i don't think i've consciously cheated, but a girl in the school cert literally had a dictionary under her pencil case.

and not one teacher even noticed that not only did she have her pencil case even on the desk but had a freaking dictionary!

Well, my story is for Economics. I didn't plan to cheat, but it all sort of fell into place, and I thought it'd be a waste if I didn't cheat.

The story: I was revising my notes just prior to entering the hall, and I sat at my desk. I was still reading the notes until the teacher just slammed a test paper onto my desk, covering the notes. It just went from there. I had sneak peaks at my notes everytime the teachers weren't looking.

Immoral, yes. Am I proud, somewhat. :D

Please leave morals out of this. I know, it's immoral, All Your Own Work blah blah blah.



So, what's your story.


P.S. NorthRiversMatt is not to post a comment.

YOURE TEACHER WAS TESTING YOUR CONSCIENCE. SHE KNOWS. BE AFRAID.

Nah. :p A lot of people can honestly say they haven't. Wouldn't cheating require an intention too?

i.e our Software teacher gave the exact same exam as the year before us. And 2 people in our class had the test as one of their brothers did it; they had gone through the answers the very night before, etc.

But that's not cheating on their part, that's just extremely good fortune (for them).
Lol sounds familiar to a situation I was in. One year (not HSC) our maths teacher set a test and the whole class did quite poorly in it :(

So... she rescheduled the test to give us all another go, and we thought that the questions would be somewhat simpler for easy marks. A few of us (me included) were away on the rescheduled date and so when the 2nd test was over a few students came and told me that the test was exactly the same as the one we all did poorly on.

So I studied up on the correct answers and memorised the proper methods for calculations. I basically knew what the questions demanded this time, so it was more about studying correctly than cheating. I aced the test and didn't feel bad about it; it was probably more the teachers fault for giving the same test or for even rescheduling another one.

I think it was in year 9 or 10... where nothing really mattered anyway.

At the end of the Yr11 final exams, the guys who thought they 'were-all-that-and-more' starting playing ping pong pop... ya'know how ya make that popping sound with your mouth and it sounds like a bat hitting a ping pong ball...

Well they started doing that, like back and forth, back and forth. The teachers didn't even bother to stop them even though there were clearly still people trying to finish their exam.

Seriously agitating/annoying and you automatically begin to lose concentration. Freaking teachers couldn't give a stuff. Also it always seems to be that when our year has exams on, there are a group of people using those fucking Vortex ball things outside the exam hall. Back and forth, back and forth.... just over and over again during the whole exam. Teachers dont' bother to stop that either.

ahaha our school is the exact opposite. any sign of distraction from inside or outside the hall, and the supervising teachers defuse it in record time. haha we had a supervisor tell the principal not to walk in the corridors because the clip-clop of her heels were annoying.

Our school has heaps of those Vortex things as they use them to practice for javelin. They let those things pass but usually if people get loud outside while playing basketball etc they just close the exam room door... oh just fucking forget that the walls are paper thin anyway you stupid fucking teachers.

rules were made to be broken
people speed when there are no cameras around
i think if people are willing to take the gamble, good luck to them if they get the extra marks
however for most of us, teachers are so watchful that its pretty much impossible

its so easy to cheat, there are so many ways. teachers are really dumb these days. either that or they just dont care

here are a few ways..

- notes in pocket, look at during exam
- draw on hand/arm, (hide with jumper/school uniform etc)
- hide notes in scientific calculators, or other stationery
- hide notes in toilet, ask to go to the toilet
- create a code, have some people help you. for me + a few other ppl it was
[A = Ask for more paper/or stretch if you have already asked for paper, B = Breathe loudly, C = Clicking pen, D = Dropping pen on ground] (FYI this was a senior science exam, and sit near the people who are going to cheat with you)
- hide notes under your jumper/uniform or whatever
- hide notes under test paper, then look through the test paper and copy notes
- draw on leg (not recommended)
- hide notes in shoes (not recommended)

its also best to sit on the left end or right end of the hall/classroom, since teachers can't see you cheat on that particular side. its even better to sit at the very back of either the left or right end, as it makes your chances of getting caught minimum. personally, i have never been caught and I have used all of the above methods except the not recommended ones.


if your against cheating, dont flame me haha, just sharing a few thoughts :)
why do ppl hide notes in the toilet? can't u just put them in your pockets?

you can look at a huge sheet of paper, or even a textbook in the toilet. but not with pockets.

even better: WRITE YOUR NOTES ON THE TOILET ROLL.



Anyway, in the 2006 School Cert. i cheated in the commerce exam. I had finished the entire exam, had the booklet closed, and was putting my pen back into my pencil case. As i was opening the pencil case, a page of notes fell out (that i didnt actually end up using funnily enough..). At the same moment, supervisor walked passed and busted me.

Got an N award for SC commerce. :D


never cheated since.

Never cheated, don't plan on doing so.

Wonder how the 'cheaters' fare in relationships. Wouldn't it be interesting if they still kept up this game then?
