Someone will find a way if given the will and the time. Finding a way around imposed restrictions is much more for fun and the challenge than the actual cheating (mainly because the amount of effort involved in doing it means you know or end up learning the material in the process). 5th graders may not be as much of a worry, but students approaching and in high school would be. It might detour some, but not those with a more "hacker mentality." Just for comparison, all of my Computer Science Exams were given on paper and this was all within the last 5-6 years. Why? Because given the ability to use a computer, someone would have found a way to get an advantage, probably more for the challenge than the actual cheating. This was at one of the top 5 largest universities in the United States as well, so there was no shortage of money or brainpower.
