It's a very different world from the exams I had in Denmark, both uni and high school:

* all exams were proctored

* the proctoring were done by external people hired to do this.

* you could not leave exam for the toilet without asking first and then being followed out by a watcher, which then would follow you back and check the toilet afterwards for notes.

* you were never handed back the papers you handed in.

* responses were judged both by your own teacher and by an independent teacher from another institution.

* you must use ballpoint pen (permanent) and not pencil. Pencil responses were ignored.

Today the studens are even handed Faraday-bags that their phones and smart watches must be kept in during the exam. Full instructions for exam watchers for a business school: https://www.nielsbrock.dk/da/om-niels-brock/til-eksamensvagt...

Exactly the same as my experience in the UK.
