what a person he is?

I happened to meet my friend in Florida one day. When I was with him, I saw a person from Asian country. I m totally surprised of that man when I saw his mark sheet. I saw it for few seconds since he kept it near my table .In that mark sheet, the person has completed his engineering studies. I think he is from china. He's a china man. He had failed many times in his subjects during his studies. At last he wrote all the failed papers at once and cleared all of them within 20 days. He wrote totally 24 papers within those 20 days and cleared them all. I was so much surprised of it.
