近日，北京大学在河南省招录“国家专项计划”过程中“退档”两名河南考生受到社会舆论关注。

　　Peking University is supposed to enroll eight impoverished students from Henan province this year. However, the university decided not to enroll the students in the seventh and eighth places because their grades, 542 and 536, respectively, were much lower than the other six students, with the student in sixth place scoring 667 in the college entrance exam.

　　北京大学2019年计划在河南省贫困地区专项招生8人。但是，第7名考生考分为542分，第8名考生考分为536分，远低于第6名考生的667分，因此，北京大学决定对第7名、第8名考生予以退档。

　　The university said it decided not to enroll the two students because "it would be hard for them to complete their studies as their grades were considerably lower than their peers".

　　北大表示，对这两名考生做退档处理是因为“他们的分数明显低于其他同学，入校后极有可能完不成学业”。

　　The university decided to replace the two students, who put Peking University as their first preference in the gaokao application, with other two students who put it as their second preference, but with much higher grades, both achieving 671.

　　对这两名第一志愿考生退档后，北京大学录取了两名第二志愿考生，分数均为671分。

　　对于此次舆论关注的考生“退档”问题，北大招生委员会专门召开专题会议。

　　The university admitted malpractice in student enrollment in the national college entrance exam, or gaokao, on Sunday and decided to re-enroll two students it previously dropped because their grades were considerably lower than others, it said in a statement.

　　北大承认在高考录取过程中存在不合规之处，并在8月11日发布声明决定补录因分数过低而被退档的两位考生。
