In many states it is illegal to participate in activities where someone impersonates someone else via signature or other means of intentional deception. It really comes down to the state, but I think it does qualify as a crime in many areas.

Maybe so, but I would think this would only apply in cases where a financial loss or other tangible loss can be demonstrated by the victim. In fact, one of the foundational principles of English common law is that a party to a legal process must demonstrate actual damages in order to have any standing. You can't sue a motorist for running a red light, for example, unless he actually hits you while you're crossing the street.

I know a lawyer who has a habit of signing silly names like "Donald J. Trump" on credit card receipts when he is in restaurants. I asked him how that could possibly be legal, and he said: "It doesn't matter what you sign on the stupid receipt, unless you go back later and try to avoid paying for the charge on your bill. This signature doesn't mean a damn thing to the merchant or the credit card company."

But isn’t the victim someone on the edge of the cut that doesn’t get accepted because the are leap frogged by someone with fraudulent test scores?
