Did you know... (1 Viewer)

...that every year, to avoid cheating, the HSC people change the dye of the ink in the booklets so that they'll know for sure if someone brought in a pre-prepared answer? My teacher told me this, and he should know... he was one part of the Board of Studies.

Psychos.

wow now that is a OTT way of stopping cheating, if its true

 

[shortygb]

oh is that why they dont let them out of the room...i wonder how they can tell, it all looks the same to me.

 

[darkroomgirl]

I'll laugh if they do it CSI-style... test the chemical makeup of all the booklets to make sure no-one's cheating.

like what do u mean, a pre prepared answer in their heads and just writing all the memorised stuff or bringing in another book and just swapping them

 

[darkroomgirl]

Bringing in another book and swapping them..

If they had memorised essays, they could just write those down in the provided booklets... no cheating in that.

well they could take one out of the the hsc room by sitting under it so the supervisors wont see it when they collect the books and bring it back in with the prepared essay

Hey, that's smart! Never thought about that... maybe they won't let you...

 

[arooshika...]

im never gonna do that though, dont have enough guts to

 

[oldbearmanly]

thats interesting...thanks for that

what do you think the average going price for a booklet would be? because if u could just swap em it could make life so much easyer, but they would be really rare to find... so iam gonna say around $30

cause in our trial we used em to make it seem more real, and i could prolly sell em off or something
