Today, I found out why my history grade is so low: the kid in front of me takes my homework, writes his name on it, and passes it off as his own. FML

Today, I was copying an assignment from my friend and was feeling confident that I was gonna pass. I later found out I copied his name too, so the teacher failed us both. He won't talk to me now. FML

Today, I found out why my biology class TA, who takes the class alongside the other students, was always so eager to collect my work. Turns out, she's been erasing my name on my papers and writing hers in all semester. My failing final grade has already been finalized. FML

Today, I was a TA for a history class and the class was taking a test. About halfway through, I noticed one kid had a small piece of paper in his hand. I ran up the row, grabbed his test, and ripped it into four pieces. Then I took the note from him. It said "I believe in you, -Mom." FML

Today, my teacher called a friend and me out of class and told us we had been reported for plagiarism because our answers to a problem were nearly identical, and he said that I shouldn't have shared my work. This for an assignment where significant marks were awarded for collaborating with peers. FML

Today, as I went into my calculus class, the teacher announced that someone had received a negative grade on the test we were getting back. I laughed and said, "Which f*cker managed to get a negative?" Turns out I'm the dumbass. FML

Today, my little sister decided the best way to cheat on a test is to take someone else's test, scratch through their name in pencil, and write her name underneath. She starts high school next semester. FML

Today, I asked my friend to hand in my homework for me since I have tonsillitis. She thought it would be funny to draw a big heart on it with my teacher's name inside, which she then handed in. FML

Today, I took a final for my law class. As I was taking the test, I noticed the girl on my left copying off me. I wrote all the wrong answers on my sheet while writing the correct answers on my desk hoping she would copy the wrong answers down. I forgot to write the correct answers on my test. FML

Today, I asked my professor what happened to the assignment I gave him several weeks ago. Turns out he lost it, and graded me zero as a result. Now if I want a mark, he says I'll have to hand-write it all over again, but that I "probably shouldn't bother," because it was "a bit shit, really." FML

Today, I turned in my homework. Too bad I accidentally handed in the printed answer sheet I found online to copy from. FML

Kill him. In a historically accurate sacrificial manner. Then you can demand top marks for your extra-credit project,

I just wonder how he's always able to do that...do you have to pass your homework up front through the row of desks every day or something? And if you did that one would think you'd see him take your paper then write on it before passing it up...idk this just confuses me

He can easily get expelled for that. Try to find proof it's yours though.

How in the hell has the teacher not caught on? Does the teacher not notice that the handwriting for the name is different from everything else?

Show the teacher your handwriting. They will probably have the other student recreate the work and be able to see he's been cheating the whole time.

Don't you put your name at the top anywhere? Computer paper or handwritten? YDI if your own name wasn't on it.

This happened to a girl when I was in school to avoid it happening to me I would write my name in pen instead of pencil.

You need to go to the teacher and explain what happened. Let her know you did the homework and move as high up as you need.

How dose the teacher not notice the difference in handwriting between his in class work and home work?

We have remarkably similar handwriting. I'm now trying to do everything in left-hand :)

I would actually write on the paper somewhere on the back: This was done by so and so, on date. Take a picture of the handed in work and walk it up to the teacher. Have her sign a paper that said you did it.
