[quote=Anonymous][quote]Not trying to defend the cheaters, but that neurobio teacher should be reprimanded or even let go. How can a teacher not notice the easy vs hard questions? Which teachers in their right mind would let students come up with test questions for others? That is the epitome of stupidity and laziness. It is one thing to let students make up some questions and incorporate some randomly in a test, but letting students choose which questions to give to whom will inevitably lead to this kind of allegiance among students.

Agreed, but I'd go farther and say the administration made the right call.  Even under the best conditions, a test where students answer different questions seems inherently unfair.  Add in the idea of letting students write the questions and it's more of a psychological experiment than anything.  Kids who received more difficult questions crafted by the most advanced students would be at a disadvantage.  Given the amount of unbalance baked in, no one should be surprised that some opportunistic Slytherin kids did what comes naturally to help themselves.  They never should have been put in that position.  Don't get me wrong, they're still exploitative little shits.  But alerting the "major media" about a "huge cheating scandal"?  Maybe next time.
