Students try to trick their way into university

According to the Shanghai Daily, this Sunday, over 500 students tried to use false admission notices to register at Shanghai Normal University's school of mathematics and science. As the school denied having issued any admission notices at all, there was little doubt about the authencity of their documents: "The university authority was quite confused by the sudden influx of 'check-in' students," said one of the university's publicity officials. "It is almost impossible for a single school to enroll so many students at a time, let alone unqualified ones". This attempt says quite a lot about the desperate measures a failed gaokao, university admission test, can lead to.
