Have you ever cheated, or know anyone that has? This may be getting someone else to do a take-home asessment, or taking notes into an exam. I never have.

Apparently our class of '07 got penalised for cheating. Not exactly sure what happened - and of course, our school principal isn't going to confess.

Never heard of it at our school. But if you really have cheated would you admitt it?

I mean you would be really stupid to do it in the first place.

I have this suspicion lurking in the back of my mind which I need to clear up. I know people are allowed toilet breaks when they go into an exam, but what if they had notes under their shirts, trousers or in their shoes. They could even have planted some notes rolled up and placed into the toilet paper rolls, ready for them to use. And obviously the examiner can't go into the cubicle with them, so what happens? I really don't understand this. Can they strip search you?

Strip searching by someone that isn't a police officer is ILLEGAL!
EDIT= or a person at the Border or whatever. But not a HSC supervisor.

Plus if your're under the age of 18 any form of interrogation, your parents have to be with you.

Also i don't know, i suppose they could go and check after you use the toilet if they are suspicious.

Is anybody that stupid to put their HSC in jeopardy?

are you fucking serious? strip search? hahahahaha use common sense, christ.

i have to take 3 toilet breaks every exam because i have a seriously weak bladder, sure you could cheat but it would be kinda pointless, you'd have like 30 seconds to get the notes out, find what you don't know, remember it, then hide the notes again.

I don't think it would be that hard. The only hard thing would be to hid the notes where the supervisors will never be able to find it. Because if they suspected you of using toilet breaks as an excuse to cheat, they would check the toilets throughly lol.

I mean i would.

it wouldn't be hard, it would just be pointless, odds are you'd spend so much time looking for that note you needed and then forget a little part of it.

If you forget a little part of it, would it matter?
If you couldn't remember anything on that question and you got most of it in your head, then you would get some marks?

Also, if you have it in a planned way, i mean having stuff you couldn't remember, stats on another page. Going by topic?

I think it would be easy.

Just need a place where nobody would find it.

well might be able to manage 20 pages of notes tucked in all different places...

nah, if your cheating, generally you'll have smaller notes, and on smaller pieces of paper i recon.. = tuck into small spaces

if your planning to cheat, there are a lot of way to do it..

if i think about it, i might be tempted TO cheat..


but talking about toilet trips, during exams we have to be escorted to the bathroom, ect, but the one time i did need to go during an exam (ext math) i just got told to go quietly..

well i know people who got their tutors to write their speeches and do their research reports.

And yes, of course some people cheat when they go to the toilet. Notes in pockets. Some people write all down their leg. Most just need to piss...

I mean i don't think people sitting the HSC are that stupid to put their HSC in jeopardy for cheating.
