Everybody wants to get ahead in life. While some take the road of hard work and determination, many others want to get all the success in their lives through very minimal work or shortcuts.

Let's just take the example of passing an examination. Sure, one can't pass or achieve the role they want without studying for these but some go through great lengths to pass these exams without really working hard for them.

And no, we're not talking about some school level minute exams. People are so gutsy that they find different ways and tricks to pass a life-altering national exam as well.

So, here are a few instances when students were not only cheating but were also caught for it :

1. Students Wore Slippers That Had A Bluetooth Device In It

Five people were arrested in Rajasthan for allegedly selling Bluetooth device-fitted 'chappals' worth Rs 6 lakh to candidates appearing in the teachers' recruitment exam, REET (Rajasthan Eligibility Examination for Teachers). The candidate had a device inside his ear and someone from outside the exam hall was helping him cheat.


2. Mics Hidden In N95 Masks To Cheat

Medical and veterinary college students were caught in Sikar, Rajasthan after they were found cheating at a NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Tests). Sikar police seized N95 masks stitched with mics connected with wireless earpieces from an 11-member gang. According to TOI, the small device fitted into the mask has a nano sim and a battery and worked as a receptor. The device can attend an incoming call with the press of a button.

3. A Gang Was Caught Cheating By Using Body Language

A four-member gang had put its men in charge as supervisors, lab assistants etc at an Air Force exam in Chandigarh. The person stationed at the centre would use body language to give the right answers to the examinee for objective type questions. An official told TOI, "if the person put a hand in one pocket, the option was A, if both hands were in the front pockets, it meant option B, if one hand was in the back pocket, it meant option C and if both hands were under the underarms, it meant option D. The stand at ease posture meant turn to the next question."

4. A Woman And Her Brother-In-Law Were Caught Cheating With A Mic Which Was Hidden In A Locket

The girl candidate was found writing answers that were being communicated to her through a high-tech gadget, by her brother-in-law sitting outside the exam centre in UP's, Rae Bareli. Apparently, the girl had a locket made of wood, in which a microphone was hidden, while audio ear pins were attached to the face mask cord.

SIM cards were inserted into these devices and they had an earphone through which they heard the answers as told by someone from the other side. These devices were wrapped in carbon paper, due to which, they weren¡¯t detected during the security check while entering the centre,¡± an officer told Indian Express.
