56-year-old Fails China's College Entrance Exam for 27th Year.

Liang Shi, a 56-year-old man from Sichuan, China, has taken the country's grueling college entrance exam, known as the "gaokao," 27 times over the past 40 years, but has yet to achieve a high enough score to enter a top university. Despite studying hard for the exam, Liang's score this year was lower than the previous year, leaving him disappointed and considering giving up. The gaokao is notoriously difficult, with pressure piled on students who spend months in advance cramming for the exam.
