You keep trying to make excuses for people lying and cheating. Now it’s the fault of the test company because they should have expected teenagers to lie? Come on.

Most of these kids probably wouldn’t have lied were it not for adults asking them to describe the copyrighted material. They wouldn’t have had any reason to if adults in their lives hadn’t fed them some of this twisted reasoning for why it’s fine to lie about promising not to disclose copyrighted information.

The test isn’t used anymore because it was compromised. And the fault for the compromising lies with the adults who convinced young teens that they didn’t need to honor the promise they signed when they sat down to take the test. It is not the fault of FCPS, the testing company, or the “culture.”

I feel sorry for kids who have families with plenty of money to spend on education but apparently not enough time to give thought what it means to be a person of integrity.

Again with the guessing.  You have no idea how test prep companies got the questions.[/quote]

Someone on this thread, maybe not you, has indicated multiple times that there they believe that there is no ethical problem with people violating an NDA and revealing copyrighted information. That certainly reads that they believe that that is what happened and they have multiple excuses/rationalizations for why they don’t see it as an ethical failing.

Essentially, they’ve been saying, so what if it happened, it’s just “studying.”
