How do your fellow students cheat on college/university exams/tests?

Question

And how do you feel about the cheating methods the students around you are using?

I'm not looking to cheat by the way, I'm starting up a research study soon on the personalities of cheaters and would like to know what the most common cheating methods are these days. I don't cheat, so I don't know what the "top" methods are.

Answer 1

i've seen it all.
-passing notes
-stapling small pieces of paper to a girls hair
-having someone stand outside the hold up the answers
-putting small notes on your glasses
-writing answers below your pelvis, so if caught they would be committing a crime asking you to strip
-writing the answers hard on one sheet of paper, then using the one underneath it as you can still see the in prints
-having a locket with the answers inside
-sign language
-stapling a paper to the inside of your shirt

i use to not care about others cheating, but today it bothers me that cheaters have the same degree as i do.

Answer 2

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do when your Survival Instincts kick in. But I despise cheating because why cheat when you can work hard to get what you want. I remember when I was in my first school , a catholic school, no one ever cheated, it was despised, no one even thought of cheating. You either worked for it or failed with Honor and grace.

When I switched schools, cheating was as if it was apart of the culture, everyone did, even the whizzes did when they were stumped. But in the long run, cheaters don't get anywhere because they don't learn anything, as the saying goes "cheaters never prosper". You can't cheat your way threw life so why cheat your way threw school?
