yesterday i went to put my booklet on the ground so i have writing room on my desk (i hate being cramped) and the lady told me 2 keep it on my desk. Is this a rule because in maths esp its gonna be so cramped having calculators and 8 bklets on the desk. can i tell her that im actually allowed to put them on the ground?

I had my papers, glasses' cases and water bottle on the ground and they didn't say anything to me.

The examiners actually told me to put all unnecessay stuff on the ground cos we might need the desk space.

how the hell do you cheat that way.....???

Apparently we're not allowed to put booklets on the ground because that's one of the easiest ways to cheat according to one of my school teachers.

i put my booklets on the floor as i finished each section, in fact lots of people did, and nothing was said.

Our supervisors didn't say anything about us putting the booklets on the floor. I don't see how we could cheat.

you can, because they say, as you bend down, you can look at others paper, communicate with others quickly etc. before, it used to be like if you dropped something, you would have to ask a supervisor to pick up what you dropped coz you weren't allowed to and they'd confiscate your paper, now they do't pay that much attention to it...they shouldn't care that much now.

Can you see through the paper covers?

I'm fair sure it'd be pretty easy to put your booklet on the ground, then reach down to pick it up and quickly push it over to someone else, who does the same. Quick look through each others and then switch back...

I always put my booklets on the ground if I run out of space. Hate being cramped. Worst feeling. Always stresses me a bit, cos I lose booklets, m/c paper, question booklets.

Mine are always on either side of my chair .. im thinking that maybe those exams with multiple choice will be a worry, and yeah, that slide and switch is also viable

stupid rules.

someone in my grade used to sit on their papers to get them out of the way

can't get into trouble for that, can you???
