Have you ever cheated in an exam?

Question

Have you ever cheated in an exam? How did you do it? Did you get away with it? How was your mark improved by cheating? Was it worth the risk?

My friend used to keep notes in his shoe, then go to the bathroom. I once was an exam invigulator and found somebody with a mini set of help notes and nothing ever happened to him. I was amazed.

Answer 1

I don't consider this to be cheating, but others seem to.

In one class I was consistently throwing off the scale by doing too well on the exams. So some students paid me $20 to get some questions wrong.

I intentionally answered about 1/3 of them incorrectly, the exam was scaled so I ended up with an A anyway, I got the $20, and the other students were able to see their exams scaled more.

Answer 2

i have done it many times but only with certain teachers that i know wont catch me..i never do it with a new teacher until the second time that way i know if i can do it,their are many ways of doing it...

if you only want to write a few things:

on a rubber,on your hand,leg,arm,shoe etc..(personally i use my arm)

if you want to write a lot:

on the computer u put the size of writing as 6 or lower and print it off..the letters are tiny making the piece of paper tiny,or if not do the writng yourself..i then usually put the paper in my pencil case or in my pocket or up a sleeve,sometimes it can help alot it you haven't studied,other times you'll realize that you can do the exam without the notes
i usually ask friends what they've written too and help them out,this is only with CERTAIN teachers..
i have also tried the mini notes they're perfect and if you can't do the little letters on the pc use a thin pen..

i have never got caught and if i think i will i dont cheat,its that simple,it was definately worth the risk because there wasn't one as soon as all the teachers i do do it with are stupid and don't realize!!

in spain they have a special word for these..'helpers': chuletas

Answer 3

hell yeah course i have many times too, its uncountable the amount

at school cheated for two years in maths ended up in the best class didn't have a clue so that was the down fall

some of the way through my first college course i was ever so good at it, either writing intitials on the desk prior knowing what they meant, leving my foldr on the floor in a clear cover, my arms legs anythign i could get away with, also i was good at wacthing the lecturer and looking at others books, teh majority of the time i did do it myself though, bit i can say i only cheated if i was in doubt

if you get away with it why not, theres worse things do than that

Answer 4

I don't want to seem a 'goody goody', but I have never cheated in an exam, or at any other time. Those who cheat in exams only cheat themselves. Better to fail, learn from it and move on, than to cheat.

Answer 5

No. My Friend tried once in an end of year test but was caught.
