Dental student burns to death after arriving late for exam
[RT] The pressure of medical school is world renowned - and one dental student in Pakistain may have succumbed to it in the most violent way.

Abdul Basit, who was in his final year at Hamdard University in Bloody Karachi
...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous...
, died early Tuesday morning from burns he suffered after reportedly setting himself on fire because he was unable to sit an exam he failed seven times before.

He was apparently late after his car broke down.

Distraught over this rejection, the university says he doused himself in petrol and lit himself on fire. He died at a nearby hospital with burns over 95 percent of his body.
