you are throwing away good food which some person in a poor country could use to survive.. you don't know the person so it doesn't bother you, kinda like cheating, you cheat, you get your points for college, some poor soul who you don't know doesn't get the points because they didn't cheat or they just didn't cheat as good as you, but it doesn't bother you because you don't know them... afterall you're doing the leaving cert for you and nobody else...

Haha, that entire 'paragraph' is the dumbest thing I've read all week. "Hmm, how shall I back up my stance on cheating... I know, I'll compare it to something completley different and far from the point, that'll throw em all off hehe." I can tell you would need to cheat at english anyway

I think people who cheat are pathetic. Seeing as you admitted to cheating, that makes you pathetic. You're not good enough to take the exams normally? Do you intend to cheat throughout your life? Do you really think cheating will get you anywhere in life? I hope someday the consequences come down like a sledgehammer on you

It's really terrible to cheat... I would never do it, apart from for moral reasons if I'd spend my whole exam terrified my examiner would see me... it'd do more harm than good haha.

On the plus side it's not like you can cheat your way to an A1 right?

Peyton Manning

During my leaving cert, one of the 5th years who was on the door for the exams was well aware that 2 of the students in my class were cheating when they went to the toilet. I know this, because I had finished my test at this stage and when we finished, we always hung out at our schools reception (where the entrance to the toilets is) and the 5th year would be on the lookout for teachers while the others were cheating. Disgraceful tbh.

roast

Now that would be pretty deadly!

Dont cheat though. Guilty conscience, and the fact that you cant do a driving test if you get caught.

Don cheat kids, mkay?

mang87

I would cheat, but I can't be arsed. Too much effort involved in the whole thing.

Say you wrote something on your thigh, like, a lot of stuff... All the ink on your sweating skin, and say you were wearing shorts, cream/beige ones, and you started sweating, and the ink made the leg of your lovely shorts go an astounding inky blue. Might look a bit suspicious, no?

What I was thinking something along the lines of some sort of receiver in your tooth. Did you ever see the adds for those lolly pops, that when you put them in your mouth you could hear music? Never tried one myself, Chubba Chubs were always the biz, so I got those instead... Anyway, I think the idea behind them was to play some music or something at a really really low volume, the vibrations traveled up the stick, your teeth picked up the vibrations and sent them along to your old ear canal. No idea if they worked, but think about it... Something similar to that, with a little radio transmitter... like a small gobstopper or something, linked wirelessly to a an ipod in your bag out in the corridor, playing a recording with the exam solutions on it, on repeat. :cool:

Is any other centre like this ?

no ours is like the exact opposite! they said before the first exam that bathroom was like strictly emergencies only but they lied! its like a train station! at least 10 people go in and out during every single exam and not one of them knows how to close a door quietly...noisiest hall in the world!!! and like half the time the attendants peopley things are sitting outside sunbathing so you could cheat so easily its ridiculous...

Know for a fact that someone in my hall cheated on Irish, not surprised really, he's smart but has constantly cheated on exams, I expect him to do it in History.

It's your right to go to the toilet when you need it, he is denying it if he doesn't let you.

Some fool left a Macbeth book in our toilets with her name plastered on every page with tippex and everything, in fairness if your going to do that at least make sure your name isn't on the cover in tippex but they dont check the toilets so she's ok but still like what a stupid thing to do..last year a girl wrote all over her school shirt in permanet marker...didnt get caught! I wouldnt cheat if I was goin to I write it on my thighs or stomach Id say!:D

A cuple of cheating incidents in my school, but nobody has got caught:

For the last few exams, one of the guys has been writing notes on the inside of starburst wrappers. He has one during the exam, and then reads it..with our examiner thinking its just out of boredom...or else just not seeing him at all
During the HE exam, a few of them had red bull cans on thier desks. Off this they were able to read the RDA's and other stuff...dont know how much the can could have helped..
Also, one of the lads writes notes on flash cards and goes to the bathroom 2/3 times during each exam to read them. Our 5th years stand outside the bathroom and let you go in on your own. They also talk to you...but just general chat. (i personally do not agree with students, especially those younger than you, acting as supervisors outside the exam hall)

Girl in my school went to the toilet during Maths, met one of our teachers, the biggest pushover in the world, came back with two formulas written on her hand.
Another girl got caught cheating in Home Ec yesterday. I wasn't there so I don't know what happened. Apparently she had the stuff written on her hand. Whatever it was didn't even come up, but the examiner saw it anyway and kicked her out.
What a fool like. What an absolute fool.
Its soooo easy to cheat by putting stuff in your pockets though. Actually ridiculous. And nobody checks the toilets before u go into the exam. Hmmmm... I couldn't cheat though... I'd feel way too nervous and guilty. And powerofone's point was excellent. I'd be mutinous if some cheater got my college place. Places are low enough on the course that I want as it is....

pikachucheeks

I agree.
Fair play to the person who pointed out that guy's poor mechanics!- that should put him back in his box!

I wouldn't consider cheating, no.
I just don't think it's worth it, as so many of you have already pointed out!

According to many teachers in my school, if you're caught cheating in a state exam, then you can't sit any others for ten years. That includes driving tests and everything as well. Also, I've been told it goes on your record, which means you can't travel to Australia or The USA. It's just not worth the amount of trouble it could potentially cause!

Thats a good point

OK I have a confession to make. I had a flashcard in my shirt pocket today in Irish with the intentions of going to the toilet and reading it. It WOULD have worked, but in the end I just didn't, there was no point, I want my results to reflect on my ability. There's no point say cheating to get your points for medicine, then going on to do the course and being like WTF I have to memorise stuff?! I suspect LOADS of cheating in my center, people popping in and out of the toilet and halls like there's no tomorrow.

One girl was actually out talking to the attendants during Irish, one of whom was on our Irish debating team! Help much?

I could easily cheat in my school and get away with it.

I would feel too guilty though. :rolleyes:

Wow...look at the views this thread has had...

The best way to cheat is to write whatever you need on a Luas ticket. That way if they find out you can just say that you wrote it down in the exam and didn't want to waste time waiting for rough paper. It sounds insane but someone in my year did it last year, they saw him and all they did was in the next exam announce that if anyone needed rough paper they have to get it officially, not that I'd advocate it

Sounds to me as if the supervisor didn't like the prospect of having to do the neccessary paperwork because that's one of the worst excuses I've ever heard!

Was in the Irish test today, and went into the hall early to do some extra study. I had my notes book. Anyhow got up to go talk to some mates, and left the notes book on the table behind me (I'm right at the back of the hall, no one is using that table). 9.25/9.30 came sat down and started the exam. Half way through the ****ing test I realized the book was still sitting behind me on that table!! Now it's a big dark reddish hardback note book, and the examiner was walking around a lot too, she didn't really come down near me much, but still it would be really easy to see it one would think. She didn't. Need I say more?

You can so easily cheat, write on the inside of your eyelids and then when you blink, hey presto!

analyse this

I had a short phrase going into the irish p2 exam today, written on the inside of my hand. I was pretty nervous on the way in and even before i entered the hall I realised m:o y sweating hands had caused my work to vanish!!

I took it as a sign and vowed never to be tempted by the unholy forces of dishonesty and malice ever again!!
