Question of the day

Editor's note: During the annual sessions, China Daily will collect questions foreign netizens care most about and solicit answers from experts, CPPCC National Committee members and NPC deputies.

How and why is China carrying out reform of the gaokao, the National College Entrance Exam?

I have participated in the whole reform process for the gaokao, which is taken by more people than any other examination in the world. Every year, more than 9 million candidates sit the test, and it enjoys a high degree of credibility.
