NTU accounting exam answers leaked
By Jane Ng
ANSWERS for an accountancy exam at the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) were posted on the school's website days before the exam, a student claimed.
A lecturer was notified by a student on Wednesday after the exam, that some coursemates had seen the answers online.
Some of the 350 second-year students taking the Accounting Measurement And Disclosure paper are believed to have brought the answers along for the exam, as they were allowed to bring their textbooks in.
But whether they used the answers, which did not come with the questions, is not clear.
Some apparently did not realise it was for the exam they were sitting for.
Exam answers are typically sent to the university's office of academic studies for safe-keeping after lecturers come up with them.
The university is investigating the incident and had not decided if students will need to retake the test.
For full report, see Friday's edition of The Straits Times.
