Technical Secondary School Entrance Exam
The year I took the technical secondary school entrance exam, a preselection system was in place.
Fortunately, I passed the preselection exam, and about 23 students from my middle school did too.
The formal technical secondary school entrance exam was held in the county town, more than 30 kilometers from my hometown, so we had to take a bus to get there.
The school where we took the exam had classrooms similar to those in our middle school: one‑story brick buildings with tiled roofs, with three rooms opening into one another.
The examinees were from different middle schools in the county, so we didn’t know each other.
During the exam, we sat with an empty seat between us, in a staggered arrangement. There were three invigilators in the room: one at the front, one at the back, and one in the middle.
We couldn’t cheat. Even if we could have, we wouldn’t have dared, because our scores would have been cancelled.
I was lucky. In late August, the results were released, and I got in with the highest score in my school.

This is correct but a little confusing. "in the county town" may be understood to mean there is only one town in the whole county.

When I say "county town," I mean the town where the county government is located. In Chinese, it means "县城." The county where I live usually has around thirty towns, but only one of them is the county town. Thank you very much.

The meaning of "the county town" is a little unclear here - the regional/state capital? I think this phrase could be changed to something a bit clearer.
