 Have you ever cheated on exams?

We all cheated in exams sometimes, some people maybe too often.

But this is how kids of new generations cheat in exams.

This one wrote about cheating:

who the fuck voted this up, this is like what
the 4th repost. and the conclusion was always
that it wouldn't work; most intelligent
institutions  only
allow water bottles without labels, any sight
of an ipod or even having a phone on you is
instantly considered cheating.

I've never cheated on an exam.

 

I had a big problem with students trying to cheat (or worse, plagiarize) this year. Mostly, they're not very good at it. Using cell phone to text answers to each other was about the most sophisticated they got. To cheat well takes some work and preparation. Most of my students are too lazy to even do that.

Actually..I don't like (if can't say "HATE") someone who cheat in exams. I had experience when I was in school,I did my exams honestly, and my friends were not!! But U know what? they got more high mark/value than me and my teacher didn't care how they got it!! Yell what should I say except "I HATE cheating" but if there would make U in bad position and your lecture / teacher doesn't care with their students did, that will make the honest student thinking twice to be honest in another exams…What do U think??

 A person can't know everything, and  it's no wonder that some students want to use different tricks in achieving good results at the exams.

Having been a student I also used some tricks  to overcome  some difficulties, like writing some formulas  with the help of a piece of a chalk on the white-washed wall, etc..

And now  I know how to " catch"  cheating students …

The  only problem is that  new tricks are invented every day.Smile

I had an exam today and did well without cheating..:-)
I actually used to write cribs, but was never able to use them. I am just too honest i think. But if you are able to cheat without being noticed…Then, why not?

i hate cheating.i suffered from  sleepy teachers who don't use to know how to catch cheating students.i was  sometimes obliged to give them my rough paper in order they stop bothering me when i'm working.i know  i was wrong.i helped them to cheat,but i have never asked them to help me.

it becomes an awful society illness.people cheat everywhere and waste time and money to find new tricks.it's really awful!!!!!!!!!

I hate cheating like some of you. I know some people who cheat for mathematics exams for example while it's really easy for student who learnt litterature ( in french there is a speacial class for people who want to learn more litterature, more sciences and more informations about actuality ). I believe people who cheat are lazy because i'm not sure they just do that for important exams because there are students who learn as informations as the others and they succeed. Moreover it's not fair because these people who learn haven't got the marks that they would have.

I'm with Greg, I've never cheated on an exam since I was in primary school. other kids hated me because I report them to the teacher when I spotted them cheating. lol. it happens all the time because seriously, I hate cheater and cheating.

when I taught classes for college students, I gave some of the student an F whenever I caught them cheating.
