Police asked to investigate suspected Thai university entrance exam cheating
13 Sept 23:26Key points summarised by AI
Police are investigating suspected cheating in a Thai university entrance exam after images of GAT/PAT test papers were posted on the "Snapask" app.
Authorities believe a spy camera (pen or glasses) was used to photograph and wirelessly transmit math and science exam questions to the app.
Despite the incident, no re-examinations will be conducted as it was an individual act, not a widespread leak of papers before the exam.
While cheating is not a criminal offense in Thailand, it violates exam regulations, prompting officials to increase screening for prohibited devices in future exams.
