Some LLB graduates who wrote the recent exams for admission into the Ghana School of Law are demanding the cancellation of the paper following reports of massive leakage of the exams hours before it started.

The aggrieved students allege that apart from the leakage of the paper and the marking scheme, they were also provided with answer sheets meant for BECE and WASSCE candidates.

The LLB graduates who have been sharing their frustrations with Starr News also want the Independent Exams Board dissolved.

“Some of the LLB holders are people with Masters and Ph.D’s and they have written professional exams before and we only got into the exam hall to be given BECE and WASSCE papers to shade on…so we are not just angry over the leakage of the paper, we are angry over their mode of doing things,” Yaa Asantewaa Opoku who speaks for the students told Morning Starr host Francis Abban Monday.

She added that, “every student paid 450 Ghana cedis and we were 1,800 students so couldn’t they have done something with the Law School logo on it.”

Asantewaa Opoku disclosed that a petition demanding the cancellation of the entire entrance exams and the dissolution of the Independent Exams Board will be sent to the General Legal Council, the Chief Justice, the President and the Legal Committee of Parliament.
