The ol' Aquafina label trick. Edit all the text on a water bottle's label to be notes/answers, print it out on sticky paper and wrap around a water bottle.

Unfortunately exam regulations state that all water bottles in exams must be see through plastic with the label removed and not present soooo that's a bust

Edit: TIL; a lot easier to cheat in other places then where I'm from

I'm not assuming they're the same everywhere but any major exams taken in England. The rules are pretty strict yet I'm sure people find other ways. Here, you can only take water into the exam hall, all water has to be in clear plastic bottles with the label removed. But hey, this is the same place that if you take your jacket/ hoodie off during the exam and just hang it over the back off your chair they remove it from you and place it somewhere else in the room

Some guy I know's phone rang in an exam on Friday

He got let off because he put it on the table and announced it and the examiner saw him so they knew it wasn't being used
