When we were in College, I have a neighbour who used to go study in the same school. I admit the major subjects in third year level were so tough. That's a challenge for students to gain knowledge. I can still remember the day of our second grading examinations, when admistration of the school canceled the day for taking the tests. I was in the classroom that time, then a teacher approached and asked me to go to the dean's office. I was really puzzled that time, so without hesitation I went right away to see our dean. When I got there, I was really shocked of what I've heard. They were asking me, if I knew the test papers leakage and it is like a virus spreading in the campus. I am not the culprit, but it was my neighbour. I found out that this neighbour of mine was selling the test papers to co-students. Eventually, I said no idea about the incidents. Then, when I walked out from the office. I am more feel embarassed, since all the students were in the hallway. The perception was, I was the main reason why the scheduled tests were canceled. But then, I asked the dean to explain the incidence to my fellow students, to clear out my presence in the office. Finally,the dean acknowledge the suggested proposition and he did the necessary measures to kicked out my neighbour. I feel sorry for him, but he needs to face the consequences. After that, my neighbour moved out from his apartment. I never heard anything from him since then.

actually you didn`t want to make suffer your neighbour..
but when many question and criticize for you and you must defend your self position, you have no chance beside telling the truth
it`s hard..
it`s dillema for your heart
but you had done the right thing
it`s not your fault if your neighbourhood dislike you
we can`t make all people satisfy with us

That was tough. It's a good thing you weren't really the cause of it. I bet it was so hard for you to walk back in your classroom. I could feel it. I am glad your neighbor left and haven't heard from him again.

Well, it's normal to feel uncomfortable but since you are not the guilty, definitely you should move on!

Oh, that was really embarrassing. It's good that your dean cleaned your name. That neighbor of yours deserved it. I was just wondering why did they accuse you? Did that neighbor of yours tell the students that you made those leakages? Oh my. If I were you, maybe I've boxed that student's face in front of the dean. LOL. Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.

Shame on him/her. Examinations suppose to be honor, and not be cheated. So, he should face his/her own consequence. Anyway, most students don't really care about the study thing, all they care about showing a good grade on paper. Somehow, we should know better what is beneficial to them. Going through schools by cheating just not what schooling suppose to be. We just have to prove ourselves, that we can learn, and we can apply what we just learned.

Geee that would melt me if I was on your place! :S It's good to know you were cleared from that issue. It could have threat your status in your school. Hope that neighbor of yours had learned his lesson well and is finally a better person now.

Good thing that you cleared your name on that incident. I think that it could taint your reputation as a student there and good thing that you were not involve in that leakage since he could have sold the leaked paper to you as his neighbor.
I am just curios how where you able to know that he was the culprit behind this incident?

I think cheating when your in college is awful. Its not going to help you in the career you chose at all because you wont really have learned what you needed to. I'm glad your neighbor was found to be guilty to clear other peoples bad opinion of you when you did nothing wrong.

It is probably best that you don't hear from this neighbor again. If he would cheat on the examinations who is say what else he would cheat on. He made his decision and certainly wasn't a very good friend to you. I hope you don't pine for him or wonder about him for long. Get on with your life!

Hello my friend Shavkat Ji,
Well, I would only say 'LET BY GONE, BE BY GONE' and 'WHATEVER WE SOW, SO WE REAP'. Only that, if it was known to you, you should have requested your parents to report this matter with confidence to School/college authorities. Please do not carry in your mind.
May God bless You and have a great time

Sometimes, it's really hard to accept if some people would accuse us of doing something which we know the fact that we are innocent. But it's good that you were able to clear your name regarding this matter. On the part of your neighbor, I hope he had learned his lesson.

Yes, I believe that your neighbor did a horrible thing. I do not believe you did anything wrong because it's your neighbor who decided to sell test papers. In college, cheating on tests will only mean you are cheating yourself from learning. While we do not want to fail our classes, the stress from worrying about failure should push us towards studying the material more carefully. Buying test papers to give yourself an easy good grade is not the solution. If you develop a habit from cheating when the opportunity is available, you will face difficulty in the real world when you do not know how to deal with hard situations. While there might be a chance you can get away with cheating in life, getting caught can result in severe consequences.

hi Shavkat if only people like that realized that they not only
hurt other students and the school but they really hurt themselves too. You did what you had to and that was tell the truth and get the dean to make this clear to all the students to clear your name,.
You might have been the reason but you did the right thing.'good going Shavkat.

Wow! That's pretty bold to be selling test scores, whatever happened to studying to get good grades or to challenge yourself to achieve something. I guess since he got caught he fled the scene. I wouldn't worry about it, he probably tried to blame it on you, that's what cowards do, they don't stand up for themselves. They try to blame everybody around them. Its harder to defend your honor if its never been questioned.

Your neighbor is not the first person to do that. Some people even hire another to take the test for them, someone who's already taken it. Schools need to stop giving the same test or putting it on computers.

The guys who bought the test papers from him will have to choose between hating you and hating him (or maybe they'll be happy hating both; and the examiners as well), because they gave him all this money for nothing. Serve them right anyway and I hope they learned their lesson. But if people in general know that the tests were cancelled before you were even called into the office on the information of someone other than you, your popularity should not suffer.

That is a very serious offense in school though. We do have leakage of examination questions here but normally the lecturers would not know about it or that the lecturers managed to find out but cannot trace who did that. So the examinations still have to go on. Yet, I feel how unfair it is to those who have no idea of the questions that will be coming out in exams while others who got the news would have prepared before hand and get better results in the end.

Hi friend, sad to hear about this, some times some innocent people are in need to face unwanted consequences due to bad time. I think you faced this due to your bad luck, anyway you over come from that incident and others realize about the real thing
