Tokyo Medical University apologises for changing female exam scoresOne of Japan's most prestigious medical universities has apologised for tampering with entrance exam scores to limit its intake of female students. The university has apologised for "betraying" the trust of the public -- Photo: REUTERSAn internal investigation found that Tokyo Medical University (TMU) had been manipulating the scores of female applicants from as early as 2006. It also marked down the scores of male applicants who had taken the entrance test at least four times. The university also admitted to adding extra points to the scores of 19 students who had made donations to the school. The newspaper reported that after the two-round application process earlier this year, only 30 female applicants were accepted to study, versus 141 men.
