Genius Ways People Cheated On Tests

By Anna Collins 1 year ago

1. He's got something up his sleeve

Image source: Reddit
Now this is pretty ingenious because at first glance it just looks like this guy is knuckling down and concentrating. It's only when you really focus that you notice something's up. He's placed his sleeve with something inside it so that he can use this mobile underneath.

2. This person was only allowed one study card...

Image source: Reddit
Now this person is clearly a genius already. Their teacher allowed them one study card, so instead of having one set of notes this person has three in different colours - they've even brough coloured glasses to be able to see them. Surely if they have ideas like this, they'd ace the test anyway?

3. A very calculated way to cheat

Surely this person has to get 100% on their text with Google on their side? Despite the fact they've too lazy to study for their test, they're dissected a calculator and hidden their iPhone inside the calculator. This earns at least 10 points for resourcefulness.

4. This person is truly dedicated to cheating

Image source: Reddit
If this person had put the same amount of effort into actually studying for the test as they have on cheating...they probably wouldn't have had to cheat anyway! They've not only remade the label exactly how the original looks but they've replaced the answers to their test in the exact same format. If this were a design test they'd get an A plus.

5. They've nailed it

Image source: Reddit
Okay, this is pure genius. While we don't condone cheating...this has hit a whole new level of creativity and sneakiness. Nobody could ever see that this person has notes inside their nails. And, it'll just look like they are studying their nails when really they are cheating.

6. This class in Guatemala decided to cheat together

Image source: Reddit
If cheating could be wholesome, this would be it. This class has come together to cheat on their test - rather than one person cheating alone. They've put up the answers on the pole outside the class so they can see it through the window. Now there's no evidence to find inside the class and they can take the wrap together if they're found out!

7. The most genius cheating method ever...

Image source: Reddit
This HAS to be the best cheating method ever. Not only is it totally inconspicuous, but there's also space to write a lot of information AND it will appear that he's just playing with his hair rather than cheating. This guy really went the extra mile with his cheating method.

8. A little book of answers

Image source: Reddit
The great thing about this ring is that you can attach more than one 'book' to it without looking too suspicious. The downside is that how do they write more than one word per page? And how can they READ it? We'd need a magnifying glass to be able to decipher this...

9. This person has put a scroll inside their watch!

Image source: Reddit
It's a digital watch which has been converted into a roll of answers. Once you remove the screen you can pull out the answers to see it all. Best of all, when they glance to check their notes it will just look like they are checking the time and can't wait for the test to be over!

10. A clever kind of manicure

Image source: Reddit
Instead of this person putting the answers behind their nails and hiding it, they've gone a little bolder and just put the answers straight onto their naiks. The answers are so small that from a reasonable distance you'd just think that this was some kins of cool manicure pattern.

11. Dissecting a carton of orange juice

Image source: Reddit
Okay who would even think to dissect a carton of orange juice? I mean, how could anybody ever suspect you were cheating this way? Whoever came up with this really does deserve some credit for their genius method. With tiny writing it really does fit on a lot of answers.

12. The answers hidden underneath a band-aid

Image source: Reddit
Okay, little bit gross, but genius nonetheless. In some ways it's a low blow, pretending you've got some kind of wound that needs a band-aid and really you're just an evil genius hiding some of the answers underneath. On the downside, you really can't fit very much on at all.

13. A clever OOOTD choice

Image source: Reddit
Now this is less genius but clever nonetheless. This person has made a very smart outfit choice which shows his the periodic table. The thing is, surely this person wouldn't be allowed into the exam room with these on? And, we don't think this person will be using this pair of trainers as a fashion statement ever again

14. All of the ingredients to a successful exam

Image source: Reddit
Pure genius. This person really has what it takes to succeed in an exam, they clearly have the brains so it's beyond us why they need to cheat in the first place! But you can't deny that this is one of the most clever ways to cheat and it looks totally like a legit coke bottle.

15. The answers right there in his sleeve

Image source: Reddit
It's simple, it's easy and it's super effective. It's not as genius as some of these methods yet there's a certain genius to the simplicity of this. This guy hasn't over complicated his cheating method or spent too much time on it, yet it would still be super hard to get caught meaning we have: a lazy genius.

