Cheating is never a good idea. If you get caught, you can get a failing grade, a suspension, or even an expulsion. On the long term, a cheater will hurt no one other than himself. Whether you were involved or not, you have all been in a test where someone was cheating. We must admit, some of these techniques are pretty darn ingenious.
1. The eraser
This one is a classic. You can write anything you want on an eraser (preferably a white one), and clear the ink with your finger once you are done.

6. Long sleeves shirts and hoodies
Some students were caught writing notes on their forearms, and rolling their sleeves up and down to read the notes. Another funny trick is to hide your arm under your shirt and pretend it is on the desk.

7. Labels
Whether is it on a bottle of water or on a whiteout bottle, labels are easy cheating tools. Some sophisticated cheaters will even use their computers to create labels.

8. The skirt trick
There is one advantage of wearing a skirt. If the teacher is a male, there is no way he will ask you what’s under your skin.
