Hundreds of graduates found to have stolen identities and gaokao scores of others to get into higher education.

Chinese lawmakers are seeking to criminalise identity theft in college entrance exams, after revelations that hundreds of students in a single province had their scores stolen or used by others.

This year more than 10 million students will sit China’s gaokao, a state-level exam for entering college widely seen as a key path to higher education for students from underprivileged homes.

In one story posted to Weibo a former student described their school choosing some of the brightest younger students to sit the gaokao on behalf of students at another school.
