Isn't this essentially what everyone does? We all go to school from grade school to high school (or their locally named equivalents) for about 11 years before our senior/graduation year. All 11 of those years are meant to be building you up to be able to pass those college entrance tests.

> It was the student’s final attempt on Monday to clear the exam after repeatedly failing it since getting admission into the college 11 years ago

Strongly implies it was 11 years in the same college.

I'm just thinking if you spent 11 years and still haven't graduated, maybe it's not for you. If you can't pass the exam, you don't know the material, and you probably shouldn't pursue this career.

Easier said than done. Never mind the sunk costs, what are the local career prospects for a failed year 11 college student?

Paraphrasing an old joke, what do you call a medical student who graduated by cheating on the exams?

"Doctor"
