Read Other yPortal Articles Cheating is generally considered unethical and lazy. Its a form of dishonesty, comparable to stealing and lying. There are some cases, however, where cheating on a test might be argued to be acceptable. Sometimes there are tests that are the result of politics, rather than practicality. Either way, you must be prepared to accept the consequences of cheating. Its a risk, and if you get caught, take full responsibility for your actions. With that being said, here are some ways that people cheat. Be careful and always be aware of where the teacher is looking; no method of cheating is successful if the teacher is looking right at you while you hold the notes in your hand and are frantically copying them onto the test. Also, be aware of what your colleagues are doing, as they would love to notify your professor or your dean of your actions. If it should ever come to that, and you know no one has no proof whatsoever that you cheated: deny, deny, deny! (Convince yourself as well as your adversaries you did not cheat, remaining firm and confident.) As long as they can not prove it but can only wonder or hear someone elses words against your own, youre in the clear. Dont get caught often though, or the authorities will get suspicious. The best policy is not to cheat.
Looking method
This is the simplest trick in the book, and involves simply peeking at the paper of another student. Try not to make it too obvious. Pretend you are cracking your neck or something like that.

Desk Method
1. 2. 3. 4. Write up some notes on a slip of paper. This method only works if you have the kind of desks where you can put stuff inside. Using a backpack might also work if you dont have these kind of desks. Put the notes deep down in the back/bottom of your desk/backpack before the test begins. Dont let anyone see you (best if done outside of class). 5. During the test, you can look in your desk/backpack and pretend to be looking for something when you actually are looking at your notes. 6. Removing something from your desk will make you less suspicious of cheating, as you are pretending to be looking for something when really you are looking at your notes for the test. 7. Put some extra pens/pencils/erasers/etc. in your desk or backpack so you can remove that. Remember to remove something that is a supply needed to do the test. 8. 9. Bring a flashlight if necessary. This is a very easy but complicated method that can be used for almost any test!
in your desk, look at the notes, and close the pencil. When done with the notes, and test, roll some chewed up gum in the wrapper and throw the evidence away.
Ideogram Method
1. 2. Know that ideograms are symbols used to represent words. Doodle something to represent a word for a test and nobody would think twice about it. Example The name Friedrich Nietzsche would translate into: 1. a doodle of Fred Flintstone (fred); A bag of money (rich); a ball of yarn with needle (knit as in Niet); a yin-yang chi symbol (chi). #*Those symbols would translate to: (fred)(rich)(knit)(chi) saying the words out loud easily reveals the name. 1. [This method works best with one word answers on tests without word banks and it helps if you are good at mad libs and drawing]
Backpack method
Leave your notes in an open backpack, which is covered by your leg. When the teacher isnt looking, move your leg to reveal the notes.
Paper Method
Maybe youre taking a vocabulary quiz or test, and you cant memorize anything. Here is a great idea for you. (You have to be prepared the day before) 1. 2. 3. Rewrite all of the spelling and the definition on a another paper, and that will be your final quiz/test The next day, you will sit at the back and take out the final quiz/test and other sheet of paper (This only works with if you have a hole in your desk, like in middle schools.) You put your final quiz inside the hole and try to look like youre writing and doing your quiz. 4. If you dont have a hole in your desk, then keep your book bag with you. Dont leave it in the floor but hanging in your seat. Keep it open. 5. When time is almost up, quickly switch the 2 papers and keep the final copy in the top of the desk. When the teacher is going to collect it, just hand it to him/her. 6. When the bell rings, take the other copy and crumple it up, and when you are going outside in the hallway for next class, just throw it out in the trashcan or if the teacher checks in the trashcan, then throw it in the hallway or your class trashcan.
Note: When switching papers, dont switch it when the teacher is next to you. If you dont want to switch, then keep the final copy in the floor and when you are going to hand it in, just pick it up, like your paper accidentally went to the floor, and later on hide the other copy.
Another note: Beware that if they are snitch and teachers pet anywhere. They just want to be perfect to the teacher, by telling on you. It is recommended you sit where no one is sitting.
3. 4.
