Law students to resit leaked exams

The students had petitioned the Chief Justice to cancel the exams set by the Independent Examination Committee (IEC) of the General Legal Council following the leakage.

According to them, the exams questions and the making scheme were leaked hours before paper, giving some students unfair advantage.

The IEC has decided to set a supplementary compulsory question for the candidates who had earlier sat for the exams.

The acting Executive Secretary of the IEC, in a notice, noted that the examinations have been scheduled for August 17, 2018, at 10:00 am at the same centre at the University of Ghana, Legon.

The 45-minute compulsory question will be based on one of the subject areas, including Law of Contract, Law of Torts, Criminal Law, Law of Immovable Property, Ghana Legal System and Methods, Equity and Succession, Company Law and Commercial Law, according to the GLC.

Only candidates who sat for the first examination are eligible to rewrite the supplementary entrance examination, according to the notice.

“All registered applicants are expected to use the Examination Index Numbers previously provided to them by the Ghana School of Law,” the notice stated
