Entrance Exams Paper Leaks Hours Before Start of Examination

YEN.com.gh reported in a previous story that the leak of the questions on Friday was not the first time this has happened.

In July 2022, the Independent Examinations Committee was compelled to cancel the “Civil Procedure” paper because it was suspected to have leaked hours before the scheduled time.

The leak of the entrance exams paper triggered a lot of criticism of the GLC, which has been accused of being overly authoritative and unwilling to introduce progressive reforms in legal education.

"The General Legal Council is just as incompetent as the bench. Together they continue to disgrace the legal profession but you folks are refusing to bring them to heel!" was the reaction FixTheCountry's Oliver Barker-Vormawor.
