I remember reading last year about the woman in S. Korea that took the written exam
for a drivers license 950 times without passing.

Finally she passed the test.That is what I call perseverance I think that I
 would have given up out of embarrassment long ago if I had failed it
that many times.

With near-daily attempts since April 2005  and spending more

than 5 million won ($4,200) in application fees she passed.

She needed to score the minimum 60 out of a possible 100 points

needed to get behind the wheel for a driving test.

She finally passed the written exam with a score of 60 on Wednesday

Let's wish her luck because now she must pass a driving test to get her license.

 She needs the license for her vegetable-selling business.

Now that is a real never give up attitude.

    IDK, unless there's some issue with her being unable to read I'd feel safer if she didn't drive.

    Huh, that's really interesting.  Hopefully after that much perseverance she passes the behind the wheel driving test.  Although, how come it took her so long to pass the test.  Like Uni mentioned, was she illiterate?

    Queen I do hope this inspire you to not give up on your dream.

    MMM thank you so much, hope you fave a wonderful weekend...

    Uni we know that she can read but I think that she has a problem with 
    understanding or even test fright.

    Hege After spending the time and money invested I hope that she passes with flying colors and will soon be on the road with her vegetables.

    This lady had to be able to read to take the test.

    the first time i read about this my first reaction was WHY.... why did it take so long to pass the test...... and is she really actually safe be driving?
    i guess time will tell if she passes her actual driving test
