People cheating in Exams.

I don't know what to do about this, the guy sitting behind me (for all exams), admitted to copying my Methods Exam 2 multi choice answers (this guy is the biggest scumbag and does so much shit without consequences). Also, I'm pretty sure the girl near me was copying too, ffs, everyone was way too close. Now I don't know what to do; I still have two more exams which will have a multi choice answer sheet, and if I want to work efficiently and maintain focus, I can't be worrying about hiding my answers the whole time. Any thoughts? I really don't think I have the balls to tell on him, I'll probs get bashed lolz.

Well your only choice is to incorrectly circle the answers let him copy and then erase them... fill in the correct answers and laugh inside your brain :) LOL

I wouldn't worry too much. I don't think it's worth telling on them, you'll get a better score than those losers anyway.

I would do this too haha

In this case, I would just write down the multi choice answers on the back of a sheet of paper or something else, and then when the person says 5 minutes to go just go through and circle them all so by that time, there won't even be time to copy them out. And for the love of God, when you finish them, TURN YOUR SHEET OVER ! Or put it somewhere out of sight !

Good luck :)

You really can't do much unless the supervisor catches him out in the act. Does your school provide like blocks or anything to stop people near you from cheating? I know when I did my exams we had people sitting at opposite ends of the table with a block of wood separating the view at the front. It wasn't much but it was something.

You can put your hand over your answers when you're writing/circling answers. It's inconvenient having to do that I know.

Nah we have separate tables - but they're really close...
Yeah, I will have to decide between this and what anna suggested.

That happened at our school with another bloke. What you do when you walk in is to tell the supervisor to watch around you during the exam and once he/she catches the person there pretty much gone and VCAA is contacted....now, you talk shit about them and let VCAA give them 0 whilst you go to Melbourne Uni and their off to welding school at Tafe h3h3h3h3hh3h3

Yeah - most people don't care about what they did in high school, instead choosing to look back on it and think, "God that sucked" or "God that was amazing".
