I understand. I will remain honest and will not change tabs or look at my notes while taking the test.

My final exam score is automatically zero and my teacher will not give me any special consideration to be fair to everyone, if I change tabs as revealed by Wayground Anti-Cheating Feature.

I do not agree.
