NALS protests in Accra over entrance exams failures
Amid drumming and chanting, the affected students insisted that the new rule was unknown to them before they took the exams
The National Association of Law Students (NALS) has hit the streets of Accra to demonstrate over the recent Ghana School of Law entrance exams failures.
The aggrieved candidates are accusing the General Legal Council (GLC) of their inability to gain admission following a new quota system.
The pass mark for the entrance exams has always been 50% in both sections, but for this year’s exams, the rule has been changed, so candidates have to score at least 50% in both sections.
Clad in red and black attire, the students hoisted placards with inscriptions expressing their displeasure.
Amid drumming and chanting, the affected students insisted that the new rule was unknown to them before they took the exams.
They are also demanding reforms to the country’s legal education.
