Yikes! A laser pointer…what crafty students we have!
I just grabbed one of our IF-AT cards and tried to spot the star
with both a red and green laser. I was not able to see a star by shining the
laser from the back or front of the card. More remarkably, I didn’t blind
myself.

We had a similar cheat our first
year....but discovered the team was using a laser pointer to see thru coating
The anomalous one for me is question 6....if the scratch pattern is left to
right....it should look like 12

Interesting. I would have not suspected cheating.
The only one that raises “suspicion” to me was answer 6. All others appear to
start from roughly the same point on the left and they scratched until the star
was revealed.
From the image I can’t see any anomalous scratches.
I also agree that a “cheating” team would have done a better job at revealing
the stars.
Any prior concerns with the team?

Jeez,
that IF-AT would have raised my suspicion, too. Scratched off by a
sharp-shooter!
That said, if they were really cheating, it seems like they might take extra
effort to cover their trail and be sure to always scratch them all off.
Still. . . I have never seen an IF-AT like that before.

Hi
We wrongly accused a student team of cheating on an IF-AT (see attached)
At first glance they seem to know where the stars were....partial scratches
just barely revealing stars
Turns out when we compared handness (i.e. Students that scratch from --
right, left and middle -- each has an anomalous pattern of
“coincidence”)
There still are some anomalous scratches on the attached IF-AT.....but it took
away our confidence to call it cheating
