About recent leakage of SAT materials in Korea

<p>I heard about it last week but did not know it happened not only for May tests but also for January ones. CB is still investigating and all that but has this sort of cheating ever led to cancellation of the entire country's SAT scores? Wouldn't that be a bit unfair for those who weren't even involved and actually study to get scores that they deserve? I'm an international student in korea and I hope you'd give some stories about past incidents and how the CB responded/punished people :/ I did not know where to seek answers from:( thank you.</p>

<p>This is different from the January 2007 SAT scandal:

<p>I was wondering if the students in North Korea take the SAT hahaahha</p>

<p>^ gcf101, how is it different from the 2007 one? is it because the ETS found out before it released the scores out for january 2007?</p>

<p>January 2009 breach has spread into the US and possibly other countries. :eek:</p>

<p>:( well, thank you…I hope ETS doesn’t cancel the scores :/</p>

<p>i was under the impression that this “smuggling” in May only involved the SAT II Subject tests. I am unsure about the January testing, however.</p>

<p>i currently live in seoul and am well aware of this incident.</p>

<p>Agaaaain? Well, I’m glad I took it overseas.</p>

<p>I took the May and Jan tests in Korea too, I blame Korean Colleges as well as the competition. They shouldn’t demand SAT scores from korean students going to korean colleges. :stuck_out_tongue: If they cheat, everyone else gets blamed for it.</p>

<p>If they did cancel scores in Korea, it wouldn’t be like January 2007 unless their logic is twisted.</p>

<p>If Korean students did “smuggle” tests out of the center, there would be no possible benefit to Korean students since the test would be over for all of them by that point.</p>

<p>If anything, the US scores are the ones to be in question…</p>

<p>did the leakage happen also in May SAT 2009??</p>
