I am. I'm telling them this is a stupid way to test students and not to do it. I doubt their institute mandates take home exams, so never doing them again is a great solution to prevent this from ever happening again.
I also think solo retests are fine, hence the suggestion of proctoring an exam. Because that's what they should do in the first place, if they want to test the students knowledge.
And if the students fail the exam, they fail the exam.
I'll go one further and ask what the advantages of a take-home even are? What's the use case for them that isn't "less work for the teacher at the cost of quality"?
