China's Gaokao examinees with disabilities pursue college dreams with improved assistance
Among the 13-plus million candidates who signed up for this year's college entrance examination nationwide, over 14,000 examinees with disabilities were provided with necessary assistance that ensured them a fair shot to pursue their college dreams.
Also known as gaokao in Chinese, the national examination was held from June 7 to 10.
This year, a total of 16 blind examinees in 12 provinces used customized test papers in Braille, with special test rooms and additional time arranged for their exams. All visually-impaired candidates were allowed to carry Braille pens, writing tablets, drawing tools as well as other assistance devices.
