The ancient examination system, generally speaking, was separated into the provincial level exam, the doctoral exam and the final, imperial exam. After passing the provincial exam, most people would need a person to recommend them in order to continue on and take the higher level exam. Therefore, the people taking the test became known as 'recommended scholars'. People of particularly excellent talent, became known as 'exemplary scholars'.
