SEVEN students have been caught cheating with high-tech devices in this year's annual national college entrance exam in northwest China's Gansu Province.
To prevent the discovery from disturbing other students, an investigation was launched after they completed the exam, the education authority of Jingyuan County, Baiyin City told Xinhua news agency today.
The seven students were caught during the exams on Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning at three test sites. High-tech cheating tools in the shape of rulers, watches and earphones were found on the students. They will get zero in the test.
Police later caught another three people selling test-cheating devices.
The three-day national exam ended today.
Meanwhile, police in central China's Hubei Province have cracked down on a gang that planned to cheat the national college entrance test, Xinhua reported.
Police said it was tipped off that the gang was planning a scam at a hotel in Honghu City. They caught four members testing equipment last Friday and seized 11 sets of cheating devices valued around 100,000 yuan (US$14,642).
The members told police that a postgraduate surnamed Zhou had worked out the scheme and bought the equipment. He then got a college freshman surnamed Shi in Wuhan, Hubei's capital city, and a teacher surnamed Yang to sell the devices to test sitters at 2,000 yuan a set.
The test sitters agreed to pay them another 5,000 yuan if the scam succeeded, the report said.
