How to Cheat on a Test Using Electronics
While cheating on a test is never a good idea, if you need to, do it discreetly by keeping your phone hidden. Before the test, use your phone to take a picture of your notes, then hide your phone in a pencil case or between your thighs during the test. Whenever you need to look at your notes, pretend to stretch your neck downwards to get a quick glimpse before anyone notices. Make sure to put your phone on silent and disable vibrations so you don't get caught. For tests where you can use a calculator, either write down your notes and hide them in the case or use the text feature on your calculator to write them into a program ahead of time.
While taking a test, consult your cell phone, netbook, or other portable device. Using the Internet feature, find the answers to the questions you need. Make sure the teacher doesn't see you. Note: this method only works if your device has Internet access. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/c\/cc\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet1.jpg\/v4-460px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/c\/cc\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet1.jpg\/aid1850965-v4-728px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":322,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"510","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"} However, if you get caught using your device during a test, you will be disqualified in all of your tests. It is recommended to take little revision cards and slyly pull them out of your pocket, but make sure no-one is watching you! {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/6\/60\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet2.jpg\/v4-460px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/6\/60\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet2.jpg\/aid1850965-v4-728px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-1Bullet2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":322,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"510","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"} Hide information inside your pocket calculator. Most calculators come with a sheet of paper for functions. If possible, write any formulas or problems on this sheet of paper. Teachers won't be suspicious because they will think you're figuring out a question! {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/0\/0c\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-2Bullet1.jpg\/v4-460px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-2Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/0\/0c\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-2Bullet1.jpg\/aid1850965-v4-728px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-2Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":322,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"510","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"} For tests allowing calculators, use any sort of text-based memory calculators to record all the equations, notes, theorems, proofs, etc. Create a fake, password protected program and use the text box. No teacher will ever be able to access it. However, most exams do not allow programmable calculators and invigilators (test monitors) may check. In math tests, put your calculator in between your legs and whenever you need to use it, type in the sum and pretend you are rotating your neck so you can glance at your calculator to see the answer.  Practice beforehand so you know where all the buttons are on your calculator.  Copy all your notes onto your iPod (through iTunes for an iPod Nano of any generation; through the iPod itself for an iPod touch). Alternatively you could download a file manager application to your device and copy your notes there. On the day of the test, wear some clothing that has pockets (shorts for example) underneath your normal uniform.  Keep your iPod in the pockets of the clothing underneath your normal uniform, that way if they ask you to empty your pockets they've got nothing on you.  Before you enter school, make sure the iPod volume is silent and the clicker is turned off.  When you come across a question you are not sure about, ask the supervisor if you can go to the bathroom, if he/she denies your permission then emphasize that you're too desperate to carry on with the test.  Lock yourself in a stall and keep your feet off the floor.  When you're securely hidden in the stall take out your iPod and read from your notes. Don't take too long otherwise it becomes suspicious. Once you're done, hide the iPod again and act like you've just answered nature's call.  The benefit of this method is that they can't ask you to take off your pants so hence there is no evidence that you have cheated.  Put all needed information in a note on your cell phone. Put your cell phone on your knees, where the teacher cannot see it, and when you need an answer, look down at the note you typed. Make sure no one calls you. You can also try getting a friend who can text you the answers, but be careful with teachers. To quickly create a note in your mobile phone, open a notepad on your desktop and use copy & paste. Save the file and transfer it to your cell phone via cable or wireless. Some phones such as Nokia open notepad partially. One solution is to use various free text reader such as Young Reader. If you have 3G access, you can easily type or copy & paste your whole year of notes on a free website or a blog. Then use your phone browser to read your notes as a web page. With the built-in search, you can quickly get what you want in three seconds. Take a picture of your notes with your cell phone.  During the test, simply place the phone between your thighs, or camouflage it in your pencil case.  You can also text yourself your notes/answers before the exam, or text a friend if you need help during the exam. Remember to remove keypad tones and put your phone on silent, it's a giveaway. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/d\/da\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-20Bullet1.jpg\/v4-460px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-20Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/d\/da\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-20Bullet1.jpg\/aid1850965-v4-728px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-20Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":322,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"510","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"} With a cheap microphone, do a voice recording of any and all notes you could need for the exam. Keep every chapter, section, etc. on a different track so it can be easily accessed. Store the audio file on the music player.  Ask if you can listen to music while you work. Use the "I did all my studying listening to my music, so 'state-dependent' theory says...blah blah blah" excuse, if you must. If listening is not allowed, put an earphone up your sleeve, or wear a hood. (It is easy to conceal a small earphone without a conspicuous hood if you have long hair.) Listen to your "music" during the test.  Write whatever notes you need in a text file and put it on your media player (may require software) or create an image file of the notes and load it. Some players have a feature which allows you to write lyrics for songs - this feature can be used to store information on tests. Wear a pair of baggy shorts to school.  Make sure your desk is directly behind the person in front of you.  Put your feet up against the back legs of the seat in front of you with your knees high to conceal your lap.  Place player in your lap with your fly open. If your teacher comes near or suspects you, slide it into your pants. Note: works best for teachers of the opposite sex, particularly girls with male teachers. Record your notes with a microphone and put them on your MP3 player. If the teacher does not allow you listen to music (which many don't), wear a jacket, sweater or long sleeve shirt to the test. Get the earphones and pass them under your left sleeve so that the earpiece is by your wrist. Put the MP3 player on your lap under your sweater. Play the file and rest your head on your left hand while taking the test so that the earpiece is near your ear and you can hear the recording without being too suspicious.  Download Speakonia off of download.com and write all of your notes down in this program.It's a text to speech program, anything you write here will be converted to speech, allowing you to hear your notes as if it was spoken by a person. Some programs have a certain number of voice accents to choose from. Save the file as a .wav and put it in a MP3 player.  Set your MP3 player to repeat.  Just like method 3 try wearing a long sleeve, insert the earphone through the sleeve and out to your palm.  With the earphone in your hand, rest your palm on your ear and start writing answers.  One of the latest most popular methods of cheating in exams is with usage of a bluetooth spy earpiece and an inductive transmitter. This involves wearing a tiny micro earpiece that sits hidden inside the ear-channel. This will wirelessly connect to an inductive transmitter which is hidden on your person somewhere, usually a neckloop to be worn under the clothes or even a bluetooth pen or stylish glasses! The inductive transmitter will in turn connect to a mobile phone or MP3 player in your pocket. Like the MP3 player method above, you can record information and play it back to yourself, the difference being there is no wired earphone, if you go for the bluetooth option then the connection is completely wireless and undetectable. The other option is to make a call before you enter your exam, then communicate with someone via the earpiece and a microphone that is built into the inductive transmitter. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/7\/79\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-38Bullet1.jpg\/v4-460px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-38Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/7\/79\/Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-38Bullet1.jpg\/aid1850965-v4-728px-Cheat-on-a-Test-Using-Electronics-Step-38Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":322,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"510","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"} You could even look into pairing a Bluetooth Spy Earpiece with a micro camera so that a third party can see the exam and tell you the answers!