Tape the cheat-sheet into your hood. Put your hoodie on backwards, so that the hood is in front of you. (If youre wearing a pullover hoodie, only put your arms in so that the hood is again in the front of your body.
5.
Scantron Method
1. This method will not work if the grades are automatically logged into the system and the machine is set to automatically mark an MCQ with more than one response (by the student) as wrong. 2. If you are taking a scantron test, (fill in the bubble tests often used in standardized tests, but also given by teachers) it will be graded by machine. However, you can fool the machine. If you are stuck between two answers, simply fill in both bubbles. The scantron will pick up on the darkest bubble. When the test is returned and you are checking it over with the class, pay attention. If the answer that the machine marked was correct, simply erase the incorrect bubble to make it appear as if you changed your mind on the test. If it marked it as incorrect, slightly erase the incorrect answer and tell your teacher that the scantron machine made an error and marked the less-darkened bubble. This works more with gullible teachers; some have been able to fool teachers many times with this method. However, do not do this on every test as your teacher will catch on eventually.
1. 2.
Make sure you bring a pencil case to class, preferably a clear one. Write the answers on a piece of paper and tape it on the underside of the lid, so the answers are visible.
3.
Bring the pencil case to class and use it for your test, quiz, or exam. Make sure its not entirely in the view of the teacher.
4.
Rubber Method
Note: Only works with thick rubbers. Before the test (at home, for example), take a rubber, and use a long, thin object (rulers work well) to saw through the middle of the rubber (the width, not length). Dont go so far as to snap it in half. Gently bend the rubber so that the middle is revealed. Write notes or anything else in the middle, and let the rubber go back to its normal position. During the test, simply take the rubber out of your pencil case, bend it in half (pretend to be fiddling about), memorize the notes, and write them down.
2.
Go inside, lock the door, and open the top for the toilet tank. Usually, the water level doesnt fill the tank all the way, so use that dry space to tape your notes to.
3.
Ask to go to the bathroom during the exam, after youve finished doing all the questions you know. If youre not allowed, accept it. Someone can escort you to the bathroom if needed.
4.
Go into the stall you chose, lock the door, and take a look at the notes. Try not to make much noise if there are other people in the bathroom.
5.
Flush when youre done, to make it sound authentic, and go back and write down the rest of the test.
6.
They sell erasable ink now, you can go to any store and buy one this may not work for some tests though, but if you do, do the test with this pen, and if you get to check it yourself, when the teacher says to get out a pen and she better not see a pencil take off the eraser part and put it in between your legs or something, then when you go to check it, erase the wrong answer and right it back, its in ink so she wont expect a thing!
Hat Method
This involves a hat, small handwriting, and good acting skills. 1. Get the this will never work look on your face, or a similar look that could be used as a prerequisite to taking ones hat off. 2. Take your hat off to wipe your brow with your sleeve. Your concealed page of notes should be visible inside the hat, where your forehead sits.
2.
Tell your teacher you didnt finish it. If he/she tells you to come in at a break time or at lunch, forget.
3. 4.
Bring your paper home, and look up the answers, and write your answer down. The next day, when you get the chance to finish the test, pull out your paper. Revise the answers as necessary, and write them down!
Calculator Method
For tests allowing calculators, use any sort of text-based memory to record all the equations, notes, theorems, proofs, etc. Create a fake, password protected program and use the text box. No teacher
will ever be able to access it. However, most exams do not allow programmable calculators and invigilators may check. Part 2. If you have a Scientific Calculator, preferably a TI- Silver Edition, you may use the green Alpha button to write in theorems and answers on it. This way, theres no physical proof you ever did anything wrong (unless your teacher sees the theorems or snatches the calculator out of your hand while youre working). If a suspicious teacher comes over, you hit Clear and the evidences gone. The one problem with this method is, you cant use your calculator while the answers are on the screen or youll erase your answers. So quickly jot down the theorems/ answers (lightly) on the test and hit Clear, in order to work with your Calculator.
Glare Method
This is for if you need to know a few things in a certain order or a list of things before the teacher hands out the test and you are given a minute to study a little. Write the answers on your desk only in a spot where you can see it if the glare from the light hits it. Once you are finished wipe it off for no evidence.
