So I've hit a new record for hours doing homework

<p>Not really homework but I had this biology reasearch paper to write in 3 hours at school on monday, so I wrote a good copy of it for 11 hours on saturday (13 pages) and I memorised word by word on Sunday for 5-6 hours.
And I wrote the exact same thing (nearly word by word), off my head, at school and got top of class!</p>

<p>I can't go more than 2 hours for homework.</p>

<p>wow thats the worst thing ive ever heard</p>

<p>the point of cheating is to do less work, not more work</p>

<p>CHEATER</p>

<p>I always have homework from 4-12...everyday...so get over yourselves!</p>

<p>IB Diploma = 6/7 Subjects + coursework + Extended Essay + TOK paper
IB Diploma = expect an influx of students running for the asylum every November and May!!</p>

<p>I feel so lucky. I have like at the most 30 minutes of homework a day, cause I do it all at school.</p>

<p>lolll i love my school!
i get no hw ever and im taking the hardest courses available
i have a friend in the IB program... i pray for him every night</p>

<p>doing wut NoFX did isnt really cheating. its just preparation for the test. he wrote everything him/herself. often my own teacher reccomends us to go home and prepare for an essay test. NoFX was just really studying</p>

<p>oh give me a break</p>

<p>you have an essay test in class
you go home and write the entire essay out, come to school and write it down word for word? pray tell me, what was the point of doing it in school? if that was what your teacher had in mind then why not make it a take home essay?</p>

<p>retard.</p>

<p>NoFX seems not to have a life. Copy an essay (13 pages) and memorize it word to word for so many hours? useless</p>

<p>I think it's cheating. Not cheating how we usually think about it, but it's still cheating. It's going against the guidelines set down by the teacher. I also concur he has no life to actually do such a thing. :)</p>

<p>i think someone who posts on cc an average of 22 times a day should refrain from speculating about the social activities of another</p>

<p>btw i was just teasing about the cheating thing, hard to convey through this medium</p>

<p>wow im feeling rather eloquent right now lol</p>

<p>i agree with you</p>

<p>Umm it wasn't cheating..
We had like 2 weeks of research and preperation time for the paper.
We didn't have a set question or anything. It was just about writing about my topic (which was something about biotechnology). Everyone knew what we had to do in the exam - write about how it works, why it is needed in our society, the ethics, etc..</p>

<p>Our teacher recommended that we should write an essay PLAN, memorise it and write the essay in the exam.
I, however, (being the over achiever) wrote the whole essay at home, memorised the whole essay, and wrote the exact copy in the exam.</p>

<p>I don't see how that is cheating. The whole exam style was pretty stupid because they practically told us what is expected. This is just like studying for a history exam (like, writing a paper): memorising all the facts and figures, writing a practice essay, and vaguely memorising it, and writing the near-same thing at school. :: which is what nearly everyone does in my school. Wouldn't you do that?</p>

<p>and I'm a she.</p>

<p>it's not chaeting. stop teasing her. :)</p>

<p>i feel that its no different than preparing 4 something like, a history test and going home and spending hours and hours memorizing the facts. </p>

<p>and to the person who called me a retard:</p>

<p>can we all please be like, civilized here? there's no reason to call each other nasty names. just state ur opinion.</p>
