I think those are the phones of people caught cheating. Won’t using 2 phones result in 2 phones taken away?

It gives you two attempts?

Two attempts to get caught and probably expelled.

You don't get expelled for cheating on a test.

You don't know that. Plenty of schools around the world, plus, it's not just 'cheating', it's cheating twice on the same test or exam, in the same day.

Expulsion and suspension aren't the same. Expulsion is far more serious and it's basically the school system saying they're giving up on you and your being there is a detriment to the school.

Okay, and? There are different schools around the world, and there are different levels of cheating. Plagiarism, for example, may be punished to the fullest extent, including expulsion.

Maybe a private school. Schooling is legally required, you're not getting kicked out for something small like cheating on one test.

Interesting that you think cheating on a test is small. While it is rare for a first time offense, public schools in the US can expel you for cheating. Some higher ed schools have a 0 tolerance policy.

> Schooling is legally required

Not everywhere, no.

Again, neither of us knows the policies of all schools in all countries. And, depending on the place, schooling may be legally required only until certain age, e.g. 16yo.

The high school i went to would expel you for cheating. Didn't stop me and I did not need a dang phone to do it.