Lanyard Method
If you have any type of lanyard and know you have a test coming up a little more in advance (like three days or so) start wearing a lanyard to school like its something you want to start wearing. Make sure there are a few solid things on there that could eventually cover a slip of paper. The day before the test, write some notes on a slip of paper that can be blocked by the other things on the lanyard. Then, add it to the lanyard in between a few things. Since its thin, its likely no one will notice it being there. During the test, when you need an answer, start playing with it and peek at your notes. Dont
do this very often during the test, and if you sit in the front of the classroom, you may need to ask to go to the bathroom to look over them. When youre done, flush the piece of paper down the toilet to destroy all/any evidence. For good measure, you might want to continue wearing the lanyard afterward, and you can keep using it for tests.
Sweatband Method
Works better if youre an athletic person 1. Start to wear a sweatband a few weeks before the test, as if to make it seem like an item that youre going to wear periodically. 2. 3. 4. Prepare a mini sheet of paper and attach it to the sweatband. Check your notes by taking it off and then when done, put it on the same wrist. Rid the notes, and continue wearing the sweatband for a week or so.
You can also write on the back of the I.D. with pencil. Its hard to see, but in the right light is visible only to you. When done, its easily erasable it with your thumb. *
The night before the test, write your formulas on the back of a sheet of paper. 2. Make sure they are light and in pencil! 3. Turn to the back every time you need a formula. 4. Erase the evidence and turn the test in! Whiteout Cheat If the notes are required to be handed in after a test: 1. Write your cheats on the page in pen. 2. Use the tape type of whiteout and whiteout all your notes. 3. On the day of the test, use an eraser and rub it off. 4. When youre done, whiteout your notes. And doodle on it so it wont look suspicious. The Long Sleeve Cheat Write some notes on your arm, the front, facing you, where your veins are. 2. During the test, peek inside your sleeve but do not pull it down. 3. At the end of the test, make sure your sleeve is pulled up at least to your knuckles. 4. Wash the notes off afterwards. The Hand Glove Cheat
If you have hand gloves that have sleeves, obviously, all you need to do is fold the piece of paper so it fits in the sleeve, and then write notes on the front of the piece of paper. Its a good idea to start wearing these hand gloves a few days beforehand so no one gets suspicious. You can buy these at mall stores like Hot Topic and Claires. The Klutz Cheat 1. Sit next to friend while taking the test. 2. Have your friend accidentally drop their paper. 3. Pick up the paper slowly and look at the answers while giving it back.
Wallet Cheat
Write some notes on a paper thats green and shaped like a dollar. 2. Get a wallet (with real money, of course!) and put your money inside. 3. Bring your wallet to school and put it out in front of you. 4. If the teacher asks why you have a wallet out, say you want to make sure nobody steals it. 5. When your teacher returns to his/her desk, pull out the money and notes. 6. Cheat away!
The MP3
1. With a cheap microphone, do a voice recording of any and all notes you could need for the exam. Keep every chapter, section, etc. on a different track so it can be easily accessed.
2. 3.
Store the audio file on the music player. Ask if you can listen to music while you work. Use the I did all my studying listening to my music, so state-dependent theory saysblah blah blah excuse, if you must. If listening is not allowed, put an earphone up your sleeve, or wear a hood. (It is easy to conceal a small earphone without a conspicuous hood if you have long hair.)
4.
Note: This requires serious preparation and work. It also helps if you are good with Photoshop. It only works if you are allowed to take a bottle of coke or similar into the test. You need to have access to a scanner 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Peel the label off a full coke bottle. Scan the label into an image-editing program like Adobe Photoshop. Delete the nutritional information and type in whatever text you need. Print out the label and stick it onto the bottle. Take the bottle into the test and place it so you can see the information. When you need, look, but dont stare, otherwise it will seem suspicious.
Bathroom Method
This is the second easiest way not to get caught (the first is not to cheat in the first place). Note that the person giving the test may have caught on to the trend in bathroom cheating and may not let you go.
1.
Have a calculator or some exam notes in your pocket and while taking the test, write questions down on a piece of scrap paper.
2.
