3000 Students To Resit An Exam After High-Tech Cheating Scam Was Uncovered

3,000 students will need to re-sit an incredibly competitive entrance exam for medical school at Rangsit University in Bangkok, Thailand after a high-tech cheating scam was uncovered.

The university says that three
students were caught filming the exam paper on tiny cameras concealed in their glasses. In a plot like something from "Mission:
Impossible," the video which contained the exam questions was sent to an outside team who solved the questions, and then re-sent the correct answers to three other students' smartwatches.






The Bangkok Post is reporting that the cheating students were on the hook for 850,000 baht (around $24,000) to those forwarding them answers if they passed the exam.

The university's rector, Arthit
Ourairat, publicized the scam on Facebook, where it was shared thousands of times.
