How students are using Chegg Study to cheat in online exams 

So this is how they exposed the fraudulent scheme that let students get high grades they didn't deserve. Students were able to cheat thanks to Chegg Study, a service provided by the technology company Chegg, which gives access to the database of test answers for $15.

With the beginning of lockdown and the shift to online learning, Chegg's shares grew by 300%. Now its value is estimated at $13 billion. American students even have a new word in their lexicon - to chegg, which is derived from the name of the company and means "to cheat if there is no time to study."

Chegg is based in California but most of its activity is in India, where the company employs more than 70,000 experts in innovation, IT, mathematics, and science. They maintain round-the-clock communication with users who purchased the $15 subscription, instantly giving answers and providing other services. For example, the experts help in compiling a list of reference materials, formatting bibliographic footnotes, solving math problems, writing essays, etc. According to the survey, at least once, 54% of senior students from the 19 largest US colleges resorted to these services.