Go to the bathroom, whip out the cheats and work out your answers.
Know the teacher, know the buzz-words, and be able to BS it well. Sorry, no silver bullet here. Alternatively:
1.
Get some plasters or stickers and write down your information, buzz words, etc. on the sticky side of them.
2. 3.
Stick them on your hand, wrist or arm on exam day. When the test comes, lift up the plaster to reveal your helpful hints.
Whoops Technique
1. 2. 3. Manage to obtain a copy of the test. Mark the correct answers on this copy. When you get the actual test, write some stuff on it and pretend to be thinking (or scrambling if it is a different version). 4. Just before tests are collected, pull out your original copy and stash the other; and turn in the good test. 1. If it is a different version, you may still be able to get away with it by turning in the wrong one, and when asked, say it was the one they gave you, and stick to that (this works best for essay type tests).
Hidden Cheat
1. Write out your exam notes on a small piece of paper before the test, and slip the paper into the shaft of your pen.
2.
During the test, you can just take apart your pen and read the information needed. As always, make sure you dont get seen.
Gum Wrapper
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Buy some gum before the test not in a package, but some that comes individually wrapped. Open the package and carefully unwrap a stick of gum, so as not to rip the wrapper. Take a small sheet of paper, write your info and put it under the gum, wrapping the stick again. Put it back in the pack on top and take a few out so it looks like a pack youve had for a few days. During the exam, when the proctor isnt looking, eat the gum and read your info. Pretend to get tired of the stick and put it back in the wrapper so you destroy your cheat notes and thus dont get caught. Alternatively: 1. 1. Get a pack of gum that comes in a circular tin, like Ice Breakers Sours gum/mints. Cut out a circular piece of paper the size of the tin and open the to share side to read the notes. Only have a few pieces of gum in there, though, so that you wont look suspicious when you throw it away. 1. This works even better under the padding of Altoids.
Band-Aid
This usually only works with small notes, and if you are an athlete (football, skateboarding) this works even more effectively. 1. 1. Get the biggest Band-Aid you can. Write the some notes on the cloth-like part of the band-aid. Red (blood), brown (dried blood), or yellow/green (pus) works best, but you could really use any color. 2. 3. Put it on your elbow or knee. Scratch the Band-Aid as if it itches when test time comes. Then, act like youre going to fix your band-aid. 4. 5. Pretend youre looking at the wound, but dont pull it completely off (you dont have a wound!). Look at the answers.
Do not take the band-aid off during school! Administrators will see youre faking.
Desk Cheat
1. Before the test, get a good sheet of notes, formulas, complicated questions and answers, etc. and have it all summarized on a sheet of paper. 2. Take the sheet and glue/tape it on to the bottom of the desk that you KNOW that you will be sitting at. Place it so that the top is at side of the desk furthest from you. 3. During the test, simply drop your pencil under the desk, reach for it, look up and enjoy your answers (do not stare for too long or the teacher might notice).
Desk Cheat 2
1. Print out a small strip of paper the thickness of the desk with the answers and put small strips of tape on the ends. 2. Tape the paper to the edge of your desk or the desk closest to you, and if the teacher walks by, cover it with your arm.
Desk Cheat 3
This works best in the back of class. 1. Before class, when the teacher isnt there, write formulas etc. on the desk in pencil.
1. If the teacher walks by, just slide your paper over it. 2. If youre not in the back of the class, or if the teacher periodically patrols the desk aisles, try writing very, very light on the desk so it doesnt stand out. 3. Instead of writing out entire words or sentences, just use one letter (preferably a starting letter) to remind you what the full answer is, and just spread them out across your desk, instead of writing them all in one clumped area. 4. Another good place to write is in the small indent where you can put a pencil at the edge of your desk, as it is both difficult to see that spot while walking by, and you can place a pencil over your cheats without suspicion. 2. When class is over you can simply erase the notes. (This works extremely well with light colored desks and pencil; use of pen isnt recommended.)
Desk Cheat 4
Before class attach double sided (circled) tape to the desk. Sneak a normal sized sheet of notes. Read off your lap. If you feel threatened, pop your knee up and attach the paper to the top of the desk. Remember, less motion means less visibility.
