Unless I am mistaken, this school is nearly impossible to gain entrance. Entry is dependent solely on the results of a nationwide test and only the top thousand or so are accepted. Having achieved acceptance under such rigorous rules and then fail could have serious emotional consequences even for well balanced individuals. In many instances, these students have spent years preparing for that single examination and acceptance. If students in the US had only one tenth of such commitment to education, education in this country would not be in such dire straits.
