Man fails school exams for the 38th time
JAIPUR, India (Reuters) - A 73-year-old Indian farmer who vowed not to marry before passing his high school exams has failed to get through for the 38th time.
Shiv Charan Yadav has been taking the exams -- normally given to schoolchildren at the age of 15 -- every year since 1969, without success.

I suggest him to go on taking the exam , go go go for the target.
If not, the previous 38 times will become meaningless.
