Is it normal to cheat on tests?
Before I take a test (especially in math) I write formulas and examples on the back of my calculator and peek at it during tests.

Highschool math is only useful in highschool and does not need to be actually learned, so cheat away
It might be common but not right nor normal. Think about it for a while you'll realize that the only one you're cheating is yourself.
So what if its normal or not. Is that the right thing to do? Normal doesn't = healthy, and normal doesnt = right.
when i was in the high school i used to do the same...i was ignorant in math and i was afraid to fail the test. so i've always cheated
If it's just formulas it's no big deal, like if you know how to do everything, you've done your hw and all that jazz but you just have troubles memorizing formulas it's ok. Besides, formulas should be given on testa, I hate when they're not.
Also if you have a TI-83 or some variation you can create a program under the PRGMS tab and writ in formulas and answers. That way it looks like your actually working and of the teach walks by just 2nd exit that thing. If you write it on the back you could get busted. Just saying...
Yeah man everyone cheats or has cheated before. I would cheat periodically on stuff until sophomore year of college. It was the really hard tests that I studied hard for and passed without cheating that I felt the best about! Now that I'm in the real world there are tests at the workplace all the time and no way to cheat so don't get too accustomed to it! But high school math....who cares.
I will admit that I I've cheated on a math test. But I felt bad after and never did it again. Though it is very common and not seen as a bad thing realy in high school
Uhh, if you actually did the homework, you wouldn't need to cheat.
Also, this tells people a lot about your personality.
