Hell nahhhhh...


Students Might Have to Take College Admissions Tests at Home This Fall



Pencils down.

The SAT and the ACT, standardized tests that serve as a gateway to college for millions of applicants each year, announced on Wednesday that they would develop digital versions for students to take at home in the fall if the coronavirus pandemic continues to require social distancing...


...Even the possibility brought stark warnings from critics and testing experts, who said at-home tests could exacerbate inequality, raise privacy issues and make it easier to cheat. Test security is a significant concern in the wake of last year’s college admissions scandal, in which prosecutors accused some wealthy parents of helping their children cheat on the tests to get into exclusive universities.


Low-income students already face disadvantages when it comes to testing, including a lack of access to private tutors, study guides and other means available to wealthy students trying to boost their scores. Making them take a high-stakes test at home could put them at a further disadvantage, experts said.

You could cheat but they got lockdown cameras and AI that tracks your eye movement and body language
If this type of technology were available at large, universities with online classes would be using it and it wouldn't be a concern. Maybe the CIA has that tech, but I've never heard of that being used for education. The closest I've seen is when you open the exam window, it locks down the screen, and if you leave that screen you forfeit. That's been beat by people who have multiple computers (everybody).
