Wireless Earpieces
Candidates for China's notoriously competitive civil service exams have been caught using high-tech wireless earpieces in a bid to cheat their way to success.
State media said the 1,000 people caught cheating this year represented the largest number ever for the exam.
Cheating during tests is common in the country of 1.3 billion people, where pressure to pass competitive national exams for entrance to universities and civil service jobs is intense. About 9.5 million young people take college entrance exams each year, but only one in four are eligible for college enrolment.
The cheats had people feeding them information through wireless mini earplugs, and bought standard answers for the exams from outside companies, the official Xinhua News Agency cited the State Administration of Civil Service as saying.
