Blessings written by Chinese parents to prayer their children for good luck in the upcoming national college entrance exam, also known as gaokao, are hung on trees at the Confucius Temple in Nanjing city, east China's Jiangsu province, 24 May 2018. The countdown for Gaokao, or China's national college entrance examination, has started. In China, gaokao results are the main assessment standard for college admissions. Parents gathered to the Confucius Temple in Nanjing to pray for their kids to have higher scores in the examination. For years, China has awarded extra points to college applicants who win major competitions, which has prompted a boom in math and science training centers. A total of 9.4 million Chinese high school students sat the national college entrance examination in 2017, according to the ministry.
