[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]No. The allegation is that Mercer Publishing's CogAt test prep materials were essentially the same as the form of the test used by FCPS. But it was not a purloined copy of the exam - merely Mercer's work product that s[b]uccessfully mimicked the real exam.[/b] The federal court held Mercer did not steal the test and in fact did nothing wrong.[/quote]

Students have used this strategy for at least 300 years.  All students will anticipate what to expect on an upcoming real exam.  I did it and you did it growing up.  Some kids do it far better than others.  This is not cheating.  It's actually reflects a component of intelligence!

Having parents that buy a prep test does not reflect a component of a child's intelligence., nor does it show a child's ability to anticipate what to expect on an upcoming real exam.  It shows that the child's parent has bought them a prep test.  Your argument is silly.   Whether it's cheating or not is not going to be solved on this thread, which I'm sure will continue until AAP letters come out and the obsession switches to that.[/quote]
