Ok so we have been given the essay question for our religion exam, which i have semi remembered off by heart but the thing is their are a bunch of cheaters at our school who use their Iphone to take photos of their essays and they bring them into the exam, they have done this for business studies as well as economics. What do you guys think of this?? Is their anyone at your school doing this?

I wouldn't recommend directly dishing out names to your teacher because there is a possibility it could back fire, however i would advise having a word with your teacher asking them to keep a closer eye on things.

Anyway, I thought you weren't allowed to bring phones, or any gadgets into the exam?

They will obviously get caught.

Let your teacher know about it, or perhaps a head teacher if you're really concerned about it.

But in the end, they will fail (or do poorly) at the HSC. Let them be fooled now, they won't have learned anything for the duration of the year, will have no experience in studying nor with responding to exam questions. Then you can laugh (not so loudly, as you will distract others) in the HSC exams and thereafter when they get poor results from long-term abuse of the system where as you will be fine as you worked hard to gain success.

So in the end, no matter what you do, Karma will come back around and bite 'em on the backside. n_n Try not to worry about it too much, and just focus on achieving your marks justly. :)

I'm against cheating. If i ever witness a case of this happening, yes I will report it. Because in the end, it's only hindering my ranks, and my marks.
