SINGAPORE, Oct 20: About 13,000 students at a Singapore school will get results of their exams through text messages on their mobile phones.

An estimated 80 per cent of students at Temasek Polytechnic carry mobile phones and they just have to register with the school’s website to be able to get the service, the Straits Times reported.

Students will receive their grades via short message service (SMS) on the same day the academic examination results are released.

Singapore has one of the highest usages of mobile phones and the Internet in Asia.—AFP
