You cheated in bowling and walking class?
i dont know what university you went to, but you went to a REALLY wack university if they forced (being the operative word) you take 2 PE classes. and even more wack if they were more than 1 credit. so you are either trying to pull shit out of your ass to make a point, or you went to a higher education establishment of lower standards.
seriously, id like to know who here, that went to college, were forced to take a 2 PE classes as part of their degrees.
this isnt even the point though, because really if you have enough focus and motivation you can use some self-directed learning through any class you take, even bowling and be able to take something away from it that will make you a better individual in general or whatever job you think you want to be good at.

Cheated in high school for the fun of it. I didn’t take a lot of the classes seriously. In math, I would ask the teacher if I could go to the washroom and then just ditch the class to play soccer with my friends during their lunch period. I had better things to do, like chill with my friends. I got exams from an earlier class and just remembered what kind of questions would be on the test. If I couldn’t cheat, I kinda helped to break the system. Chemistry was taught by one teacher for three classes. I had the first one so whenever a test happened, I’d memorize it and relay it to my friends in the next two classes what the questions were. The tests were never the same but only slightly tweaked so telling someone what kind of questions to expect was more than enough. Any time it was “peer marking”, everyone cheated.
Cheated once in university because it kinda just…happened. It was first year Intro to Engineering course and the fire alarm went off. We stood outside and ended up talking about the final and the answers (it was multiple choice). When we went back in, not only did they allow us to continue the exam but also gave us an additional 30 minutes.
Cheating was only fun if you were there just for the ride. It didn’t help when you actually needed to know what was going on. Shit hit real hard in university so I actually sat down and studied. I wasn’t the smartest in my classes but at least I knew what I was talking about. I recently stepped into a group interview for a job and saw a fellow graduate who I know cheated on every assignment, test and exam possible. When it came to the individual technical sections, he struggled a lot. He did alright in the teamwork section though. Mainly because I built almost the entire backend to our system.
No, I said I only cheated a couple of times, one of them was my friend finding the test answer keys and sent them to me. Seriously, who would be able to resist looking at it and making a free A? Other stuff was just putting shit in my calculator that I never really ended up using. Like I said, in my later classes all tests were open book/notes/whatever anyway so there was no point to cheating.
The original article was basically this (I went to this school too, only that I was in the engineering program for grad school):
-600 senior Business students in that class as part of the capstone course in the business program
-They administer the test via a specialized “lab” with cameras and speakers to monitor cheating
-Someone dropped the test key into the prof’s desk and thus the blast started.
Good Morning America’s coverage on the issue
At my last school, most of the engineering students cheated with equations and old exams using TI-89’s for almost every single class (for EE’s mostly, dunno about others)
Lol I’m a Biomed Science major and I’ve NEVERRRRRRRRRRRRR had an open book test.
Does that mean I’m fucked =[
Look at it this way. If you work hard and make it through the program, your manhood will be so potent that your colleagues will never have their grant proposals turned down if they write them with the same hand that gave you a handjob.
I’m very confused by that response.
In any case, what I was trying to say is that not all good majors have open book test. I can understand why computer sciences would have open book test cause of all the programming stuff buuut it’s not really applicable pre-health fields.
One time, in high school (many years ago) me and a buddy cheated on a math test. I gave him all the answers I thought were right and he gave me all the ones he thought were right and we both still ended up failing horribly. It was basic geometry, too. :amazed: Never cheated in college.
I’m never right about these things, but you MUST be a physiology major.
This thread reminds me of the movie “slackers”. Man I love that movie.
I think a major problem is difference in testing methods. People keep mentioning open book, yet I know many classes where students are PISSED because there is no open book. Trying to memorize all the shit you gotta do to fuck with certificates and generate keys in unix, is a whore. Shit like that SHOULD be open book, and I can understand why people WOULD cheat on shit like that.
My email server class, the class average is something like 64% and only 1 student has a mark about an 80%, due to the insanity of our exams.
I’m Biomedical Science major. It’s the degree that gets you no where degree. Basically made in order to prime you to get into a professional health school. I find out about Dental schools on Dec 1st! Wish me luck =D
ive never cheated in college but ive graduated with an EE Engineering major without taking even one open book test :shrugs:
Best of luck
Yeah, I think I may have to address concerns, maybe there is a rumor starting… I don’t know…
Young prof maybe a schoolgirl’s fantasy… but the young handsome in shape guy I am not…
BTW, no problem on the Cheaters movie… it was really REALLY good.
I’m an anthropology major and I assure you the work we do is far from useless nor is it a joke; although the way it is taught is kinda shitty.
well damnit… i have no fucking clue what the movies name is then. i can remember vaguely some scenes from it… but yeah. drawing a blank on the name.
Protip: it is useless (from a market perspective) and it is a joke (from a scientific perspective).
in b4: denial.
Also, practicing law is cool.
BAR EXAM: KNOW EVERY LAW OF EVERY TOPIC BY MEMORY WITHOUT LOOKING AT A STATUTE BECAUSE THIS IS A REALISTIC SCENARIO.
COOL SHIT, STATES.
imo.
I doubt this statement 100%.
