I cheated on a math test and I am afraid that I will get caught.

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I was absent on a test day and my math teacher gave tests back the day I was going to make up the test. And I saw some questions on the test and asked a classmates how to do problems and I pretended that I already took the test. The test was just same.</p>

<p>I am so anxious at the moment. I do not know why I cheated on it. I don't know what to do. I can't calm.. I really don't want to go to school tomorrow because of this. I have been exceeding math and I really don't know why I was so impulsive to cheat... My math teacher would probably not notice it, however, I am afraid my classmates would report it to teacher. </p>

<p>Please give me advices..</p>

<p>Pray you don’t get caught</p>

<p>If you’re not cheating you’re not trying…</p>

<p>Seriously, though, I wouldn’t stress out, it’ll just make it more noticeable when you have that teacher again for class. And if your classmates tell your teacher then they really need to re-evaluate their lives and what they are putting their efforts towards :)</p>

<p>I don’t mean to direct this towards to you, but I don’t understand why people cheat. I mean… I guess I understand “why” they cheat, but it seems like such a counter-productive action. I don’t mean copying homework or finding out how a test was from a class before, but it seems ridiculous that people would actually look at someone else’s test.</p>

<p>First of all, you have no idea how the other person did and you’re putting your faith into that person not only getting the question(s) right, but that you also don’t get caught. It seems like a recipe for disaster and I’d rather just take the bad grade than risk getting caught and possibly getting the question wrong anyway.</p>

<p>Just my opinion though.</p>

<p>I don’t think it’s likely that you’ll be caught unless this classmate has something against you, but I hope you’ve learned something for the future. </p>

<p>Well posting online for the whole world to see isn’t exactly improving your chances of evading capture…</p>

<p>Only way you get caught is if someone tells on you.</p>

<p>While I’m glad that you’ve realized what you’ve done is wrong, it’d be best to put this behind you and move on. In terms of actually getting caught, chances are low. As you’ve said, most of the class thinks you’ve already taken the test and those who you asked for help probably got high enough scores to not really care enough to you rat you out. </p>

<p>Hopefully you’ve learned your lesson and don’t go down the slippery slope that many follow. </p>

<p>I don’t think you’ll get caught and it doesn’t seem like the teacher can prove that you’ve cheated unless students say something about it, which they probably won’t.</p>

<p>Learn from the experience and just don’t do it again. There’s no changing what happened unless you want to dig yourself into a deeper hole.

<p>Please do not post on this thread anymore unless the OP states that he/she requires more advice. It’s nearly a month old.</p>

<p>I thought that we can post on any thread unless it’s already been archived, closed, or there’s no bad language being used. </p>

<p>From a moderator’s POV, a month is not that old. Generally, I get rankled when the thread is over a year old.</p>

<p>Having said that, OP is no longer active and as a result, I am closing this thread.</p>
