times from the perspective of modern people may be similar to the level of college students or above, but considering that ancient science and technology are relatively backward and economic development is relatively poor, it is naturally impossible to achieve universal education. Therefore, compared with most ordinary people, the number one scholar in ancient times was naturally not higher than one or two grades, so it is precisely because of this that we can think about the problem from the following aspects.

1, a poor student in ancient times, studied hard for decades just to get back on the list. This is also the true voice of most students, and for us, the person who can win the prize is naturally the elite of the elite. In fact, I have to say that in ancient times, poor students really had to bear great psychological pressure and economic burden after studying hard for decades. Studying hard 10 years is only a reflection of the real life of most poor students, but in real life, we will find that the probability of poor students being elected is not very high, so it is naturally the elite who can be re-elected.

2. From the social perspective, China was an agricultural society in ancient times, and its technology was relatively backward. Most of the champions were liberal arts champions with little knowledge of science. In fact, from the social level, China ancient society was a backward agricultural society, and because of this, despite some remarkable achievements in science and technology, most of the ancient champions were indeed liberal arts champions, so their knowledge and cultural knowledge were not very high, but they were indeed outstanding compared with the whole society, so relatively speaking, the ancient champions must also be talents at that time.

3. Measuring the knowledge level of the top scholars in ancient times by the knowledge reserve level of modern people can really be understood as the current level of college students, but this statement is incorrect. In fact, what we want to talk about is how high the learning level of the ancient top scholars is, which also depends on the social environment and social culture at that time. For us, the four books and five classics and ancient classic literary works are what the ancient champions need to learn and master. In today's social development, we will find that most of the education has lacked the education of China's traditional excellent culture, so this leads to the fact that although contemporary college students have received higher education, their real learning level is not comparable to that of the top scholars in ancient times.

In fact, I have to say that in ancient times, people studied hard for decades just to re-rank, which is indeed the voice of most people. For us, it is impossible to measure how high the knowledge level of the top scholars in ancient times is. Considering the social environment and the level of science and technology at that time, the knowledge reserve of the top scholars in ancient times was not very high, but it is undeniable that they must be the elites in society at that time.
