SOUTH KOREANS ENCOURAGE EXAM TAKERS IN SEOUL.
South Korean high school juniors shout encouragement to their school seniors to do well on their upcoming college entrance exams in Seoul November 18. The result of the examinations will determine which, if any, university a student may attend. In Korea there is no higher achievement than to be accepted by a prestigious university, with the result that all students prepare for these entrance exams from a very early age, often studying up to 16 hours a day for years to write this test.
