This mostly consists of long sections of bulleted lists with very little actual article text (counter to WP:USEPROSE, part of WP:GACR 1). There exist paragraphs and even a whole section ("Interview") without sources, and most sources are primary (GACR 2). Immediately after being nominated, big chunks of this article were deleted as a copyvio (the copyvio itself is no longer a problem, but this is an issue for stability, GACR 5). Much of the content consists of tables of unnecessary detail, such as the precise marks needed to pass in each different year (GACR 3). There are no images — perhaps it is difficult to arrange permissions, but images of candidates taking the examination would be a very natural thing to include in the article (GACR 6). I don't have anything to say re neutrality (GACR 4), but I conclude that this is a long way from meeting most of the GA criteria, and was unready for this nomination. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:00, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
