Panhellenic- exams for admission to tertiary education began today at 08:30 with some 95.000 students taking the test on Modern Greek Language. Education Minister, Evripidis Stylianidis, who visited Pagrati 7th and 28th Lyceums this morning, extended his wishes for good luck to all candidates and underlined that the Education Ministry has taken all necessary measures to safeguard impartiality of exams. Mr. Stylianidis selected to visit this specific school complex, as it had suffered damages from rioters at the beginning of the academic school year. "Willingness to improve education wins over violence", he said. All political parties also extended their wishes for good luck to candidates. The questions of todays exam will be on the Education Ministry website after 09:30.
