Internet Technology by Mobile phone is now HOT and IN to Cheat Exams

Kyoto University case
This time of the year, students who are aiming for higher educational institutes are busy to take entrance exams in Japan. Our school year, the new year, starts in April as many of our Japanese organizations do.

Kyoto University, one of the most prestigeous, reported to their local police that during the examination hours on 25th (mathematics) and 26th (English) someone named 'aicezuki' access a Yahoo site called 'Yahoo Chiebukuro -wisdom pocket' for the answers on the examination questions. And the guy got the best answers for his/her questions at the test room from the outside world using the modern technology, mobile phone.

But the question remains still how he/she could do it. Texting all these questions on the mobile phone takes quite a work but some says for young people it is not so difficult. Yet, how the person managed to escape from the exam patrol? This person must have a special technic and talent as good as to be an intelligence agency/spy.

Not only Kyoto exam but also other tests for Waseda, Rikyo, and Doshisha Universities, the same name guy is reported leaking the questions and receiving answers.

In 2004, Korea experienced the similar cheating scandals on exams and since then mobile phones are banned from the test rooms.

What about in your countries? How do you cheat?
