Today, I was a TA for a history class and the class was taking a test. About halfway through, I noticed one kid had a small piece of paper in his hand. I ran up the row, grabbed his test, and ripped it into four pieces. Then I took the note from him. It said "I believe in you, -Mom." FML

Today, I was taking the final exam for one of my classes. The teacher came over to my desk, grabbed my test and ripped it in half. Then he grabbed my hand and read the note I had written on it to remind myself to pay rent. FML
Today, I found out why my history grade is so low: the kid in front of me takes my homework, writes his name on it, and passes it off as his own. FML
Today, I attempted to cheat on a test by writing some notes on my hand. During the test I had a question. I raised my hand. FML
Today, I cheated on a math test by writing a couple of equations on my hand. Totally satisfied, I handed my test in, feeling like I had aced it. As I was heading toward the door, I happily waved goodbye to my teacher. She saw everything. FML
Today, I was passing notes in class with my crush. I started to pour my heart out and tell him about how I've liked him for years. I was caught by the teacher. He looked at it, laughed, and tore it up. He then looked at me and said, "I just saved you from years of embarrassment. You're welcome." FML
Today, we had a surprise test at school. I was totally unprepared for any of it, so I BSd the whole thing and turned it in. A few minutes later, our teacher said we were allowed to use our notes to finish the test. FML
Today, I was in my psychology class taking the hardest test ever. After I spent most of the period trying to fill in the few answers that I knew, I looked up to see everyone with their notebooks on their desks. It was an open-note test. FML
Today, I passed my math test with flying colors. My dad thought I had cheated, so he emailed the school and told them that I had. They lowered my grade. FML
Today, I went into my classroom to find a bag of shit on my desk with a note saying, "Thanks for failing me b*tch!" FML
Today, I collected my students' notes in class to check them. One girl, who is always drawing weird anime crap in her sketchbook, turned in just one piece of paper that read, "FUCK YOUR CLASS." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thank you, your FML was submitted, and will appear the moderation soon!

#8: I'm a TA too, but if it's a test or anything, you should ask questions first. It's true that a paper in a kid's hand may look sketchy 99.99% of the time, but it only takes that 0.01% to screw up your entire career. Besides, a question only takes like 5 seconds to ask and respond (that is, if the piece of paper is not a cheating tool). The worst case scenario: it isn't a cheat sheet and you get embarrassed for 5 seconds then kids forget about it at recess. I was in a pretty disrespectful class and all you have to do is just tap them on the shoulder and tell them to put it away. After several times, they get the idea. Of course, you always have to talk with them after class or whatever, but hey, you're a TA, this should be expected. #369: Thanks for stereotyping and overgeneralizing. If these words are too big for you, read this: THANKS FOR LABELLING. I could just as easily say people named Kerry are dumbasses. But anyway, relating back to the FMLer. Poor kid. He's probably scarred for life. :/

Hahaha the student should have known better than to have a piece of unknown paper out during a test. It's his fault. He should have looked at it before he began the exam if he wanted assurance. You were just doing your job.

you should have checked what was written on it first, but the kid shouldn't have had that paper during the test

Honestly, The level of education (ex. College or High School) is never stated in the story. Also, Honestly! When have you ever seen or heard of a high school or college student that carries around notes from his mom, unless maybe the student has a learning disability. To be honest, the way the story is stated, I believe that this kid was in elementary school or in Jr. High School. There are TA's in elementary and Jr. High. I know the TA's are most likely student teachers but depending on where you are located in the USA, they may be called TA's. And, it is also not hard to grab the piece of paper from the kid and look at it to see what it says unless you're a caveman. In which case, you are only smart enough to sign up for GEICO. Cavemen are not allowed to be TA's!

i'm a student in the college of engineering, and no engineering exams are proctored. it's supposed to be a sign of engineering work ethics, but in reality all engineering work is done in teams. in all fairness, exams should be real world scenarios. open source for all exams, that means open book, open notes, open internet. if i'm not sure of an answer in the real world, i'm going to google it.
