The 19-year-old university student who turned herself into police said she acted alone in the suspected leak of test questions during the national unified university admission exam on Jan. 15, and used a hidden smartphone to record the test questions, according to police sources.
The student, who lives in Osaka Prefecture and turned herself in at the Kagawa prefectural police's Marugame Police Station on Thursday, told investigators: "I did it alone. I gave into temptation [to cheat] as my grades hadn't improved."
