    I took the cheat sheet game so far at my uni they had to make a rule against it. We were allowed one side A4 so I used blue and red ink paired with those old style blue and red filter 3D goggles to effectively give myself two sides A4 on one side of paper. This was allowed in the exam but they specifically banned it afterwards.

      I was the curve ruiner. I had taken upper level IB physics, but it didn't get me credit for my physics class in college. I dropped the study class when I found out it was optional. Found out the homework wasn't required at that point. I did the 3 hardest problems from each lesson to prove to myself I understood it and studied maybe half an hour for exams. The professor asked to see me after class. I was the only student to get not only everything right but all the extra credit on the 1st of 2 midterms. (I missed 2 0ts on the 2nd) He wanted to know how a student who had dropped the very recommended study class had gotten the top grade. As soon as I told him why he accepted I wasn't cheating and told me he wasn't going to set curves off of me. The median rest score was like a D+. I kept my grades in that class very quiet for about 2 years until I got very drunk and 2 if my friends kept going on and on about how brutal the class was. It's ok tho. I took diff eq 3 times.

    This is a big reason why I fiercely oppose grading on curves. It turns students into competitors rather than cooperators, it unfairly punishes students on the left side of the IQ bell curve by comparing them with students on the right side of the bell curve, and it does not help with learning objectives at all. It is a lazy and irresponsible way for professors to hide their incompetence if the overall class performance was low, and punish students who succeed in the learning objectives if the overall class performance was high because they did not preform to the same level as their peers at that point in time.
    in short, grading on a curve is Evil and unhelpful.
