Why are you so involved in your adult child's classes and exams? I'm a mother hen who parents my college aged autistic/ADHD son very closely, but even I don't post such nonsense.



I care because I’m paying $400k and also hope for some integrity in the world. Our leader supposedly had people take his SAT and college exams at Fordham according to a family member’s book. Look how great that’s going.


Then you're going to be sorely disappointed. What do you expect? Zero cheating? You seriously think that's going to happen?
Cheating is wrong, but people will continue doing it. There isn't more or less cheating, proportionally speaking, than in 500 CE when aspiring Chinese administrators began taking their civil service exams. People cheat on taxes, people seek to scam and defraud.

This is why there really isn't a point to this thread. Just make sure your kid is clean. Beyond that, there isn't much you can do.



I know cheating is going to happen. Perhaps naive but didn’t expect entire exams to be cut. Mine needs highest gpa possible for med/law and having all exams can be difference between an A or a B.


This is where you back off, OP. It's not grade school anymore. Your kid can deal. Hand wringing about an adult child's exam cancellation and a grade change is SO NOT a good look for you. You are beyond the helicopter parent stage and into pathology. People tried to tell you before, but you don't seem to get it.


No, and not offended by your comments, but entitled to your opinion. I don’t overly value most people’s on here. I was curious how you widespread it was these days. Think you can relax, you’re currently more bothered by me.

Are you going to study with them for the MCAT/LSAT, too?

Let’s not be ridiculous. Funny how people get so crabby on here over kids that get extra time on SAT, but are really zen on other topics. This place is funny.

Need to stop with the multiple choice tests. Let students use blue books to write out answers to questions. The real world is not multiple choice and kids raised cheating to a world class level during COVID.

All tests should be oral with students stripped naked and handcuffed to a chair. I think that would go a long way towards eliminating cheating.

My prediction is that classes will become 100% in class written exam based.


My ivy kid and their bestie at another ivy only have written in person exams that have TA proctors. They are lengthy problems and are not the kind of tests one can cheat on. The humanities classes have research papers that would make chat obvious. Some probably trybto cheat anyway but most are completely against it

Just google cheating in college. It’s been well studied and widespread for several decades.

Yes, and? You're waking up only now? Are you going to have a heart attack when I tell you that kids cheat in K-12? That people lie on social media, job applications and tax forms?

It's fine if you want to discuss lack of moral integrity in our society, PP, but I mock OP's self-interested stance, which is:
"OMG, one exam was cancelled and this might cost my Snowflake a chance at med school!"
It's not that she actually cares about the cheating.

It does seem more widespread now than when I was in school in the 90s. My hs kid tells me even the top kids cheat, with a couple of exceptions. And the cheaters are open about it. That wasn’t the case back in my day. I agree with the poster above that the tone has been set at the top.

What a weird response. She literally said “I was curious how widespread it was these days” so I told her to google it since this is a well-researched topic. You sound insane.
