I saw someone cheating today

<p>He was sitting across from me, and kept flipping ahead in his book. At one point we were in section 2, and he was flipping through section 10. I told the proctor during a break, but I doubt they'll do anything...</p>

<p>you deserve a cookie</p>

<p>butternut that's beyond pathetic, next time focus on your own test, and stop worrying about what other kids are doing</p>

<p>he'll probably not even break 1600 (out of 2400).. if someone has to cheat that much, they probably suck at these tests.. don't worry about it</p>

<p>Arachnotron- ahh yes, because I make morla decisions based off of what South Park says.</p>

<p>stop snitchin'</p>

<p>Are you guys serious? The integrity of the test is only maintained by the integrity of the test-takers. This guy is getting a score he doesn't deserve and undermining any credibility the exam has left.</p>

<p>Thank you for reporting him.</p>

<p>My friend cheated like a madman and got an 1850 (he would have gotten about a 1200 if he took it without cheating) and because it won't affect me, I think it's hilarious. Butternut, this kid isn't going to beat you out for a spot at some college so just get over it, he'll probably take the test again and get caught.</p>

<p>I don't understand how his flipping ahead would benefit him. If he were to flip ahead, wouldn't that mean he finished the current section early, and if he didn't, then he left like a lot of blanks? And if he finished the section early and didn't like check his answers, doesn't that mean he knows the stuff?</p>

<p>Does he flip ahead because he doesn't have enough time to finish every section? It seems like 99% of people finish each SAT section with ~5 minutes to spare, no need to flip ahead..</p>

<p>I applaud you for reporting him, Butternut. If we lived our lives with the mentality of "it doesn't affect me so I don't care" then my, oh my, what a horrible world it'd be. I guess we'd just look the other way while people are murdered b/c it doesn't affect us personally...</p>

<p>Who made you a cheating police? I hope colleges you're applying at find out about this, and they all reject you. They might not like the cheater, but they also don't like a snitcher. Shows weak character.</p>

<p>I don't see the point of flipping ahead, either, but I guess he did....I guess I'm just suprised that someone cheated in such a blatantly obvious way....</p>

<p>"Who made you a cheating police? I hope colleges you're applying at find out about this, and they all reject you. They might not like the cheater, but they also don't like a snitcher. Shows weak character."</p>

<p>Actually, lots of colleges have an honors code, and it only works if someone reports cheating. So I'm not quite sure how you came up with this. Colleges certainly wouldn't reject someone for showing integrity.</p>

<p>^ That's what I was going to say. LOL, that statement was so dumb. </p>

<p>I can't remember, does CB ask you to report cheating incidents? If so, then BC was completely justified in yet another respect.</p>

<p>Yeah they ask you to report cheating. I think you're actually supposed to contact them directly, but telling the supervisor probably works too.</p>

<p>If you saw him cheating, doesn't that mean you looked at his test?
Isn't looking at someone's test while testing cheating?
Oh the irony.</p>

<p>the only kid i know with a 2400 flipped from section to section like crazy, i saw him doing it. you can tell yourself that "people who cheat are most likely getting average scores" but in reality the people who cheat are often the super-determined high scorers</p>

<p>I kind of agree with chok.</p>

<p>I don't think the average scorer cares that much about their scores as to consider cheating. </p>

<p>The people who score good seem like they are more likely to cheat in order to go from like 2350 to 2400 or something like that.</p>
