I saw someone cheating today

<p>Why would flipping sections be at all helpful? There's more than enough time to finish each one...</p>

<p>Well a math genius might really benefit from an extra five minutes in the reading or writing section. I think it depends on the person really..</p>

<p>I mean not saying it would insanely help you, because if you didn't know the information, then you probably wouldn't get that much of a better score...that being said you could find out which section is experimental...find out the order of the sections and gauge your mental focus...</p>

<p>it's an unfair advantage and should not be allowed...but tattling is dumb.</p>

<p>I find that I finish every section with at least 5 minutes to spare... Most of the time I've got enough time to check things over multiple times, and usually a minute or two is spent decorating my test booklet with doodles... It seems like everyone is done with time to spare, too, at least at my test centers.</p>

<p>stop hatin because he gives himself an acceptable advantage. Life is full of cheating. The SAT is a test to show capabilities. Some people are better at cheating, and there score will demonstrate an aptitude for something. Plus the advantage he got is so minute...</p>

<p>The world's not all sunshine and rainbows. People cheat. Not only do they cheat, but a lot of the time it helps them.</p>

<p>Yep. Let them cheat, it will catch up to them later in life.</p>

<p>if u think flipping through sections is bad, wait till u hear this. I know a kid who had a microcam and earbud attached....he had long hair....and had his brilliant sister who scored a 2400 on her first try doing all the problems. He ended up with a 2380, superscore of 2400.</p>

<p>In my school people put in dictionaries in their calculators so they can guarantee a 100% on vocab.
One person ended up getting 2400 on the october 4th test, i wonder why.</p>

<p>Why is everyone trying to burn the OP for suggesting that cheating is <em>gasp!!</em> bad? Most people here are trying to justify cheating, which, by the way, is illegal...</p>

<p>cheating is not illegal. officially CB can do no more than cancel the cheater's scores.</p>

<p>Breaking the terms of service and making the test even worse for every one else then, if that fits better. :P</p>

<p>someone's phone rang... someone was streaking... someone left early etc etc. lol lol jk but really things do happen but proctors dnt care</p>

<p>i totally agree with linz, even if it makes me unpopular. the only thing wrong w/ reporting a cheater is that i heard CB will trip about the other testtakers too and may affect their scores.</p>

<p>Chill out. Live and let be. Focus on yourself.</p>

<p>i would never even glance up from my test desk if i was taking the sat...</p>

<p>I guess the cheater(plus the advocates here, potentially) will continue performing his/her mendacity in college and beyond... And at some point s/he'll compensate for all the Karma s/he has compiled...</p>

<p>choklit rain: i think actually u can get in legal trouble... im not sure.</p>