Note-Belt Cheat
1. Make sure you have a belt, and cut out a piece of paper slightly shorter than the belt is tall/wide, and about 6-10 inches long. 2. Write out all of your notes on this piece of paper (one side only), then attach it to the inside of your belt. 3. 4. Come test-day, make sure you have this belt on you, and that it is relatively loose. When you want to read the notes, simply suck in your gut, and read from the inside of your belt. This may work better if you tuck in your shirt beforehand, so that it does not seem odd that you are lifting up your shirt.
2.
If it is thick enough, write your cheat-sheet/notes on the back of the label (the white part that sticks to the bottle) or attach the label to a sheet of thin paper with a glue stick or tape.
3. 4.
Re-attach the label to the bottle. Look through the bottle at just the right angle, and you will be able to read your notes through the clear water within.
can just follow the friend along with his/her test without really having to worry about looking up. However, this only works on multiple choice tests unless you develop some kind of numerical tapping/sign system. Also, if the friend is loud enough, multiple people can benefit from his/her answers. The only problem with this is that it can be rather conspicuous and your friend will go down with you if you get caught, or worse, only the friend will get caught unless he/she tells on you.
Musical Cheat
Only works for Band, Orchestra, and possibly Gym, in rare cases. This is not for those with sensitive hands. Do not use this cheat unless you are desperate. 1. 2. Rub, scratch, or bang your hand to get it red, but dont hurt yourself. When it looks red and irritated, go to the nurses office (works best with gullible nurses) and (convincingly) say you just slammed your hand in your locker. Look upset and pained. They will most likely give you ice (which will make your hand even more red). 3. Go to your Orchestra or Band teacher and explain to them how you slammed your hand in a locker and are now in serious pain. 4. 5. 6. Unless they are totally evil, they wont make you play your cello, oboe, French horn, or viola. Kick back, relax, and watch the rest of the class suffer as they play Symphony Number Nine. You can do this for Gym too, but Gym teachers usually are a little stricter about injuries and more likely to force you to participate anyway. 7. You could drop out of band.
Older Student
Memorize the answers to a test from an older version of the test given or sold to you by an older student. This is almost infallible, and will also help you learn if you do the test yourself beforehand.
In-Desk Cheat
Only works if you are not in total view of the teacher. 1. 2. Have your notebook with all your math questions and/or answers on it and just shove it in your desk Take it out and act like you are using it for paper to do the equation on.
Pencil-to-Desk Cheat
1. Get to class a few minutes early, then pull out your study guide/notes that you will need on the test.
2.
Place them on the desk and pretend to write marginal notes on the papers, but really copy some short, abbreviated notes onto the desk. Try to write really fast.
3.
When your teacher starts passing out tests, put your notes away and use what you have written on your desk. This trick is effective for short, hard to memorize notes because you can easily cover up the lead writing with your forearm and erase it afterward.
Locker Cheat
1. 2. Do not take your notes with you to the test. Instead, leave them in your locker. Go over the test and do all of the questions you know. Make a mental note of the ones you dont know the answers to. 3. 4. 5. Ask to go to the bathroom. If you are allowed to go, go to your locker, and use your notes to get the answers you need. Return ASAP, before you forget them! This works best if your locker is relatively close to where the test is taking place. Its extremely important that you be very quick while youre doing this. Also, this method will not work for tests where someone has to escort you to the bathroom, or if you really do need to use the restroom.
Wristband Cheat
1. 2. Write some study notes on a small piece of paper and slip it under a wristband. When the teacher isnt looking, slide it out and take a peek.
You can put your head down on your desk as if you are thinking, and look. You can even ask to go to the washroom and look at them there. Make sure that the paper is not sticking out!
Tissue Cheat
1. 2. Write the information needed onto a tissue. Put the tissue into a tissue box in the classroom (this works best with a tissue box in the back of the classroom) before the test starts. 3. At some point during the test, go to the box and pull out the tissue.
4.
Face away from the class and pretend to blow your nose, when youre actually looking at the answers. An easier way is to have your own tissue in your pocket. Its less complicated and more likely for you to not get caught.
