Man fails school exams for the 38th time

[ChrisChris]

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.

Poor fella :hehe:

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

He should not give up! Who know he might succeed on his 39th try

What an extremely wise man. He should write a book, "How to totally avoid being nagged to death'

This year, he failed everything except Sanskrit, scoring only 103 out of a possible 600 points.

Ouch.
