Ge took part in the composing and designing process of the mathematics paper of the National College Entrance Examination for several times. The papers of the year 2003, 2010[1][2] and 2012[3] were regarded as “extremely difficult” by examinees. As a result, he is called "the Emperor of Mathematics" (Chinese: 数学帝) by netizens in China. Some media also use this nickname.[4]
Composing of the mathematics papers
[edit]The 2003 mathematics examination paper composed by Ge Jun averaged only 68 (out of 150).

In 2012, he joined the composing process of the mathematics paper following the new curriculum standard and the paper was once more considered difficult by examinees.
Since 2011, whenever a difficult mathematics examination paper occurs in China, its composers will be human flesh searched by netizens.

Evaluations of the mathematics papers of college entrance examination composed by Ge Jun were mixed. For instance, experts believe that the paper was innovative, differentiated, and appropriate while many students and their parents were apparently dissatisfied because of the low marks examinees received.
