Question about cheating

<p>what happens if i notice someone who was staring at my answers next to me?
what are the chances that he/she gets invalidated?
if he/she has nearly the same answers, is that proof?
if i do report, what happens to he/she?</p>

<p>In my opinion:</p>

<p>Usually the best option is to simply hide your answers from their view and ignore it. If they copied you answer for answer, the company has systems to detect cheating. If they didn’t copy you answer for answer, you have little evidence and the company isn’t going to make possibly both of you retake a test on hearsay. It might help to report them though. I’m not sure of company internal protocol.</p>

<p>Ugh! I hate cheaters. There was this girl who opened her essay prompt as soon as they were handed out. She didn’t wait for instructions or anything, she just broke the seal before all of them were even passed out.</p>

<p>There were many different forms, so if you’re worried that she will get a higher score, know that you probably didn’t have the same form. (Though, that’s me assuming that for different form numbers, they change around the order of answers for each form.)</p>

<p>im pretty sure we had the same form though</p>

<p>In D3NT4L’s case, if you are really against it, then raising your hand and pointing it out would be the best move. You could even politely ask the proctor to delay some before taking the cheater’s test away, that way you aren’t singled out as the person who pointed it out.</p>

<p>Keep in mind you’re potentially ruining someones chances at getting into universities. You don’t know the circumstances of their cheating. If they’re cheating due to stupidity and laziness, it will catch up with them. If they’re in a hard place and had to cheat, then you might be potentially harming someone who could do great things in their life.</p>

<p>On the other hand society needs to have a stigma against cheating lest some of our morals dissolve. Positive punishment helps to keep those stigmas in place and discourage people from cheating. If this person cheats often, this might teach them their lesson.</p>

<p>Its up to you really.</p>

<p>I the continental us all forms are the same.</p>

<p>Could the person have been looking at his/her own answer sheet and it appeared that he/she was looking at yours?</p>

<p>Don’t you think the proctor(s) would have noticed a person copying from your exam?</p>

<p>If you do not have any proof (and just because you two might have the same answers does not mean that is proof the person could have just had the same logic as you for the test), do not bother and just hope the person was glancing at their own answer sheet. </p>

<p>But if you think it is serious, report both the person and the testing center to the ACT. The proctors should have been more attentive. If you had this problem, imagine others. Report Both</p>

<p>The only thing that stopped me from reporting her was that the writing section is at the end. Her whole test would have been cancelled because she took a 5 minute advantage over everyone. I’m not justifying what she did but I would have felt bad if she had to leave the room and cancel her entire test.</p>

<p>@D3NT4L cool name btw</p>

<p>The Proctor could hear her opening the test! Wow. That really sucks</p>

<p>Did everybody get form 70D?</p>