16. A small book of answers right inside an eraser

Image source: Reddit
Who would ever think to confiscate an eraser? Nobody. Of all of the items in an exam, an eraser is one of the most staple and inconspicuous items of all. This makes this person's methos of cheating one of the most genius. Because they haven't risked getting caught out.

17. Someone who just does not care

Image source: Reddit
There's nothing genius about this, yet in a way you have to credit the fact that the cheating is so blatantly obvious that it's one of those things you couldn't expect anybody to do, and so you may not even catch them. You've got to admire (or strongly dislike) the sheer blatancy of this person.

18. This person has even managed to get around the clear bottle rule

Image source: Reddit
So exam halls banned opaque bottles for this very reason, because the answers could be hidden right inside. Yet, this person has even managed to wriggle around this room and still manage to cheat by printing the answers on the INSIDE of the label. Who would even think to check there?

19.She sellotaped the entire essay to her legs

Image source: Reddit
This person really didn't just want  a couple of words to cheat, just as a little reminder of what to say. No, she wants the entire essay written out for her so that she can copy it out in the exam. She's sellotaped it to her legs and it's hidden under her skirt. Let's just hope it wasn't a windy day...

20. Get yourself some custom made cheat shoes

Image source: Reddit
Getting custom made soles to cheat is a different level of dedication. On problem, how do you take off your shoe and copy down the answers from the bottom of the shoe in the exam without raising anybody's suspicions. It may look clever but there's certainly some major flaws.

21. The entire page of notes clearly wasn't enough

Image source: Reddit
So cheating isn't good full stop - it's lazy. But as we've seen there are methods of cheating where the genius behind it has to be appreciated. Here, this person has literally been given the go ahead to use a full book of notes, and they've still felt that this was too hard so they've carved out the inside of a book to place their phone hidden inside.

22. A fake hollowed out pencil

Image source: Reddit
There's nothing about having an extra pencil in your exam stationary equipment that could ever suggest you're cheating. So this person really is a genius for getting a fake hollowed out pencil and rolling up a paper with all of the exam answers on it.

23. A genius ruler inside a ruler

Image source: Reddit
The benefit of having a ruler inside a ruler is not that you have two rulers and you can measure more...it's that you can write the answers on each side and then hide it again when someone is looking. It's genius and this person did not get caught out!

24. Just right the answers right inside your shoes

Image source: Reddit
So kicking off shoes like this exam wouldn't be too questionable. But, staring at your feet for the next half an hour trying to discern what the tiny writing days may definitely attract some suspicions. Nevertheless we've got to give credit where credit's due because it is pretty genius.

25. The upgraded write it on your hand trick

Image source: Reddit
Before all these genius cheating methods we liked to keep it simple, and one of the most frequent ways was to write it on your hand. Okay, so it's not fool proof by any means, but this person has upgraded it by hiding it on the inner part of the finger. Genius.

26. Pencil is basically invisible ink right?

Image source: Reddit
There's something really smart about this, despite the fact that it looks kinda dumb. On the back of the calculator is so much space that this person has made the most of cheating and filled the entire thing with tiny writing. What's most clever is that the pencil is hardly visible apart from the person looking closely at it.

27. The answers disguised as a pen

Image source: Reddit
Not only has this person managed to hid an entire page of notes inside the pen, it's also colour coded. That's some serious dedication to cheating. It does make your wonder, why not just put the same amount of time and effort into learning the answers...then there'd be no need to cheat at all!

28. Hidden in plain sight

Image source: Reddit
It's another pen trick. Yet this time instead of the pan having the answers inside, these have been written on the outside of the pen hidden completely in plain site. They are risking the assumption that what looks like a pen could never be suspected that have answers printed all over it. And they were right. This person never got caught.

29. Click for the answer

Image source: Reddit
We've all heard of those pens which you click at the top and it changes colour, right? Well this is even better - if you're a struggling student that is anyway. You clock for one answer, you click again for another. All in all there's only around 4 clicks so there's only so much cheat material you can get.

30. Keeping it simple...but genius

Image source: Reddit
You're a teacher looking at the class and all you can see is the back of a calculator. It's perfect. This person has found the most effective, yet laziest approach to cheating. But from the front of the class, you'd never know that this person was sat googling all of the answers.
