The Education Ministry has decided to throw out the test results of more than 320 students who were involved in organized cheating on the national college entrance examination, a ministry official said yesterday, reports the JoongAng Daily.

"We have already nullified 226 test results and are going to toss out 99 more by Monday," said an official from the ministry's school affairs office. "Their report cards will be discarded as if they never took the test."

The National Police Agency said 22 students have been arrested in the scandal so far.
