When passing an exam becomes the main entry point to the world of money and riches and that certification can be had by cheating, then people go all out to get by any means possible. \u00a0This story of HI-Tech cheating methods being used in a MBBS Medical school exams in AP is just mind-boggling. \u00a0The extent to which these guys go \u2013 preparing the equipment and then practicing on for months to get it right.. is just amazing\u2026 and extremely sad.<\/p>\n

Invigilators of the\u00a0Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences\u00a0(RGUHS) were recently flummoxed by the innovative cheating manner of\u00a0an MBBS student. The student had worn a custom-made shirt fitted with devices like a lapel mike and an electric circuit inside the collar. And his answers were being transmitted from Hyderabad.<\/p>\n

Last week,\u00a0the University\u00a0nabbed another student, in his final year MBBS, who had a similar hi-tech copying device fitted into his vest.<\/p>\n

Custom-made shirts fitted with button scanners and lapel mikes, mobile phones without the outer shell and a scanner in the finger ring are some of\u00a0the devices\u00a0used for cheating during\u00a0MBBS exams\u00a0in the state. And how much do these students spend on the equipment? Nearly Rs 1.9 lakh.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring investigation we found that the shirts\/vests are shared by students for a price. The answers are transmitted from hostels and sometimes from other cities. Often if there is a problem during transmission,\u00a0the students\u00a0get nervous. Their body language gives them away,\u201d the officials said.<\/p>\n

What has shocked the officials is the painstaking planning that goes before execution. \u201cStudents told us they rehearsed the entire process for more than a month before the examinations to ensure nothing goes wrong,\u201d RGUHS registrar\u00a0N S Ashok Kumar\u00a0told TOI.
