Exam results for nine million Chinese

For more than nine million high school students in China, Tuesday is a big day.

They'll get the results of their exam known as the "gaokao" which will determine whether and where they go to university.

The gaokao is controversial for many reasons, but it's also criticised for failing to prepare China's future generation for a modern work life.

There's a worry that the education system isn't preparing students for careers in the private sector and that there are still too few graduate level jobs for the number of graduates looking for work.

On the positive side, more foreign universities are now accepting the gaokao in their admission criteria.

The BBC's correspondent in Beijing, Martin Patience, has been chatting to a couple of students about their thoughts on an exam, which could eventually affect their whole career.
