Dear Nigerian Students, Is This Attitude Of Mine Really Normal?. by Nobody: 4:40pm On Nov 12, 2021
Good day everyone,

Wrote a tough exam today my attitude in the exam and in others I've written in the past got me thinking if this attitude of mine is really worth it. I find peace in it but other students simply find it annoying which I don't like. They also refuse to see things the way I see it.

Well it is about EXAMINATION MALPRACTICE and its various forms. I 'm too scared to even try indulge in any. Even to ask questions in the exam Hall. I deeply fear the punishment that follows suit if caught. Many students see it as normal and indulge in such but I don't. Even at times when I have a blank-out (i.e forget everything I have read), I just simply write the ones I can remember and submit. Then I pray to God not to fail. Yes, I v failed, in fact two courses but I rewrote them and passed all. It still didn't pressure me into indulging in any form of cheating.

I can tell you if you ask me in the exam Hall (if the examiner is not watching) but to ask you would be a problem. More reason why I don't rely on anybody, I just read, write the few ones I can and submit. I could remember vividly when a girl was asking me some questions a year ago in the exam Hall, i simply told her that I didn't know it. Actually, I didn't. One of the invigilators caught us and sent us out. I nearly cried if not that I had written few things down. The girl was just begging me to forgive her. I forgave her but the trauma still persisted. I dreaded to see the exam results but thank God I escaped with a C.

Today's own got me thinking if this my attitude was even worth it. We are writing our promotional exams and you just have to try your best not to fail a course else it would result to a spill-over. I wrote the few ones I could remember. A girl in front had answered almost all questions and was still asking me to tell her the one she didn't know. I snubbed her at first because I was actually at the front seat where invigilation was strict.

This girl kept disturbing. I was surprised that even with the few things I wrote, she wanted to copy my little work when she had written lots of stuffs down. She was even getting answers from others. I would have liked to ask others like she did, but I 'm just too scared to even try. I wouldn't want an invigilator to surcharge me or send me out. Worse still, my paper could be torn by a yeye lecturer.

At the end, I prayed to God that he should help me with the little ones I could remember to write down and I shouldn't fail. I submitted without listening to the girl. But I feel bad, I couldn't tell her or any other person due to this fear. And I can't even ask even if I wanted to. But others can't understand me not even my friends.

God help me. But Is this attitude of mine really abnormal?.

An exam hall is not a place of interaction or donating ideas to one another... If anyone finds it irritating you snub them in the exam hall, just shake your head and walk away, afterall, you nor escort anybody come University.



Do whatever makes your mind be at rest and work on your confidence level.

Lol, I don't cheat in my relationships pls. If I lose interest, I 'd prefer we break up and I date the one I 'm interested in. Double-dating has never been my thing, I 'd rather prefer the relationship would be an open one rather than do that.....

Exam malpractice is a fraudulent activity. Stay away from it.

My dear, do not feel inferior because others are doing things you cannot. Its not even a good act even though you are trying to help others. Malpractice form is real, suspension is real, expulsion is real. Just keep doing what you know and leave the rest to God. It actually helps your self sufficiency and gingers you to work harder. God bless you.

You take decision based on fear of being caught not based on moral courage.

You need deliverance from spirit of fear

Pls don't mind him dear,you don't owe him any explanation.
That guy rants like a slow person on most threads.
And as to what you typed,it's perfectly normal.
I'm also like that,tho mine is not as deep as yours.
Most exams I write,i don't mind telling people stuff but I hardly like asking.
It's more of a thing of pride for me sha.

You are a principled lady.

You need to stand for something or else you fall for everything. I don't talk during exams and I don't care about anybody. People respect me for that.

Hope you are now serving (NYSC)?

There is nothing wrong with that as long as you didn't make anyone get suspended or expelled from the exam hall.
