Cambridge to accept gaokao 

Reports of the University of Cambridge starting to accept China's gaokao scores for students wishing to join its undergraduate courses went viral online over the weekend. The university responded on Monday through its official Sina Weibo account, saying its policy to accept gaokao scores for Chinese applicants has been in place for several years. According to the official website of the university, the gaokao is regarded as suitable preparation for Cambridge. The gaokao scores of successful applicants will vary from province to province and year to year. As a guideline, successful applicants will usually have scores in the top 0.1% of those taking the gaokao in their province. Cambridge had 420 undergraduate and 754 postgraduate students from China in the 2017-18 academic year.
