Seventy-three-year-old Shiva Charan Yadav is gearing up for his 39th shot at passing his high school exam. Thirty ninth. The determined farmer in Kohari, India, has been slugging away at the exam since 1969 in the western desert state of Rajasthan.
His motivation?
“Once I pass I want to get married to a girl who’s under 30,” Yadav told Reuters.
He passes the Sanskrit part of the test but says arithmetic is just beyond him.
Male >70 seeks female <30.
I’d say Yadav has a good bead on his math problem.
