In India, there is a strong, almost frenzied emphasis put on engineering and medical degrees. After 10th grade, students on track for one of those degrees often attend "dummy schools." They're schools in name only, where the only "teaching" is hours of coaching for the high-stakes exam student will take after completing 12th grade. Ashrita Achar reports from Bengaluru.