1. 1. 1. If there are many people who actually use tissue during class, alternatively, you can have the tissue in your pocket, and then blow your nose in the back of the room. Dispose of the tissue in the trash.
Headache Cheat
1. 2. Write your information onto your hand. Pretend youre under traumatic stress during the test by rubbing your eyes or head as if you have a headache. 3. Look at the answers on your hand while you rub your head and/or eyes. Its almost foolproof, since all youre doing are the natural reactions of one under stress. This will not work with teachers who check hands before the test starts.
Scraps
Take advantage of the allowance of scrap-paper by pre-making your own. Write the notes, formula, equations, symbolic functions, etc. so that you can just look at them when you are taking the test. Make sure that you are still lightly tracing your pre-wrote notes during the test so your teacher wont be suspicious.
5. The Invisible Ink: (suggested for people who know that they will be taking their exams in their own classroom): Using security ink that shows up under UV light, write your cheats on the wall before the exam starts (make sure that the wall that youll be writing on has a small column near it and is discreet, for example below desk level). When you get stuck, focus a UV torch on the invisible ink, and your answer is revealed. Your friends could also bring torches to view the same answers (but ensure you dont tell anyone who is likely to snitch on you if they are caught). 6. In-Pen Trick: (works best if the teacher uses study carols or dividers to keep you from cheating off each other) You will need a pen with a see-through body so you are able to see the ink cartridge. Print a study guide or small cheat sheet in very small font, but not too small that the writing is illegible (size 6 or 7 is recommended). Next, dismantle the pen and tape the cheat sheet on the inside circumference of the pens body. Put the pen together again. You should be able to see the cheat sheet inside the pen, if you cannot, disassemble the pen and replace the paper until you can see it. 7. The Shoe Trick: (This works best if you have shoes you dislike or on Converse that you enjoy writing on.) First, you have to put everything you need to know on the sole or the side of your shoe (the side that if your crossing your legs, you can view) When you are taking the test, act like your crossing you legs (the way the men do it) and look at the side of your shoe. Then when a teacher is walking past, put your leg down. 8. Skirt Trick 1: (FOR GIRLS WITH SKIRTS) All you have to do is write what you need on your leg where it is covered by your skirt. Slide it up during the test. Teachers cannot ask a girl to lift her skirt up to reveal what you wrote. 9. Skirt Trick 2: (FOR GIRLS WITH SKIRTS) This works best with short skirts. Write the answers on a piece of paper or cloth and pin them to the inside of your skirt. Lift it up when nobody is watching, and you have your answers. Even if you are caught no teacher, especially a male one, is going to ask you to show your answers.
test, or all the answers on a piece of lined paper. Fold it up, and fasten tape on the back of it. Stick it underneath the toilet (lowest point you can), or on the wall behind it. Go to the restroom and review. Nobody should look under there. Dont be dumb dont put your name on it. Try typing it up.
Now simply step on your binder, and voila! You can see the answers. This method only works if you have a see through binder.
Invisible 2
Take a sheet of paper and lay it on a different sheet and press hard on the pencil and write the notes on the sheet. Then when you take the test take the sheet that was under the sheet that you wrote on out. Then shade the page and like magic the answers are there then when you are done (make sure you have a big eraser) erase the shaded pencil marks and take it with you when you leave the room. This way, no one will have any evidence you did this. Dont throw it away- someone may find it in the trash, maybe the teacher. If the teacher comes by, flip the sheet over. Make sure you have some stuff on it and there you go.
Day Before
Get a copy of the test the day before or in the morning before class. You can do this by staying after school to get help from the teacher. Usually teachers leave the room for any reason, grab a copy of the test and put it into your bag. Be careful, some teachers number their tests and know if its missing. You could make a copy then return it later. If your teacher wont leave the room, tell him/her
that someone is at the door for her and called her name, or have a friend call her phone. If your teacher is strict and is too suspicious, you could go to another teacher that teaches the same class. To get him out of the room say Mr/s. _____ wants to talk to you and cant get hold of your phone for some reason. Once you have the test, go home and look it up on the Internet or in your notes or in text books. Put your answers on a separate piece of paper then try to memorize them or use one of the other methods. Be careful about grabbing the wrong test or homework. Usually the teacher will put the test into a drawer or on top of her desk, dont be afraid to look around.
