What is the ruling on joining a medical college with a total score that includes extra marks beyond the student's deserving score in one of the subjects, and is that considered cheating?

It is not permissible for a teacher to give a student more grades than he deserves, and if he does so, he is unjust and deceitful.

If the teacher gives the student extra grades knowingly, the sin is on him. As for the student, there is no blame on him because he did not commit a forbidden act.

If the student obtains a correct answer without intending to cheat, there is no sin on him for writing it, because it is a provision that came without effort.

It is not necessary for the student's assessment of the answer to be correct, as the corrector may have a perspective that makes the student deserve the grade. If the corrector errs while being diligent and trustworthy, there is no sin on him.

Therefore, there is no harm on the student in completing his studies, and there is no fault or sin on him in doing so.
