Copying on Exams

Question

Is it permitted to copy in exams from a classmate who allows me to copy from her, and the teachers know that students are copying from each other?

Answer

Shalom,

It is forbidden to copy on exams. 

The only exception is when the teacher explicitly permits copying, for example in questions that are meant for “review” and not for an actual “exam”.