Nerd Cheat
If you have a friend that really smart and he/she trusts you and you trust him/her, ask for answers. If he/she is far, (and if you have the guts), sneak without the teacher looking. This method is the riskiest of them all. If you want to lessen trouble, use mouthing or something to communicate to your friend if they are far and easy to get seen. Also use other types of signals to contact them.
Folder Cheat
Get two pocket folders and put them upright, like in second grade, to be kind of funny. If your teacher is strict, do not do Just pretend to be silly with the folders and hide your cheat sheet or study guide in your desk. Pretend to look confused and put your head on the desk, look inside at the answers. Only attempt this if teacher stays in front of room.
If you have one of these teachers who have stuff written all over the board and its full of due dates, random stuff, and funny notes to the teacher from students, this is a bit risky but extremely helpful. Before class, preferably when the teacher is out of the room, write down some acronyms or stuff to help you remember answers to the test. If you are really daring you might just be able to conceal notes between lines or in corners. You can also do this by writing on the floor, the wall, behind a bookcase youre near, etc. It also can be helpful if your teacher is blind, and wont easily see the notes.
not to take so long; teachers likely notice who finishes last and especially if the student does surprisingly well given that it took them so long to complete it (for the excuse I was being careful and taking my time can only work so much). Theyre bound to get suspicious.
Nailology
Clip your nails from left to right at different heights. If your nails are short you may only be able to do true or false. If your nails are long, create a scheme for multiple choice questions, e.g.: 1/4 cut is A. you may be able to pull off more then one answer per nail if youre good at nail clipping. This only works in those times when you manage to get your hands on the answer sheet.
Nail Polish
(works for girls) If you somehow have the answers to a multiple choice or true false, paint your nails all one color. Then do polka dots or stripes or another pattern once you come up with a color coder. Just make sure to remember which colors stand for which letter!
down the clear part is between your legs. When you need to look at your notes, just spread your legs. Also avoid Velcro, as will arouse suspicion.
Bracelet Method
If you manage to get your hands on an answer sheet before the test, make yourself a bracelet with different colors of string. Itll look like one of those knotted friendship bracelets, but match each color to a letter and youll be all set. For example if A: Green, B: Yellow, and C: Pink if the answers were B, C, A, A, B then it would go yellow, pink, green, green, yellow.
Bookmark Cheat
If a teacher asks you to bring a book for when you are done the test, bring a bookmark with notes on it. Some bookmarks have, say.. multiplication 1- 12 on them. And make sure to hide the bookmark all the way in the book. If youre done you can throw it away if not needed to get rid of evidence or erase the marks.
This method was not mentioned above, and it will most likely only work on a math test. You will need something to write with and on. Group your answers and on the paper, write Lock #1 (the # represents the set of 3 problems you want answers for, so if you wanted answers for problems 4 to 6 on your test, you would write Lock #2,and so on) and write 3 test answers, and separate them with commas. For example, if my first set of answers were 135, 23, and 56, I would write something like Lock #1- 135,23, 56, so if someone looks through my bag or if someone looks at me while I am looking at my answers, they will only think thats a lock combination of mine at school, or wherever; when its really answers to my first 3 problems on my exam that my teachers going to give back to me tomorrow! If anyone asks about the big numbers, just say you accidentally misplaced a comma. Be sure to have your answers memorized before the test. Lastly, this will only work if you are given the same exact test in 2 or more sessions. And dont forget to write down the questions you need on a scrap of paper or on your hand (if someone questions, just say its your after school plans, or locker combo like before). Hand is better because the teacher may question the torn paper off the test. If you have to tear paper off the test, just say it was given to you like that
Eye-Glasses Method

If you have glasses take a bit of paper write your notes on them fold it up and put it in the hinge. When you need them take of your glasses and take the paper, and unfold it If the teacher ask what your doing say your hinge has a gap and is Un-even and your just adjusting the paper.
2. 3.
Then when done fold it back up put it back and continue. Throw away the paper later.
