一批中考高分考生正在改变升学选择。他们主动放弃普通高中，转而选择中本贯通升学路径——这条曾被教育部提议逐步取消的通道如今在广州、上海等地重新升温。[1]这一选择的吸引力在于其确定性：学生完成三年中职学习后，只需通过转段考核就能进入对口本科院校继续学习四年，无需经历高考。[1]
2026年广州中考的数据凸显了这一现象的规模。[1]该年中考满分810分，700分及以上的考生达21387人，约占总考生的14.1%。[1]其中，中本贯通项目的竞争尤为激烈——9542人报考但仅有318个招生名额，报录比约为30:1。[1]广州轻工职业学校中本贯通班的录取最低控制分数线为632分，但该班实际最低分为665分，平均分682分。[1]
个案印证了这种吸引力。中考成绩701分的黄南山选择了轻工职校中本贯通机电技术应用专业。[1]同样，李健乐被广州市交通运输职业学校中本贯通录取，本科阶段进入广州航海学院。[1]这群高分学生用实际选择支持了这条非传统升学道路。
A growing number of high-performing students are deliberately bypassing traditional senior high school to pursue the vocational-to-bachelor pathway, a route once slated for phase-out by China's education ministry but now regaining momentum in cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou [1]. These students are drawn to the certainty the program offers: after completing three years of vocational training, they can transition directly to bachelor's degree study through an assessment exam, eliminating the need to take the grueling college entrance examination [1].
The trend reflects intense competition even among elite test-takers. In Guangzhou's 2026 junior high exam with a maximum score of 810 points, 21,387 students scored 700 or above, representing approximately 14.1% of all candidates [1]. Yet the vocational-to-bachelor program remains highly selective, with only 318 enrollment slots available despite 9,542 applications—a ratio of roughly 30 to 1 [1]. At Guangzhou Lightweight Industry Vocational School, the program's minimum admission score stands at 632 points, though admitted students averaged 682 points, with the lowest accepted score reaching 665 [1]. One such student, Huang Nanshan, scored 701 on the junior high exam but chose to enroll in the school's electromechanical technology program rather than attend a regular high school [1]. Another admitted student, Li Jiangle, gained entry to the vocational-to-bachelor track at Guangzhou Transportation and Logistics Vocational School, which partners with Guangzhou Maritime University for the bachelor phase [1]. Upon completing their three-year vocational courses and passing the transition assessment, students proceed to four years of study at their corresponding bachelor's institution [1].
