Harry, they are equally unnatural to a native speaker's ears.

As I understand it, I think that you could say something like:

"All the students other than I are experts."

That is: All the students [who are] other than I [am] are experts.

Hi James,

The original sentence does not contain 'students'. What is the reason for inserting it?.

I believe "All are experts except me" is fine.

Note that my original response did not say the sentences were incorrect, they were just unnatural.

If I were among a group of people, and a friend of mine came along, I would say:

Everyone is an expert except me. (Meaning - everyone here, present company excluded)

If I were not in the group at the time, but somewhere else, I would say:

All the students
