The internet is not impressed with this ‘expert-level cheating’ hack

This clip has gathered over 3.9 million views and almost half a million likes. However, not everyone was impressed with this trick.

Mocking the cheating technique a Twitter user wrote, “Yeah fiddling with your fingers in there without ever taking anything out isn’t suspicious at all xD Any teacher would check it closely for notes hidden among the pens and instantly notice it’s a phone.”

Graduated with a 3.8 gpa and I cheated all 4 years all the time. You gotta be smart to cheat. It’s almost as hard work as just putting in the work to not cheat.

In my day when taking a test, we had to clear our desks of everything except the test paper & the pencil we were using. Is that no longer the practice?

When I did my GCSEs and even the mocks for them before that, you were only allowed see-through pencil cases and bottles and I’m assuming that was the case for all schools in the UK and has been for a while. If this is in America I dunno how they just… haven’t thought of this 😅

Would never happen these days, as students must usually have a clear pencil case or stationery loose on their desk for this very reason! Source: I am an ex exam invigilator

Many people also noted they were not allowed to keep covered pencil cases on their desks during exams or their stationery items were thoroughly checked.

Echoing this view, a Twitter user wrote, “When I did my GCSEs and even the mocks for them before that, you were only allowed see-through pencil cases and bottles and I’m assuming that was the case for all schools in the UK and has been for a while.
