China CRIENGLISHA ten-year old boy formally registered as a student in an engineering college in the city of Tianjin on Saturday.
The Beijing Youth Daily reports that Zhang Xinyang, who is from the northeastern Liaoning province, is the youngest participant in this year's college entrance examination in the country.
Since Zhang Xinyang is much younger than average students, the college is allowing his father to accompany him while he is studying and has opened a special dorm for the father and son.
An official from the college admitted it would be a challenge to give appropriate education to Zhang Xinyang , especially regarding how to cater for his outstanding ability while providing a reasonably normal environment for a ten year old boy.
This summer, China saw a record high of 8.7 million participants taking the college entrance examination. The average admittance rate is normally less than 60%.
