A record 10.78 million students around China are expected to take the all-important national college entrance exam this year, or gaokao, from June 7 to June 8, Xinhua News Agency reported on June 2.

The number marks a slight increase from 10.71 million last year. The number of test centers and monitors has also increased, Xinhua said. 

The gaokao was postponed for a month to July 7 and 8 last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
