As someone from Bihar, there is a pattern to this cheating. Certain years, the Govt. decides to clamp down hard and exams happen under Election like security and certain years you have free for all cheating. Also Bihar has a very small number of engineering colleges (like 9-10 compared to almost 300 in Tamilnadu), so in my experience people who cheat; tend to filter out themselves, because people have to compete hard for engineering entrance examinations (like IIT-JEE/AIEEE). My point is - by and large, it wouldn't be fair to paint a average engineer from Bihar by same brushstroke (of course, this is bit self-serving because I happen to have same background).
