This follows the announcement that third year Diploma in Accounting and Business Studies (DABS) students will have to re-write the economics and taxation and business tests this weekend to make up for the exam that was leaked in May this year, after some students were sold the papers allegedly by some of their lecturers.

Speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of victimisation, a student told the Monitor that a few students were caught revising examination papers that were exactly the same as the ones that were to be written.  The student explained that the results revealed that many students might have had access to the exam paper and therefore they were required to re-sit that test.
