Test & Assignment Copying
This one is probably the most basic form of cheating during an exam. Particularly useful on multiple choice tests (since its pretty difficult to cheat via copying another person's paper on essay exams), you need to make sure you have the same form before you attempt to peek over at a neighbors papers. Oh yea, and make sure the person you are looking to cheat off of is smarter then you! Often, this method works best if you sit near the rear of the class, and make arrangements with your "cheating partner" before the class so you both know what's going on.
For assignments, its pretty damn simple. Of course, you do want to change some stuff around so your paper, and your friends' are not identical. That's pretty much it though. Hey, 2 heads are better than 1 right? :)
Advantages:
- Easy to use
- Applicable in multiple situations
Disadvantages:
- Other person may be stupid
- Repeated peeking may give you away
- Different forms of test can thwart your efforts
- Difficult to use on essay exam's
