Medical student surgically implants Bluetooth into own ear to cheat in final

I'm having cochlear implant and I'm able to hear sounds using a neckloop same as displayed in this video https://youtu.be/Gu2C6frbW18?t=130

So basically I'm able to control my processor and during boring meetings or family events, I can switch to T mode and listen to music / podcasts, without anyone noticing that. I can even having it balanced.. 50%/50% , or 80% / 20% etc..

I'm sure that it would be so useful in cheating in exams.. hard to identify.. you have aid hearing, they never expect you will cheat with that.

I'm wondering what will happen if Deaf people will be caught doing that? they won't be allowed to hear at all during exams?

Can a deaf person be a surgeon if their mode of communicating is with their hands?

That sounds cool to be able to tune out of boring meetings easily. I imagine the number of podcasts you can listen to is more than most people, any favorites related to software?
