University of Central Florida students study for test and get accused of cheating. Somehow a test bank of 700 questions floats around in the class. Students studied the 700 questions for a 50 question exam. The professor finds out and makes all students retake the exam. He claims he has a forensic analysis team on the case. No one can get out of retaking the exam unless they have a signed note from god.

The full length of this video is available publicly on the UCF website.

  • I felt like I cheated on this test and I don’t even go to this University.

    “For those who acted ethically, honorably, and did it right, you have me undying gratitude” Student who got a 20/100: “ay no problem, man”
  • @richardryerson
    Outside of confessions, there is no way in hell that this guy can identify who cheated and who didn't.

    So you're telling me, bro did all of these IN FOUR DAYS: -Met with associate dean. -Worked with TAs to write a new exam overnight. -Did "forensic analysis" on the data. -Has a whole team doing "forensic analysis" on all the potential cheaters. -Started an active case with academic affairs. -Went back to the dean and negotiated a deal. -Called all the major book publishers. -Made the major book publishers start a legal case. -Shared the info with management -MET IN ATLANTA GEORGIA with faculty members from 20 universities and shared it with them But he couldn't go through the trouble of writing his own exams and not reuse them? Lmfao at least try to make the bluff believable.

    i really just sat here and got harassed for 15 minutes out of my own volition

    The guy who got the lowest score: I see this as an absolute win!

    As a fellow professor, this whole thing is kind of gross. I just don't understand why this human wouldn't just take the time to design his own assessments to begin with. He's strutting his stuff and bragging about how the new midterm and final do not come from any test bank; I feel like a lot of the rest of us are like "yeah, dude, why didn't you make it that way from the beginning?". It's just lazy, teaching-to-the-book nonsense that makes these classes awful and boring, alienates students, and frankly has no place in academia. Of course cheating is reprehensible– but this is also just lazy instruction.

    The dude that didn’t study and was partying all weekend is hella happy lmao
  • @growllywood2813
    The twist: He made up the entire thing because he forgot to bring the material to present the chapter 9 slides
  • @sugarmike
    I have also contacted the FBI, CIA, Coast Guard, Child protective services, the plumbers union and the local knitting club to investigate. You will not get away with this
  • @jameskosty7058
    Nothing ever pisses me off more than being accused of something I didn't do. The honest people lose and this rewards the jerks....take it out on those who cheated.
  • @meltingatom
    "We know who you are, so just tell me who you are" rookie cop logic
  • @KWarrior88
    “The midterm grades will not count” That one kid who got a 37%: default dance
  • @blah7983
    There’s no way that they could ever know with 100% certainty everyone who cheated.
  • @rossparkhead4871
    If I were one of the students who did the exam without cheating, I would refuse to resit it.
  • @justin96130
    "To those who cheated, we know who you are" still proceeds to make the innocent retake the test
  • getting a whole cohort of students to study 700 questions before a test is probably the BEST thing you could ask for as a professor. It's not like they had the answers, they just had questions that could appear and had to solve and remember the methods for each question.
