[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe how many people on this thread fail to understand just how many students cheat. My kids went to a very competitive DC private and all the top students cheated--it wasn't even a secret. Mine did not--until they got to their junior year of college and were fed up with trying to keep up with all the cheaters--and this is at top university. Literally everybody cheats. [/quote]

THIS!!!!!! It is really astonishing how many students cheat particularly in honors /AP classes. My son was in an AP Calculus class first period where the average grade on a test would be a 75%. That same AP subject met for 3rd and 6th period and the average grade by 6th period would be 90%. My son would say it is so obvious kids are taking pictures of the test or taking screenshots, etc. then sharing the test questions so students in later periods would have the answers.

Students had copies of tests from past years or pictures of the tests from past years when teachers pass back the tests to review but are not as careful to supervise the tests. Kid takes pictures and then sells them the following year or gives them to younger sibling/cousins/ friends.

So many kids go to the bathroom during tests and look up answers on their phones. If the teacher tells the student phones need to stay in the class students bring two phones.

Students who do not cheat are in an extreme disadvantage. It really isn't fair. [/quote]
