The bible does not have a direct verse against examination malpractice. But it has a good number against deceit, dishonesty, and theft.
Luke 16:10 “If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities.”
What could possibly make exam malpractice bad?
It is you disobeying direct instructions from authorities
Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring Judgment on themselves – Romans 13:2
It is intellectual theft. Lying that the knowledge on your answer sheet was yours.

What a person desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar. – Proverbs 19:22
