Mothers and grandmothers pray for their family members' success in the college entrance examinations, at a Buddhist temple in Seoul Nov 9, 2011. In South Korea there is no higher achievement than to be accepted by a prestigious university. As a result, many students prepare for these entrance exams from an early age, often studying up to 16 hours a day for years to take this test. This government-sponsored scholastic aptitude test will be administered on Nov 10 this year throughout the nation. [Photo/Agencies]
