A 10-year-old boy from Northeast China's Liaoning Province is tipped to
become the country's youngest college student, after he did well on the National
College Entrance Examinations (NCEE) earlier this month.
Zhang Xinyang, 10-year-old, scored 505 points
in 2005 college entrance examination and is qualified enough of the
mark to enter into the college he applied.

Zhang Xinyang, from Panjin City,
scored 505, 47 points higher than local minimum enrollment mark for colleges.
According to Tianjin University of Technology and Education, the college
Zhang applied to enter, Zhang will most probably be admitted if everything goes
well, although his performance in Chinese and math disciplines was not so
desirable.
At present, Feng Hao from Yue-yang City, Central China's Hunan Province,
holds the record for the youngest college student after he was admitted by Hunan
University in 2000 at the age of 12.
Zhang finished the six-year primary school education in two years and
three-year junior high school education in another two years to graduate in
2004.
He quit to prepare for this year's NCEE at home in October 2004, one month
after being in the third year of a senior high school.
