Espinosa Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 If something is not worth studying, you can cheese through it. Worked for most of high school. Takes a certain level of cunning to succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maji Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 In grade 3, I wrote "spruce" on my desk, because I had problems with that word. Must have messed with my conscious since then, as I remember it clearly, it was my first 100% on a spelling test, and I didn't know how to feel. I also got my sewing teacher to practically do my sweater project for me in high school by asking her to "show me how to do this stitch". I'm such a horrible person.

pinkbubblegum Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) I'm such a horrible person. I'm not so sure if writing one word down for spelling and having someone do your sweater project automatically equates to horrible person xD I can't really think of a specific example or subject where I did it, but I remember writing a semi-cheat sheet on my hand fan in grade school once, Mulan-style. And there was a time in HS physics class where we had to memorize the formulas for the test but instead of bothering, I wrote them down in pencil on my black pencil case. Good times ;; Edited September 6, 2013 by pinkbubblegum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon of Sin Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I remember one exam where I had to go to the bathroom. I took a bit of time to go to my locker and read my notes a bit. Otherwise that didn't happen very much. The one class I probably needed some cheating would've required steroids or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renne Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Not really. I either just didn't bother because of depression or I didn't have to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) fuck yeah i did (exactly once i changed the font of a paper from times new roman to courier new or whatever the other font my university finds "acceptable" is because it's a little bulkier) (EDIT: it's worth noting that this is so borderline cheesy that my english professor actually taught the class to do it when in doubt) (funny thing: more than once i've turned in a paper in times new roman that was too short) Edited September 6, 2013 by Integrity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zanarkin Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I have cheated on some assignments, by copying some answers from people. In return i gave those people some answers when they needed it. There were some that i just outright copied (yay online assignments).

Makaze Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) Did you ever try to cheat or cheese your way through an assignment? This can be something as simple as "lengthening" an essay to be just long enough to submit or something so trivial it won't flat out cause you to fail the class. A friend and I were swamped and needed a way out of an excessive workload. We learned of a planned fire drill and knew what we would do. When it came close to time for the drill, we asked questions until it happened, believing that this would throw the teacher off and make her forget to ask for homework afterwards. It worked.

Nightmare Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Yeah, a couple times. I don't normally cheese my way through anything, but these few times, some complications arose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breezy Kanzaki Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Whenever my English teachers in 6-8th grade asked for font sizes of 12 or 14, I would set it as 13. Not as cool as others but it was funny to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrhesia Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Oh, and I did a mate's assignment for him once. It took me like fifteen minutes to throw together a powerpoint and I didn't bother giving him a speech. I think he got a C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau of Isaac Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I've cheated in the past, though not as of yet most recently (and I don't think I will have to). I generally learn through listening to a professor teach. If s/he doesn't put in effort to discuss the topics and rambles about pointless things for two hours, then of course I'll lack remorse in destroying their non-standardized testing routines by looking up the answers and memorizing them. But then again I don't really have a negative attitude towards cheating in the first place. I'll inwardly smolder at people who cheat on something and do as well as me when it's something I care about, but even then I'll completely understand why they're doing it and wouldn't get in their way. Lazy or not most every college student has to sacrifice in order to gain a degree. The argument that they are there to learn what they'll need in their job is silly unless the topics discussed are highly specific. Even then many strictly career-related courses contain materials that simply are never used in a realistic job scenario. I dunno. I don't think cheating is that big a deal. It adds up but it takes a lot in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rewjeo Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 I feel like writing a "good" essay and cheesing your way through have a tendency to be synonymous, at least with certain teachers. So yes, I have cheesed my way through assignments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esme Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 I have cheated, yes. Felt guilty every time so I vowed never to do it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Wright Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Yeah, of course. On countless homework assignments in high school I would get answers from people if I didn't know the answer and I'd try to get help, too. Cheating on tests is where I draw the line for myself, but I totally understand why people do it. Having so much pressure being put on us for good grades is so lame.

Interest Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 New (simple) question. What is your favorite season? You can specify the climate (so that you can have a humid East Coast/Southeast Asia summer, etc) if you so desire. I personally like a good Seattle winter. I'm glad it snows too.

Vashiane Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Autumn. Even though our form of autumn here in Florida is just a random sharp decrease in temperature around late October/November, it's fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
