HOW TO CHEAT ON A TEST
Cheating has become a part of students’ habits. Students cheat in order to get good grades and of course not to get caught by teachers or lecturers. Cheating is caused by several reasons such as; students’ predicament (for instance, the material of the test is too theoretical and it unconsciously forces students to cheat because they feel that it is difficult for them to memorize all the material), opportunities for less strict guard, fear of failure because students are not ready for the exam, and students’ lack of self-confidence. Even though cheating can help us while doing on the exam, it surely has risks as well. There is another thing that needs to be considered by students; a possibility to get caught by the lecturer or teacher. If students get caught, the consequences can be severe. This essay will talk about three steps that can be applied to succeed your cheating process; planning it carefully, cheating carefully on the day of the test, and getting rid of the evidence.
The first step is planning it carefully. Write anything that you think is important a night before the test and write it in a small crib sheet. You can place your crib sheet in your pencil case, on the bottom of your shoes, or insert it under your watch and make sure you wear a cloth with long sleeves in order to make it safer. If you wear short sleeves, the possibility to get caught could be higher. Also, think about other possibilities if you cannot open your crib sheet during the test. You can come early to the class and write down your cheating material on the desk or on a tissue. Use a tissue and make yourself as if you are sick (cough, flu) and the lecturer or teacher will not be suspicious at you.
The second step is cheating carefully on the day of the test. You should be aware of the lecturer or teacher who walks around and make sure to sneak a peek at where they are to minimize your chances of getting caught. Besides, be aware of your own movement, make sure that you do not make yourself look suspicious by being panic or nervous. You should keep yourself calm during cheating. If you are about to open your crib sheet form where it is hidden, make sure you pick and open it carefully - do not be in a rush.
The third step is getting rid of the evidence. After finishing your cheating activity, you should get rid all the evidence. Leave no trace by using an eraser to erase what you have written on your crib sheet or on the desk. If you use a tissue, you can put the tissue in your pocket. By erasing the evidence, you will feel safer and there is no chance for the lecturer or teacher to have any clue to know what you have done.
In conclusion, there are three main techniques to cheat on a test that can be used by students. The first step is planning the cheating carefully. It can be done by preparing the cheating material in small crib sheet and using a tissue or writing on a desk as alternatives. The next step is cheating carefully during the test by being aware of the lecturer or teacher’s movement. The last step is getting rid of the evidence by erasing all the evidence. These techniques can be applied to succeed the cheating process.
