Test takers "It's a leak of questions." vs Yonsei University "I can't undermine the fairness of the exam." [Anchor Report]

There is a sharp disagreement between the test takers and Yonsei University over the controversy over the leakage of essay questions.

Let me point out the main issues of this situation.

First of all, it's a mobile phone management issue.

The original questionnaire, which is believed to have been taken on the day of the test, was posted on the Internet,
The key is whether you were able to use your phone even after receiving the
test paper.

Yonsei University said it has controlled students to turn off their phones autonomously and put them in their bags.

Based on this, it is argued that it was impossible to share the questions during the test, but the test takers are different.

They were not forced to roll up their phones, so they could take them out of the bag and use them if they wanted to avoid the supervisor's eyes.

In fact, this argument has been bolstered by the release of "certification shots" that appear to have taken pictures of answer sheets and test papers around 1 p.m., about an hour before the start of the essay exam.

The reason some students were able to get questions an hour earlier was reportedly due to some supervisors mistaking the test time.

However, Yonsei University explained that even if the questionnaire was received early, the examinee could not check the problem because they controlled it to be covered with a practice sheet.

Test takers are also disputing this.

Some students claimed that they received the questionnaire around 12:50 p.m., saying they could check the questionnaire with a small lift.

Even considering the school's position that it was recovered at 1:10 at the latest, it was able to check the problem for at least 20 minutes.

The key is whether it can be seen as a problem leak.

On the day of the test, some online communities posted articles explaining the contents of questions such as "There is a rectangular picture that divides four squares."

The school explained that such an article simply described the impression, and that this alone could not grasp the whole problem.

However, the test takers said the question was similar to the question that was also given in last year's essay test,

He stresses that the problem has been leaked and should be seen because a simple explanation can tell what type the test takers are.

With the repercussions growing day after day, Yonsei University nailed that there would be no retesting.

However, the controversy is expected to continue as test takers are strongly protesting that the fairness of the test has already been damaged.
