Cheating for extra time...?

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation

<p>So while I was listening to the proctor about getting scores canceled I thought of an interesting way to cheat / get extra time. Tell me if you think this would actually work. You're taking 1 - 2 subject tests (not math) and you feel you need more time, so you sign up for a math test. When you're taking your final test (math) flip to whichever section it is you wanted to work on again and after 30 - 40 minutes fill in random bubbles in your math section and say your calculator is malfunctioning. (Just put in dead batteries or something) Your score gets canceled for math no questions asked and you got 30 - 40 minutes extra working time. (Note not to take too much time on the "math section" or the proctor might think it's in your best interest to just finish the test)</p>

<p>Thoughts? >.>;;</p>

<p>yes it can work easily but u cannot cancel math scores after 40 minutes working on them. it’d be too suspicious. i’d rather fill in random bubbles and use that new policy of sending only wanted scores to colleges.</p>

<p>or… you could be honest… and study… and take the tests in the allotted amount of time… WHAT A CONCEPT…</p>

4

<p>lol, something tells me you’re used to doing this kind of thing…</p>

5

<p>in all honesty, i never cheat on any form of exams. not because im honest or believe in idea that being honest will pay off.
Only because im too lazy to cheat</p>

6

<p>really, why risk it? aaron100 put it best.</p>

<p>That cheating method sounds a little more difficult to pull off than studying, IMO.</p>

<p>Our proctor read off of the sheet and said that if you do cancel your scores from a test day because of a malfunctioning calculator, all of the scores from tests you took that day will also be cancelled.</p>

<p>You’re wrong, h00dr1chh. If your calculator malfunctions, you CAN cancel the math test where it failed. However, echoing what was said above, I think cheating is WAY too risky. Especially with CB.</p>

<p>1 hour is plenty of time.</p>

<p>That wouldn’t work. SAT II proctors are trained to look over your answer sheet before they collect them. Part of what they are looking for is every section of the test being filled out. If you were in the center for three tests, and they only see two collected, they turn your answer sheet in as “provisional”.</p>

<p>Instead, you should just take two test and finish one really quickly and then just go on to the next section. I also think that you would benefit from extra time in the math more than you would in other sections. The fact of the matter is, if you’re going to cheat just be prepared to deal with the consequences (worst case scenario consequence) if you get caught.</p>
