Rank names used in pre-modern Chinese education


Recommended Posts

Posted

Does anyone know what the names are for the various ranks/stages of qualifications in pre-modern China's education system? I am only familiar with the term 秀才 xiu-cai. If anyone can give me the ranks in ascending order, that would be great. Thanks!

清朝时,情况大致如下(其实明朝也差不多):

1. 童生通过县考、府考、院考后,叫秀才。

2. 秀才才有资格参加三年一次的乡试,考试地点在省城,考中的秀才叫举人。考上第一名的举人叫“解元”。

3. 乡试的第二年就举行会试,地点在北京贡院。会试的第一名叫“会元”。

4. 最后是殿试。考中的叫“进士”。进士的前三名叫:状元、榜眼、探花。

详细资料请参考->
