If you've cheated in school, you've probably scribbled test answers on an eraser, passed notes with a friend, glanced at your classmate's test or even made a cheat sheet. You never, however, cheated like this amazing student. He's taken cheating to an entirely different level: A 35-foot long cheat sheet with 25,000 answers.

That's right. I'll repeat it for effect: A 35-foot long cheat sheet with 25,000 answers.

Can you imagine the effort required in creating this magical cheat sheet? It probably has every answer to every question on every test about every subject ever known to man. It's so comprehensive that the school that caught him cheating should name him valedictorian and not punish him. Unfortunately, the world doesn't reward cunning evil geniuses like that.

The high school student who was cheating on an university entrance exam in Kazakhstan was caught because he was rustling and fiddling with his clothes too much before the test started. His notes (are they even just notes anymore?) included 25,000 answers that covered math, history, Russian, Kazhak and "another subject of the student's choice", according to the Austrian Times. I really want to know what that other subject was. I also want to know why the heck didn't he just study instead of making the most amazing cheat sheet ever. I also hope a university accepts him.

Except they don't let you have devices like that during a test.

Let's not forget that this is a student in Kazakhstan, provided he could afford such a device, then we assume the place he took the test had Wi-Fi, and assuming he knew the password to it.

Yeah he could've totally used a smart-phone and cloud storage, why would he even want cloud storage? I'm pretty sure a smart-phone can store a whole bunch of text.

The only proper way to cheat is with a Graphics Calculator..

For the Math courses, you etch the formulas into the inside of the case [ so when the teachers look at it, and wipe the memory they don't see them ].. For the other courses just keep your notes in them, and if asked tell teachers you are using it to figure out ages, or convert measurements, and such..

Not that I'd know mind you.

Kazakhstan has smart phones, people can also buy them from ebay/amazong/whatever. You don't need WIFI...

No, really?!

So he purchases a smartphone then buys a 3G plan. That's hard even for some people in richer countries like the States.

What a load of bull****, it's not hard at all, for anyone, it might be expensive but that doesn't stop people from purchasing expensive ****.

sure you did

Haha, what he said might be a little over the top, but I definitely remember in a chemistry class in Jr. High, someone wearing a t-shirt with the periodic table on the back, and they were sitting near the front of the room. I'm not sure if it was intentional or not, but very self-sacrificing of them if it were the case, allowing everyone else to look on while receiving no benefit from it themselves.

    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.
    • Downloads does not equal actual usage, even less when the app is pre-installed in some Galaxy phones.
    • +1000 to this, don't understand why they added that margin around the top bar, even the close button is a PITA to click without aiming. Ofc, this is just preview and hopefully they will revert such odd UX decision before hitting final version.
    • so the people who bought this will get a refund?
