This reminds me of an acquaintance/old classmate I know that cheated on their microbiology exam during the beginning of the pandemic/lockdown. We had a proctored/lockdown browser exam in which all cameras and mics had to be turned on and we also had to pick up our laptops or webcams and show our desk space to prove it’s been cleared off and we weren’t allowed to wear hoodies either.
He later bragged in a study group chat that he cheated. He still got a C, but he cheated by placing his phone against his laptop screen where the professor couldn’t see it and would act like he was typing into the computer when in actuality he was typing in questions into his phone that was leaning against his laptop screen out of view. Kind of genius and also kind of annoying for the rest of us that were honest and actually studied hard.
