Poll: Have you ever cheated on a test?

[Bureacreative]

spanish, i just looked over at a classmate's paper cause i had completely forgotten the word

 

[GundamSentinel]

I helped someone else cheat on a French test once or twice, but never made use of it myself.

 

[superbatranger]

My physics class in high school had a system. Someone would distract the teacher while another person would go to his desk to get a scantron sheet from one of the AP classes.

 

[PureChaos]

not important tests but on some online tests if i didn't know the answer i may look it up.

I used to cheat on spanish tests sometimes, but that was only because I never took any care to actually pay attention in classes. I didn't want to be there and my school forced me to take it. I cheated just to spite them. Mwuhaha?

Other than that though I've never cheated. I've never really had much trouble academically.

 

[Zorg Machine]

All the time. I'm currently trying to stop procrastinating and studying instead but until then...

 

[floppylobster]

Never but I've failed tests. But it didn't seem to matter in the long run.

 

[TheTim]

yes, i don't see a major problem with cheating, as long as you don't get caught

 

[Ekit]

Yes, I would write a question I had difficulty with on an eraser and toss it to a friend who would pretend to erase, write the answer and a question that she had trouble with on the eraser and toss it back to me.

I "aquired" a copy of some test paper's and wrote the answers on chewing gum which I sold for a premium, the reason being that you that the teachers allowed students to bring chewing gum or glucose tablets to chew on during testing.

open up chewing gum,
find the one with an answer,
chew gum,
Answer dissapears,
evidence eaten.

The next year kids mouths were inspected because the teachers got suspicious as to why a load of students had ink dribbling out of their mouths half way through the tests, they figured out the brilliant plan.

 

[Something Amyss]

Nope. I'm not above it, but I didn't care about doing poorly in most classes and the ones I did care about, I knew well enough to not need to.

If I was in the right situation, i might.

 

[ArcWinter]

I consider studyinq the day before/a few days prior cheatinq. I've only done that once or twice, however.

I've never taken answers from anyone else, if that's what you're talkinq about.

why would i when i already know all the riqht answers

 

[Ruwrak]

Nope. I'd only be fooling myself ya know.
Not such a good idea.

 

[PhunkyPhazon]

...Perhaps. I'm not proud of it, but it was either that or fail the class. I felt guilty at the time, but what's done is done.

 

[Lt.Snuffles]

I have only really cheated to the extent that I might peek at the person next's paper, but I have never cheated on an important test. I did however, the day before, write notes on the side of the desk that I would be writing a test on (an english one, all of my planning for the essay was written there. It may have looked odd to a bystander to have graffiti explaining how Lord of the Flies presents human nature), meaning I wouldn't have to waste valuable time planning in the allowed time.

 

[zehydra]

Don't see the point. It only devalues my own grade.

 

[Knusper]

I never do it on proper tests that can contribute to my final grades, as I can't put up with that dishonesty. However, I do often work together with my partner in biology, as we're both rubbish, and we work together to get better grades, although he probably copies me more than I copy him.

 

[MysteryMaid]

Nah, never cheated
Never had the balls, was always too paranoid so I failed quite a few.
Oh well!

 

[Rhymenoceros]

I have cheated on a GCSE :/

I'm not exactly proud of it but it was the new stupid test plan introduced this year that made no sense. I pre-wrote my essay (I say me, it was my tutor) then wrote it on small pieces of papar and hid them up my sleeve. But then I missed the first one so I was placed in an empty room so I pulled the full, uncut version from my pocket and put it on the table next to me.

I'm not proud of it (even if the method was genius. You could read the writing by pulling the shirt tight against the skin. Couldn't be seen otherwise) but it was on a exam that will be scrapped next year, probably, and it was in a subject I hate, can't do and is irrelevant to my future career path (physics). It was in german

 

[Nannernade]

Ha ha yeah it was back in high school for my Ag class we had a section on electricity we had to do like how to create a circuit and we couldn't move on to actually doing it until we correctly created the model on paper. So I drew it before hand then traced it sloppy ontop of it on another sheet of paper, teacher was none the wiser.
