Yeah cheating was rampant when I was in school. I remember in my physics class there was a group who had access to each midterm and final exam and would cheat. They wouldn't share with anyone else and sure as shit weren't going to say how they got ahold of the tests. Most of us were irritated because A) we actually did the work of learning the material; B) everything was graded on curve.
Professor was trying to figure out who they were, but you can't just accuse people of something that could get them expelled just because they got a 91% on a test.
The same thing happened to me. Ironically I was foolish for not trying harder to be included in that "group". When I complained at home, I got the "oh you did it all by your self and didnt need to cheat, be proud of that!" - My own family believes that some magical force will "reward" pure intentions and so keep being "good workers". In the end the people that cheated graduated with honours and now earn more money than me. Life is rarely fair, until we make it so.
