Twin brothers in southeastern China have captivated social media after scoring 666 points in the crucial national college entrance examination and being admitted to the same programme at the same university.
People online have described the twins, Zeng Zichong and Zeng Ziyi, from Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, as having achieved "god-level synchronicity".
The pair have never been separated since kindergarten.
The older brother, Zichong, said that his name symbolises "a bird soaring into the sky", while his younger brother's name means "to assist and help".
It reflects the hope of their parents that the brothers would always support each other.
In junior high school, their academic performance was nearly the same, and both were admitted to Hangzhou Xuejun High School.
When the results of the Chinese national college entrance examination, or gaokao, were released, the twins were out taking driving lessons.
It was their father who first saw the score notifications on his phone.
Their mother quickly shared the coincidence in the family group chat, leaving even the brothers themselves astonished.
"At first, we could not believe it. It was not until we checked it several times that we realised we had actually got the same score!" the pair said.
The twins are also known for their shared interests as they both enjoy playing video games, watching television, and often visiting the library together.

Zichong excels in Chinese and English, while Ziyi shines in mathematics and physics. They often support each other by explaining complex concepts.
Their shared passion for computer science and artificial intelligence also led them to apply for, and ultimately be admitted to, the same university programme.
That course is the Engineering Experimental Class (Computer Science and Technology) at the famous Xi'an Jiaotong University in Shaanxi province, northern China.
Zichong said he chose the university because of its rich legacy and strong academic reputation, while Ziyi added that he was also drawn to the university because Xi'an is a city full of cultural charm.
On July 25, the university's official social media account congratulated the brothers.
"This incredible synchronicity is not only fate but a testament to their strength. We look forward to seeing the brothers chase their dreams side by side and shine even brighter," the university's post said.
The brothers plan to continue walking the same path.
