Construction stops, planes are rerouted, police escort students through traffic, all for a single exam that will shape the rest of their lives. From a Western point of view, the reaction is instant: this is cruel, no child should carry that. And yet the students coming out of this system dominate every global ranking there is. In this video we go past the outrage. How does this machine actually work, from China's gaokao factories to the high-tech classrooms most Westerners have never seen? Why did so many different societies, with different governments and histories, all land on the same brutal answer? And what happens when you put their results side by side with the West's? #asia #education #school #china
