The mystery of stolen exam papers

Honestly, who has never thought, even for a second, that the pack of exam papers could suddenly disappear, before the teacher had time to mark them? Who has never hoped that in some supernatural circumstances, the teacher had even lost them? 

Well, seems like in France such things are actually possible. A quite unbelievable event happened last week: after the students passed the “baccalaureate” - which is the final exam in high school - their papers have been lost. It obviously triggered a huge scandal, with outraged professors, disappointed students, and parents complaining about the lack of organization…

But fortunately, the papers have been found… in a bar! According to the bartender, a man came in the bar, dropped a bag and left.  It is still not clear whether they have been stolen, or if it was “just an accident”. In a way or the other, someone has to bear the responsibility for all these kids, who have been constrained to pass the exam again.

And this is not the first time that such incredible stories happen during baccalaureate sessions. For example, 1800 students from the technological section had to pass the exam again because the questions were (accidentally) the same as last year.

Also, three years ago, a student released on Twitter the topic of the philosophy exam. It is interesting to point out that a special commission prepares additional questions for every exam, in case of a leak… Looks like teachers are anticipating students’ will to make all the possible efforts to steal the subjects!
