Education in India must be cutthroat
The photo above is of parents and friends trying to pass cheat sheets to students taking 10th-grade examinations. If the students fail the exams, their education stops. So, the pressure to pass is very high. 6 million parents and others accompanied the students to the examination centers. The authorities posted police at all schools where examinations were being held.
About 600 high school students were expelled for cheating on the exams. Given that 1,400,000 students took the exam, that's not very many cheaters. It's the parents climbing the walls that is truly bizarre.
