Involution is used by young Chinese people to describe an irrational or involuntary competition. This kind of involution occurs when Chinese students gain entry to postgraduate programmes. This article analyses the inequalities that exist when Chinese students sit for the Postgraduate Entrance Examination with regard to educational opportunities, processes and outcomes, and suggests that the involution among Chinese youth is a product of these inequalities
