The University of London said no student will be disadvantaged as a result of the two problems.

SINGAPORE - When John sat his mathematics exam on the afternoon of May 7, he was surprised to find that it was the same paper students were given in 2022.

“Before the exam, someone had asked about a particular question in the 2022 paper in a group chat for students, and when I actually sat it, I saw the same question pop up,” said John, who declined to be named as he is concerned about the possible consequences of speaking out. Mr Seddon apologised for the mistake and said the exam board will ensure that no student is disadvantaged because of this issue.

In response to queries, the UOL spokesperson said that affected students in that statistics exam could either accept their eventual grade, or retake the exam for free in October.
