(Society)”Controversy over leaking essay questions” at Yonsei University, “I will not consider a new test.”

(Anchor)
The school drew the line that this was not true when it was alleged that the tests were distributed in advance at the Yonsei University writing test site and that the problem was leaked in advance.The photo of the questionnaire posted on

online community was illegally taken over after the testing ended, and it is said that there was no harm to justice in the testing process.

I’ll connect you to a reporter.

Reporter Yoon Woong-sung, what is the position of Yonsei University?

(Reporter)
Yonsei University said in a statement last night that the claim that the problem was leaked in advance of the writing test on the 12th is not true.It is true that the supervisor confused the time in the

testing site and distributed the questionnaire in advance, but were unable to share it online because the electronic device was turned off and placed in a bag.

A photo of the questionnaire posted on some Internet sites said that the issue was leaked before the test began, explaining that the illegally captured files appeared to have been shared since the end of the test.

As a basis for this, I heard that the signs that were marked incorrectly in the questionnaire were corrected and that there were traces of resolution of them.

As there is evidence of correction of signs and resolution of problems as instructed 30 minutes before the end of the test, it was not filmed in advance, but after the end of the test.

Therefore, the school explained that it is not thinking about carrying out a new test because there is no prejudice to justice.

Does the controversy continue even with Yonsei University’s explanation?

(Reporter)
That’s right. Even after Yonsei University’s explanation, there were a series of articles alleging injustice in the student community.

Firstly, it should be noted that the fact that the test questions were distributed in advance, even by mistake, gave someone more time to solve them.

It also criticizes that, even though it was not a pre-trial, the fact that the questionnaire and answer sheet were collected using a cell phone before collection shows that the management of electronic devices was poor throughout the test period.

Experts have also expressed the opinion that if it is confirmed that some test participants noticed the problem in advance, they will need to retake the test.

Let’s hear it for ourselves.

(Im Seong-ho / CEO of Jongno Academy: Even though it has been released for a short period of time, re-examination is inevitable because some parts that may be very useful for certain test takers can be judged by looking at the question.)

The Ministry of Education said essay tests are conducted by individual universities on their own, but it is watching the actions of Yonsei University.

He also added that other universities intend to request thorough management so that similar controversies are not repeated.
