To Cheat.. or not to cheat?

Posted by Grey on January 11th, 2005 filed in Chapters

So at a RBJ we had a discussion on cheating in school.. and i rememberd how much of a.. master i was at cheating. As sad as it seems to say, i’m verymuch a master of deceit and trickery when i need to be.. Here was a post where i shared some of my wisdom..

would it be unethical to get some of you cheat masters to share your secrets?

i’m just not skilled lah, all my cheating methods are very low-tech (like scribble notes on small pieces of paper and hide them somewhere etc), maybe that’s why it’s so difficult to me.

Ah, but the mastery of cheating is to understand that no single technique will work all the time, you have to vary it by each teacher, each test and each question..

The more “random” you make it, the less likely someone will notice a pattern (patterns are a great way to catch someone cheating).

Also.. dont cheat ALL the time..

My favorite technique was the frustrated side look. i would put my hand over my forehead, rub my temples, blink my eyes a lot (like i was tired from a Full night of studying..) and stretch. With each movement i would look at a different desk to find the question i was looking for help on, and comparing what each person got.. if your fluid enough no one can tell what your doing.

Oh.. and another hint :-D you need to set it up early. If you make the same movements during class (when not testing) and when your not cheating, it will become more routine to the teacher and they will stop “noticing” it

Oh! and one last thing. Always be prepared to get caught. Dont expect to never get caught… if your too afraid of getting caught then you will be more prone to mistakes.
