How to cheat in Exam Method - 5

Try cramming information last minute. By spending the few minutes before an exam skimming over your notes or studying, you have a shot at being able to do well without cheating.

1. For essays, try to remember key words. Usually professors or teachers have "key words" that they are looking for in an essay. This means that the actual "fluff" of the essay is less important. If you know the topic or possible topics of an essay question, cram four to five terms you know your professor will be looking for. Instead of having to study everything, you can succeed with less effort.
2. For math exams, try to memorize formulas. Knowing a formula can be more powerful that spending hours doing practice problems. If you can write down a formula enough to memorize it, then you can spend the test trying to apply those to the problems.
3. For multiple choice exams, try "chunking" information you know will be on the test. Instead of memorizing a list of words, try breaking it into easier to remember smaller lists. For example, if I am studying for a history test, instead of remembering "Jefferson, Hamilton, Franklin, Washington, Grant, Lincoln, and Lee" break it up into the "4 of the founding fathers: Franklin, Washington, Jefferson and Hamilton" and the "3 civil war leaders: Lee, Lincoln, Grant." By memorizing the number of men to a specific topic, it'll be easier to narrow down who you are missing.

How to cheat in Exam Method - 4

Try getting the "Instructor's Edition" version of your Textbook. For professors who use pre-made quizzes from their "instructor's edition" textbooks, purchase a copy. Find the correct edition of the book online and buy it. Before a quiz memorize the answers to the questions. This method is good for entry level science, foreign language and/or history classes that pull their quizzes straight from the book.

Try getting an "Advanced/Old Copy" of the test. This can be done by talking to an old student or by talking to other students who might have connections in the class. Study straight from the exam, or if you suspect that the exam will be the same, study the answers straight.

Try the "Comeback Later" method. If you know a professor or teacher will let you come back to finish a test, purposefully don't finish the exam and ask to comeback on a later date. Make sure to memorize the topics or questions so that you can look up the answers before finishing the test later.
Claim to be sick, go to the bathroom towards the end of the exam until its over, or pace yourself slowly. Be sure that your professor will let you come back before using this method as you could actually do worse if he/she doesn't let you finish.

Try the "Bring Your Pencil" method. As you turn in your exam, if your professor isn't at her/his desk, use a pencil you brought up with you to change or write in answers from the test at the top of the pile. (This is a high risk!)

Try the "Peeking-Partner" method. Seat yourself behind someone who will do well on the test (either bragged about studying or is a master in the subject). Adjust yourself so that you are on the furthest left or right on your seat facing diagonally towards his or her desk, this should allow you to look over their shoulder without having to move your head too much. Never choose a student in the center of the classroom or in the front as this makes it more likely that your teacher will notice you looking over their shoulder.

1. Try the "Signing-Partner" method. Create a system of signing with a fellow student in the class. This is going to double your knowledge of the subject because you can work together to sign answers to each other. On multiple choice exams:
2. Establish hand or foot tapping signals for A, B, C, D, E and "wrong answer." By creating a signal for "wrong answer" you are going to improve the likelihood of you both doing well on the test by helping each other eliminate wrong answers. Also create a vocal noise for getting their attention that isn't suspicious (like a cough, or foot tap).
3. Start by coughing to get their attention.
4. Use your fingers to give the number of the question (flash 3 than a 2 to with your hand signal question "32").
5. Wait for them to signal their answer (pulling their ear for "B").
6. If you need help deciding between 2 answers: cough, give the question number, and signal for the answer you suspect it might be.
7. He or she can nod his or her head if its correct, if it's the wrong answer he or she can send the "wrong answer" signal (put up your hair in a ponytail).

How to cheat in Exam Method - 2

Start by gathering the information you will need. This includes formulas, key words, vocabulary, dates, definitions, names, conjugations, etc.

Write or print the information correctly. The font should always be clear to read, and in the Goldie Locks size (not too big, not too small). While you would want to include as much as possible on the small sheet of paper, remember if the font is too small you will overly focus on your cheat-sheet thereby increasing your chances of getting caught. Also if it is possible to print-out your cheat sheet, do that. It will reduce the chances of your teacher or professor being able to trace it back to you.

Copy it down. This is most common for spelling tests. Copy down the spellings in your spelling book to a piece of paper, then put it on your lap or up your sleeve. This is a high risk method, so be careful.

Hide the sheet.

1. Try the "Body Part Cheat-Sheet" method. Instead of printing out the cheat sheet, try writing it on a part of your body. Good places include your forearm if you are a man or your upper thigh if you are a woman. These are both great because you can wear a dress or long sleeve shirt to cover up your cheat sheet when you aren't using it. It's important to not make it obvious that there is writing on your body. Put the words in a place that faces you only.
2. Try the "Water Bottle Cheat-Sheet" method. Print out the cheat sheet on a colored piece of paper that matches that label of your water bottle. Paste it on the label and turn it so that it only faces you. Ideally, you want to mimic the writing on the label to avoid suspicion.
3. Try the "Binder Cheat-Sheet" method. If you have a binder that has a clear slot in the front, slide your cheat sheet into there. Move your binder from under your desk to the slide of your desk to peek at your cheat sheet. Try to minimize the amount of slide, especially if you don't have carpet in your classroom.
4. Try the "Calculator Cheat-Sheet" method. This is common for people who are taking math tests, because that's the only reasonable time to have a calculator without being suspicious. Slide formulas or information terms between the back of the calculator and the calculator's cover.
5. Another Calculator Method to try: If you have a graphing calculator, save the math formulas into your calculator. Then, put the information into archive, so you will still be able to get to it if your teacher makes you clear the RAM. Unarchive the information during the test. Clear the memory after the test. This also works if it's the school's calculator, because no teacher or student is going to look in the archive. If you don't know how to archive things on a calculator, look it up.
6. Try the "Stashed Cheat-Sheet" method. Hide a cheat-sheet in a separate place all together to avoid it getting connected back to you. This includes on a bulletin board in the classroom, in a bathroom stall or on someone's chair.
