The College Scholastic Ability Test, or CSAT, is approaching in just a month, and concerns are mounting over the potential for cheating using AI-powered smart glasses. In an effort to combat this issue, the Ministry of Education has announced stricter measures for the upcoming exams.
Exam supervisors will be required to inspect the glasses of all test takers before each session of the CSAT. Even possessing smart glasses without using them will be considered cheating, with violators facing invalidated exam results and being barred from taking the Suneung in the following year.
The heightened security measures are a response to a series of cheating cases involving AI glasses during recent university entrance exams. In one such incident at Yonsei University on October 10th, a student was caught wearing smart glasses during the entrance exam. Despite initial checks by exam supervisors, the student allegedly switched glasses during the test, bypassing detection until later on. A similar case was reported at the University of Seoul earlier in the week.
