Dear Students who sat for the Principles of Sociology exam on 15 May,
We are aware that Section C of the exam only provided a choice of 4 questions
when there were supposed to be six and the last question on Organisations
which students should answer was one of the two questions missing from the exam paper.

The LSE became aware of the situation only after SIM told them yesterday evening.
Apparently there was a printing error when the paper was produced in London.
The printing error was not picked up and affected candidates in Singapore, Hong Kong and a
few other countries. We are all sorry that this happened. It really should not have. The University will issue a statement about this on the UOL website later today or tomorrow.

Mrs Gosling would like to assure students that no one will be disadvantaged.
She has asked me to express her concern and that she hopes students will stay focused on
your other papers and do well in your other exams. Don't worry about the Sociology paper
now that it is over.

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,
Sylvia Yeo (Ms)
Manager, Higher Education
