Watch out! Thai exam cheat triggers phone-watch ban March 15, 2008
Thai students will be barred from wearing watches in national university entrance exams this weekend after a student was caught cheating using a mobile phone wrist watch, Education Ministry officials said on Wednesday, reports Reuters.”Photographs of the phone watch would be sent to exam centers around the country and students would have to rely on wall clocks, they said.
The ban followed invigilators catching a student receiving text messages on his phone watch during a national exam in Bangkok last weekend.
The novel method of cheating was a reflection of the difficulty of earning a university place in a country where some university engineering or medicine departments might take only one in 100 candidates.”
