  日前,願望前去美國大學念書的韓國和香港門生加入的一場測驗,居然因有“靠得住證據”表現考題提早泄漏而被撤消。

  ACT測驗的主理方是在距分開考還剩幾小時的時刻宣告的這一決議。

  國際大概美邦本土想要在美國上大學的人,都必需加入ACT測驗,大概另一項測驗。

  這已不是產生在東亞的第一路泄題醜聞了。另外一項“美國高考”。也便是SAT,在2013年於韓國也因泄題而被撤消測驗。

  據美聯社新聞,首爾的私家“補習班”先生們表現,直到開考前一小時他們才接到關照撤消測驗。

  賣力本次測驗的ACT公司是一家總部設在愛荷華的非營利機構。該公司表現,在收到“靠得住的證據註解這些地域的考題遭泄漏”後,他們立時做出了這一決議。

  該機構在一份聲明中表現,他們會將測驗用度退給門生,並在本年9月再支配一次測驗。

  An examination for students in South Korea and Hong Kong hoping to study at US colleges has been cancelled after "credible evidence" emerged that it had been leaked in advance.

  Administrators of the ACT test took the decision just hours before.

  The ACT is one of two entrance exams available to international and domestic students wanting to go to a US college.

  This is not the first cheating scandal to hit the tests in East Asia. The other entrance exam - the SAT - was cancelled in South Korea in 2013 because some of the questions were leaked.

  The Associated Press said teachers at some of Seoul's private "cram schools" said they were not notified until about an hour before the students were due to sit the test.

  ACT Inc, an Iowa-based non-profit organisation that was operating the test, said it took the decision after receiving "credible evidence that test materials intended for administration in these regions have been compromised".

  The organisation said in a statement that all students would get a refund but would only be able to resit when the tests are held again in September.
