Well, it’s the most common issues in students' lives. Don’t ya agree? So, currently I worked together with my friend, Jane, to find out more about cheating. First of all, I suggest that you should remember to breathe while you read this. So, here’s the things we had surveyed from the students of junior and senior high school:
1. Have you ever cheated?
100% students have ever cheated (including me and you!). Isn’t that surprising? Even the ingusan kids that looked like nerds have ever cheated. However, from these 121 respondents, 28 of them confessed that they didn’t cheat anymore now. They had gone to the right path by stopping this activity.
2. When did you cheat for the first time?
It showed that most of the cheaters started cheating when they were in junior high school.
3. In 10 exams, how many times will you cheat?
- 52,73% of cheaters confessed that they would cheat more than five times in 10 exams!
4. How do you cheat?
5. Have you ever busted by teacher?
- 63,72 % cheaters were lucky enough that they had never got caught by teachers!
6. Why do you cheat?
7. Well, in cheating of course there will be a time when we’re receiving the answers or giving the answers. So, what stage are you usually in, the state of giving or receiving?
8. In what subjects do you cheat the most?
Surprised? Not really. History was concluded in IPS, so for the senior students in my school would know why IPS got the highest score :p
Behind the scene :
Doing survey wasn’t as easy as it seems. First, you should make up the questions. Second, you should copy it. Don’t you know how much it costs? Then, the hardest thing ever was to hand out these questioners to students. Well, not all of them were keen to fill in. As you know, we copied 180 papers for 180 students but it turned out that only 138 papers returned. Some of them even threw it in garbage, don’t you know how much it hurts? :’(
Thanks to 138 students that participated in this survey, but it hasn’t over yet. From 138 papers, only 121 students filled in well, some of them wrote the answers illogically -.-
So, this is the process :)
Why we surveyed only junior and senior high school students?

Now you know why.
Because primary students can't cheat. They even built a barrier using a book.
This is what happened back in my childhood :p
