Today, I had my end of year physics exam. I wasn't sure about some stuff, so I hid my notes and textbook in the bathroom. Halfway through, I got up, went to the bathroom, and as soon as I picked up the book, forgot what I was looking for. I can't even cheat right. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was taking an exam and I knew I was unprepared, so I wrote some cheat notes on my ankle. As I cross my legs to look at my notes, I realize I wore tall boots to class. I can't even cheat properly. FML
Today, I had a very hard and long exam and I was completely prepared for it. I was so confident in my abilities and I'd studied really hard. When I entered the exam hall and took the paper, I realized that I had forgotten to bring my calculator. FML
Today, I cheated on my math exam. I still failed. FML
Today, I accidentally left my textbook at home. Normally this wouldn't be an issue, but today was my class final. Since it was an open-book final, I'd decided not to study for it. I'm pretty sure I failed. 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 worried about passing an exam, so I hid a note under my skirt. When the guy next to me was finished, I had to get up so he could leave. With no time to hide the note, I stood in front of the entire class, hand over my crotch, looking as if I had to pee. FML
Today, I was taking a test and thought I was doing great until I realized I was writing all my answers on the question paper, not the answer sheet. By the time I noticed, there were only five minutes left. FML
Today, I got my results on a recent, important midterm. During the exam, I'd noticed my instructor had accidentally left an answers page in the test packet, so being honest, I didn't look at them. It turns out she did it on purpose to help us pass. I failed. FML
Today, as I was leaving for my chemistry exam, I stepped on one of the countless sheets of chemistry notes that littered the floor following last night's studying. I managed to slip and knock myself out in my own living room. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Wow. Your life sucks AND you deserve it. If you're too stupid to cheat, perhaps you should have tried studying...

Wow what teacher allows bathroom breaks during an exam? In high school and college if you had to leave the room, you handed your test in and that was it.
ManInTheMachine 20
Exactly. I don't even remember being able to do this in middle school. OP must have a pretty lenient school. Or teacher.

I take college French and I'm a high school student. My teacher had 2 day exams, and you could go back and fix or fill in what you left blank. It's called a hand and ink. I don't think its cheating, because you learn the information anyhow, just a little later.

Well every teacher has a different style. Some do take home exams, some do open book tests. But if the teacher creates a rule that you must study and the test is closed book then having a book in the bathroom clearly violates this.

11- Every time I see your username, I think it says "Harry Potter." Sorry, I've wanted to say this for quite a few FML's now xD

We hand in our tests but we can go to the bathroom without an escort

In my college we just get up and go at anytime. It's like "they never mentioned we couldn't, so we can" type of menally, but the door opening and closing gets distracting and annoying!

All of my college professors allow bathroom breaks. You just flip over your test and go. We call it academic integrity here. I'm sure that doesn't stop many people though.

32, lol I am a Harry Potter thing. the idea for my screen name came from a bad text-to-speech Harry Potter autocorrect actually.

Study groups should help if the class is do difficult. It is not fair to the others that stayed up all night studying for the test.

Thank you! It's always a bummer when you study very hard for an exam and someone who cheated on it and didn't study at all got the same grade as you...what's even worse is when they're proud of the grade, as of they actually did something worth while...

no one likes a cheater.

Ehh... Not true. If someone bet money on someone to win and they cheated and won, they would like them still.

When you get to university/college almost everyone cheats by collaborating on individual take home assignments. If you don't take the opportunity to cheat then, you're either stupid or hate having a guilty conscience.

Is that cheating? Or working smart.

68- That's not true. Some people don't take advantage of that opportunity. Some of us actually do our own work and when others ask for the answers, we simply say no. I work hard for what I want. I feel like others should too.

68- No, you're stupid if you DO cheat because obviously you can't learn the material.

You deserve a good pimp slapping

"What did the five fingers say to the face?" "What?" "SLAP!"

YDI. Cheaters never prosper. Fingers crossed when you retake the test you will do it honestly and pass off your own merit.
bmwguy01 8
what do you mean retake the test?
LizzJizz 16
Oh terrible, just terrible, you deserve to fail.

Ahh I used to put notes in my shoes, and then go to the bathroom.

Steroids or Photoshop. Whichever you used, your torso looks like it's duck-facing.

You shouldn't cheat but if you felt like you just had to then you should have wrote on your hand.
THE_A_TEEN 28
You're telling her that basically 'cheating is wrong' but tjene you tell her how to cheat? I smell hypocrite.
bmkc4 1
How am I a hypocrite? It's not my decision what other people do. I just said write it on your hand next time. Sorry if that offends you.
RedPillSucks 33
Perhaps you should write a book entitled "If I did cheat, this is how I would do it" You could be as famous as O.J. ...Wait...Oh well.
THE_A_TEEN 28
How the hell did I missed this for 4 hours? *then, not tjene. Damn auto-correct.
SqueakyChipmunk 22
I don't know why, but 'I smell hypocrite' reminded me of a line from House Party: "What's that? *Sniff* Smells like a bunch of *******!" "Well, I guess we would smell like *******...to a buncha dicks!"

An exam is supposed to test your knowledge, not the textbook's. YDI completely, cheater.

OP may have deserved it, but like 15 said, when you are in school tests dont really matter for anyone except for the teachers. All that should matter for students is that they should know the stuff for (probably not) in the future.
Senseless_487 29
Test do matter, actually. I had a teacher who would change your grade in her class if your score on your final was higher than your grade in the class. I did kind of take advantage of it, though. I would carry a D all through the semester, then study my ass off and get an A on the final. But yeah, depending on the teacher and/or the school, tests are extremely important!
