KANDAHAR CITY (Pajhwok): Though 4,000 students graduated from high schools last academic year in southern Kandahar province, only 2060 of them sat the university entrance test on Tuesday, officials said.
Of 2140 registered students for the university entry test, 80 were absent from Tuesday’s exam conducted on the Kandahar university campus, the university’s vice-chancellor, Tawab Bala Karzai, told Pajhwok Afghan News. The participants included 230 girls.
Kandahar education director Abdul Qadir Paiwastoon said he was shocked over the participation of only 2060 students . . .
