    never mind cheating i remember when i did my lc the superintendent gave you the answers if you asked him to clarify something for you!!!!!

    In my school days I found that people who cheated were generally the poor students who were is trouble anyway.

    I also dont think it makes much difference to their results or you because the time and effort they spend trying to get away with it far exceeds any benefits and I would go so far as to say it prob worsens their results.

    Let them rot. Life will find them out eventually.
    You're just as ignorant as people who cheat for saying something like that, to be honest.

    Same, rammed up against a blackboard too, but it's still got some French verbs on it so it mightn't be all bad... It'd actually be way easier to cheat than I thought though.

    I think you should bear in mind that the JC doesnt count for anything. Dont be upset if someone does better than you because they cheated - if it works for them in the JC they might try it again at LC level and get stung!

    In the mocks I made up an artist as I couldnt think of a non Italaian and got full marks for the question.

    Also, couldnt you just write out the info you need on a sheet of paper, slip it into your pencil case and pretend to be looking for a pen when ur reading the notes.

    I actually think I might do this in maths for the formulas, and it would be quite easy as Im at the very back and the superintendant only gets up from his chair if you raise your hand.

    Don't bother telling the examiner, they will more than likely know, they record any strange happenings in a notebook with a time and approx area of the exam they are on, if they notice the exam is extremely good in one area and poor in the rest they will investigate it further.


    Don't be a rat, why the f*ck do you care what everyone else gets in the JC? If it was a competitive points system a la the Leaving cert ok then you have a point but not for the JC especially considering the fact if they get caught they're lives are essentially ruined as they won't be able to sit a state examination again.

    Let the cheaters cheat and see how far it gets them.


    As for cheating itself, its easy enough to cheat using a few crafty methods to slip away undetected.

    1. Splicing the sole off your shoe and slipping a few notes inside and then going to the bathroom or even in your socks
    2. Girls that wear skirts can write it on the inside of your skirts, no (Male atleast) examiner would dare ask a girl to show the inside of her skirt now (Usually :p)
    3. Planting notes in odd areas in toilet stalls all around your school and then going on a toilet break.
    4. Putting notes in your underwear (A bit desperate?)
    5. Reprinting coke bottle covers with notes instead of ingredients ( I doubt bottles are allowed into exam rooms anyway but maybe)
    6. Special pens which can fold out complete a5 sheets of paper.


    The possibilities are endless if you want to cheat.

    Haha luv dem!!! lol i wudnt use dem bu der pretty cool lol:pac:

    If you get caught cheating at junior level your whole junior cert gets cancelled and you can't do the leaving as far as I'm aware. Not worth it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32 Stranjak


    Rewriting ingredients on bottles is PURE genius :L
    I wouldn't try it though, too risky. Just gonna study and pray for the best me :/

    Cheating in the JC doesn't really matter as it doesn't count for anything, its just a warm up really for the LC. Cheating in the LC however is a different matter, and it could mean you take a college place from someone who worked hard and studied all year and you couldn't be bothered. Unless you cheating so that you just scrape a pass, you deserve a good hiding for cheating in the LC.

    Also, you can be prosecuted for cheating as the State Exams are offical government documents, and you are providing false information on an official state document


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,992 ✭✭✭✭partyatmygaff


    The bottle thing works really well on coke and works very well when your examiner just sits at the top of the class and does not mind bottles in class.
    Its simple really but if you get caught you have no excuse and your pretty much f*cked.
    You just get unwrap the label, scan it on your computer and photoshop in your notes, instead of replacing the ingredients just plant a few formulas etc in the design in a really light gray or something so its unoticeable.
    But then again, doing all of that takes atleast one hour, you could actually LEARN the formulas instead of cheating...

    If you aint cheating you aint trying kids, best advice I ever got.

    My favourite was writing on the bottom of my shirt and then just pull it out on to my lap, worked a charm in the LC.
    Dont be a rat its the JC, easy as pie. If you studied for it you should easily do well in it.

    Stop the ****ing text speak, kids huh

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,992 ✭✭✭✭partyatmygaff


    Quit the txtspk, its annoying to read, we aren't perfectionists or whatever, its just damn annoying reading something you have to look over 3 times to understand.
    A cheater in the JC is like cheating in your 1st year assesment test, your only fooling yourself.

    If your only talking about the JC thats grand, for the LC I wouldn't give a f*ck if I'd had known that person for 12 years of my life or whatever I would without hesitation report them for cheating If I knew they were gonna give me any less chance of getting the course I want.

    In the JC though, reporting cheaters is just a nasty and pointless waste of time.
