Aarhus University was involved in a massive blunder as over 99 percent of its medicine students received the top mark 12 for an exam on Friday last week.
According to BT tabloid, 156 out of 157 med students sitting the heart and lung exam received a 12 because the exam was made up of four previous exams that the students were permitted to bring along, including the answers.
“We must make public the earlier exams, so there is nothing wrong with the students bringing them along,” Kristjar Skajaa, the head of the Institute of Clinical Medicine at Aarhus University, told BT.
“They can bring all the aid they want. But, as I wrote to the students, we have apologised for clearly making an error. We accidentally reused some earlier exam questions, which we shouldn't have.”

One grade 10
Despite the blunder, the students will be able to keep the exam result because they had nothing to do with the mistake.
However, not everyone scored top marks, with one student scoring the second-highest grade, which is 10.
