cheat and you'll pass your exam

They peek friend's answers,bring in notes,discuss on the questions, passing papers,text using mobile phone, go out (as if they wanna get to the toilet to take a quick look on the answers from the notes left outside),or just directly ask for the answers from friends sitting next to them.

There's actually a few more other ways of cheating in exams that I've heard about before,but i'm not so sure are they really been used or just nothing more than 'possible' ways that can be tried.Most of the ways are quite creative like using some sort of hearing aid,plug into your ears and then somehow by using some small devices,you ask for the answers from someone you count on,waiting on the other room with related books and other references on his table and done.All questions are confidently been answered and of course,thanks to the technology.Technology does make student's life better.
Yup,some students do cheat when it comes in answering exam questions.Are they the one to be blamed?I'm not so sure about it but I think-NO. These students who are cheating during exams are not the one who are at fault.

People cheat when they get a chance to do so.Means,these students are given a chance to cheat actually.Perhaps, the examiners don't really pay their attentions in the exam hall..hmmm,is that true?When they are not looking at the students or too busy doing something else like having a small talk with other fellow examiners,students are actually given the chance to do the cheating thing.
The truth is, I dont feel like it to put the blame on other people.No one should be blamed.I think, it is so not fair because as human beings, we are not perfect and never gonna be.

Time-famous for being the 'factor' that contribute to something that happened.Here, time constrain is one of the reasons on why these students have to cheat during exams.Nowadays, 24 hours are not enough.We need more than that in a day.We need extra hours.Students are undergoing this one process,known as the process of living.Means, they are doing things in lives.They are living creatures.They don't just go to classes, be at the library, read thick books,do researh and do revisions.They also do something else.To cater their needs and wants, they do part time job, hang out with friends, deal with love live, doing things that matter to their families and online( playing games, chit-chatting or browse new websites).All these are for self-satisfaction, social, business or knowledge-seeking reasons.As we can see,they are doing a lot of other things in their lives and therefore,they don't really have much time to prepare themselves for the examination.No time to attend all classes and no time to do the study and full revisions.

Students are not made of electronic components.Eventhough they are young and energetic,they are just human beings.They get tired.They need time to get enough rest.Mentally and physically.When they are tired, they can't really focus on things they are doing.We have to admit that they are living in a such hectic life.Because they are so tired, they have to cheat during the exams.Is that so?Yes, because, they need to rest instead of loading their brains with things from the text books and notes as preparation for the exams.The relationship?Hectic life+Tired+ Need to rest/relax/sleep+Don't do the revision = Fail .Therefore, to change that 'fail' to 'pass', they have to do the cheating.

The fact is,if these students get caught, they still have to pay for it.They may get suspension or have to sit for that exam again in the next semester or even worse, get expelled.They already knew that and so alert about the fact.But they are so dare to take the risk.Surprisingly,most of them are so lucky as they manage to do the cheating and never get caught.They are so,so and so lucky.

No matter what, never blame these students. They are not at fault.They cheat, so that they can pass the exams.From there, they can graduate on time and get into working life.We are not blaming these students and since they are so good at cheating plus never ever get caught, they might able to do the cheating thing in something else and help our world to be a better place.Who knows, from the cheating, they might end up becoming someone.Maybe as our next Prime Minister?

As a grown up, we are supposed to know what is right and what is wrong.I don't put the blame on these students.They know that, what they do now may results into something in the future.Since they may end up being someone by cheating, then just let them do the cheating.Therefore, we just have to keep on looking for something( not someone)to put the blame on.That's it.

What about those students who are not cheating?In my opinion, they might don't wanna be someone.Maybe they don't feel tired living in their hectic lives.Maybe they don't have to do something else in their lives.Maybe 24 hours in a day is more than enough time for them.And maybe,they are being true to themselves.No matter what is going to happen,they choose to be honest.

Well, cheating or not, it's your choice.No matter what, we never gonna blame you.
