Two budding doctors fromUniversity of Health Sciences (RGUHS), Bangalore, have developed such a painfully elaborate plan to cheat their way through their MBBS exams, that just studying for them would have been much less trouble. This included buying a Rs 25,000 wired vest fitted with a device that ensures mobile signals never drop in an exam hall, allowing them to cheat using phones.Even the pens they carried were wired for cheating, using which they scanned the question paper. They communicated using a ‘skin-coloured’ Bluetooth device that almost disappears once inserted in the ear.Despite their (almost commendable) attempts, invigilators caught them ‘concentrating too much’ on their papers.The e-vests were bought online. They are wired for cheating, with a micro radio frequency device stitched at the hem. Over the vests they wore shirts with a concealed pocket right under the armpit (a safe place to tuck away a cell phone linked to the radio frequency device).RGUHS registrar N Stold Mirror that the two students, both hailing from influential families,had planned well in advance. The university has lodged police complaints against the students.
