Japanese high school entrance test

There had to be over 1000 kids in line to get in to take that high school entrance test today, at over 200 bucks a head, 200,000 dollars easy, just to permit the best of them to enter.  Some racket this education biz.  Of course the best of them are using this school as a back up, and although the school got their 200, they will not see any tuition from the best of them.
