Ever cheat on tests when you were/are in school? : Othor Games

So guys, did you ever cheat in school? I ask because our huge varsity hockey player star back at my high school who basically singlehandedly won a state championship got caught cheating on the SAT's off the kid who's probably going to be valedictorian :facepalm:

So what about you, did you ever cheat?

Does it count as cheating to look at the test from the teachers computer the day before we were supposed to have it? In that case, our whole class cheated philosophy course 1. :whistling:

Never really had the need to cheat

Though there were kids in my class who did, on occasion, borrow finished homework to...uh....compare answers

Well if we include homework in this I think every single person who ever went to school is guilty!

I don't think there was anyone at my highschool that never cheated. That said I usually just accepted the fact that I didnt care and was proably going to barely pass. You know who cheated the most? The group of straight-A students who all the teachers loved and were involved in every extracurricular and community activity. They had codes and systems in place to tell eachother all the answers during tests.

Not in finals, or O / A levels, or anything serious that I could get in deep trouble for, but in school tests, sure. All the time. Teachers call it cheating, but we call it brotherhood. :rock:

Whenever we do group work in math the girl in my group lets me read her answers because she knows I'm mathematically challenged

sometimes I feel bad because she does all the work and shes a grade below me so I look stupid but I literally can't do anything with numbers...but if its history class or even writing or reading I will place you under my wing and you will succeed with low B's and high C's.

I can't remember ever cheating in school.

For one exam, when I was about fourteen, I wrote out some stuff I was having trouble with on a piece of paper and put it in my pencil-case. But I was too scared to try and sneak a peak at it during the exam.

On test... no
But on homework, off course :wink_smile:

I doubt anyone would believe me, but no, I didn't. Even if I wanted to, I was too busy trying to turn my arms and supplies into an effective fort to prevent anyone else from seeing my paper.

No. Though i kind of wish i had for few of them :whistling:

Wasn't stupid enough to need to cheat.

Only once, in a parasitology test. Everybody told me that the teacher "allowed it" and even then I felt bad.

A geography test I wrote abbreviations of my notes on my hand

Same here.

My school rarely has homework. It can only count for about 5% of your grade here, so I just never do it really. I never cheated on a test though.

Oh....I did make a website for people to upload scans of homework/classwork.......for specific classes in my school. It never really took off though.

Every single physics test ever.

I cheated for myself a little bit in high school but not much; I didn't really need to and I seemed to me I would need to spend more time coming up with elaborate cheating schemes than it would have taken to learn the stuff that was going to be on the test.

On the other hand I usually not only let others copy my tests but sometimes actively helped others during tests. There is one guy who would have failed Geology in our freshman year of college if I hadn't let him copy almost every answer from every test. He came from a very rich family, I should look him up and get reacquainted.

Not once in my entire life.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 5:19 pm

Yup, got busted once too. Got kicked out of the class for that one.

» Wed Dec 29, 2010 4:02 pm

I have never cheated on tests, but on homework I usually do it with all my friends together. I don't know if that counts as cheating.

I was making up my finals sophomore year in French class and I used the book. The teacher never really taught the class, and I neglected the assignments so I basically needed a good score on the final to pass the semester. She left me in the room alone the entire time, so I looked up the answers I needed and left. I don't typically need to cheat though, that's the main exception.

Very rarely , the last time was in 10th grade I think.

As for actual tests I almost never do since usually people ask me the questions but on a a couple ocasions I've asked someone who's better at a certain subject a question or two :shrug:
