Be honest. Have you ever blatantly cheated on a school test? Maybe when you knew you could get away with it...

Already had this thread a few days ago.

Supes, where in the bible does it say Jesus orgasmed on the cross?

I think somewhere in the Gospel of Matthew.

Yes, several Swedish exams in highschool.
Our Swedish teacher always selected the essay answers for the exams from an old textbook. So I loaned the the same textbook from the library and wrote a dozen or so short essays using the titles from the book at home (using a dictionary), printed the essays out with a good laser printer using font size 2 to make this little folded stamp sized cheat. I passed two exams I would not otherwise passed because of that trick.

And then there is that time when I got sent to the principles office while in the 6th grade (for hitting a girl in my class with a huge snowball). His secratary let me in the office and said that the principle would arrive shortly... Thats when I noticed next weeks math exam laying on the his desk, I (naturaly) read it, scribled a few notes in a hurry while waiting for the Principle and aced the exam when it was held.

Never. I like to earn my grades regardless of what they might be.

No, and it's very hard to get away with cheating. Especially when you get to the college level and the professor brings her vigilant teaching assistants to the exam with her.

*sigh*

The things people will do to cheat that I've seen. And they think they're not being blatantly obvious about it. :roll:

Only when I absolutely have to in order to avoid an F, and I'm sure I won't get caught.

No. Besides it being dishonest, in college they expell you for that.

Not since my spelling tests back in Grade 2.

once, just because the teacher said it was impossible to cheat with him and I wanted to proof to myself that I could.

In high school. In college I only lied when I desperately needed an extention on a paper, but I didn't plagarize the paper itself. It just took me an extra couple of days to put the polish on that I wanted sometimes.

Not anything you can call blatant cheating. On the STAR tests I always start early, but that's nothing.

Many years ago... A few times for Chinese, but thats extracirricular and has absolutely no effect on my grade. I can manage to pass without cheating :P

I'm essentially as math-illiterate as your stereotypical hillbilly. In 10th grade (mine was the last class to have to NOT take an extra credit in math, thank god) I took Integrated Math II. God it was horrible. The *only* test in that class I ever passed was the one where I cheated. That was the only time I can remember I cheated on a test. Later that year I was pulled out and put into my L.D. class' math course, which I passed.

A funny thing is that I treated tests like a trivia game quiz (which they are, I mean in all honesty, who gives a fuck or needs to know who Eli Whitney was). Only time I ever studied voluntarily was in my psychology/sociology class, which I was beginning to fail.

Almost surprising I graduated. :shock:

As far as I can remember, no.

I might have written a few base equations on my hand once or twice for Algebra and Physics, but that would be about it.

Not to my recollection no, but it is possible to have selective memory about things like this.

Never in college. More than I'd like to admit in HS (but not too often).

Maybe on a few spelling tests or something in like 4th grade, but if I have otherwise, I don't really remember. I've never really needed to cheat. When I have, i didn't care enough about the class to bother with the trouble, as far as I remember.

Edit: BTW, just let me say, 100th post! W00t! (I know, I'm incredibly active... What can I say? I lurk, a lot.)
