China’s nationwide college entrance exam, known as the Gaokao, got underway on Friday. Heavy rain hit Yushan County, Shangrao City in east China’s Jiangxi Province, during morning rush hour. /VCG Photo
That also caused some trouble for the test takers who were making their way to the exam sites in Yushan No.1 High School. /VCG Photo

More than 10 million students are expected to take the life-changing test this year – the highest number since 2010. To minimize disturbance to examinees, authorities across China have taken various measures such as maintaining traffic order and providing emergency medical care. /VCG Photo
