Quarantining Exams (cheating)

Yeah they do that at my school too we are not allowed to have anything out just our response sheets.

Not even allowed to write down what grade you got?

At my school on exam days we could bring nothing but our school ID in the classroom. They provided paper and pencils that we had to turn in after exam. Once complete we had test review where we went over the answers--still nothing allowed but student ID in classroom. No questions allowed, no discussion. We had an idea about what we made. We could also write down concerns that would be turned in at that time. If we wanted to review our test we had to make an appointment. This had to be done within a certain time frame.

might not be you, but there is some mighty creative cheating going on out there, and i expect your faculty wants to nip it in the bud. believe it or not, when students cheat, it makes a lot more work for faculty, time that they could have devoted to actual teaching.

Yep, that's how it is at my school. Actually, we have what is called "test review." Everybody has to put all of their stuff at the front of the classroom, then the instructors pass back our tests for us to review. There is no talking allowed and we have to turn it back in before we can leave.

I've never understood how cheating exists. Who in their right mind studies their booty off to give someone who didn't the answers? If I have to stay up all night, SO DO YOU!!!!

Ahem.

At my school all of our exams are on computer. We enter the testing room, grab a scratch sheet of paper and a pencil and set our belongings on shelves lining the computer room. We sit down, write our name on the paper, and begin the test when the instructor tells us to. After we do all 50 questions, we hit submit, then we get our grades right then and there. After that we can sit there and the computer then shows us what we missed and the rationale. We write down our grade and give it to the professor before leaving. Before our final each semester we have exam review if we want to attend and like ya'll said above, we can review one test at a time and discuss with our professor but we are not allowed to talk with each other or write anything down.

I wish we got our test scores right away. We have to wait a WHOLE week. Lucky you ?

This is how our test works.

We take the test(nothing can be on our desk but a cover sheet and our pencils)....We turn our test in and wait in the hall...The teachers grade math and alternative answers while waiting for everyone to finish...once that is done we return and we get back our test booklet(not the answer sheet) and we go over the answers(our test booklets are written in so we know what we missed, and why we missed it)...This way we know our grade before we leave so we aren't stressing all day about it. Also during test review, we are not allowed to have anything out and no cell phones!

If you don't make above an 80C, then you go to the teacher's office on a set day to review the test again and have a "counseling session" with the teacher.

There are some crazy rules out there for tests, but I can totally understand why. Im at a program that has been open less than a year, so I guess there hasnt been a lot of cheating situations. We take the test, and turn it in. Once its been graded, we'll get it back and go over it during class, but we can't keep the tests. They have to be turned back in. Although, right now I've only taken pharm, and other gen ed pre-req's, it might be different once I start fundamentals next month.

when i took my first grad school course (neurophysiology, a bear) we had a 5-question quiz every friday. we had a study group and each of us memorized one question and the choices. by the end of the semester we had a really good study guide, no cheating involved.
