No cheating cases were detected except for few cases that did not affect exam progress which passes quietly since the beginning of exams on December 24. Students are abiding by exam system. Elkhosht pointed out that Cairo University took all arrangements for securing exam works, providing administrative security personnel for securing exam headquarters, and printing exam sheets on the same day of examination without circulating them through devices connected to internet to keep their secrecy. The subject professor should be attending at exam time.


Elkhosht said that exam results will be announced immediately after works of correction and monitoring.
