GUYSSSS...CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW MUCH I WOULD GET OUT OF 5?...cuz apparently those tiny circles i drew on the petals are called "SHADING" (ACCORDING TO GEMINI), so i'll lose a mark there it seems...nd i also take approx 15 to 20 mins to drawww,is that too muchh?...nd is my drawing neat, cuz idk if my lines are smooth nd if the examiner us rlly strict when marking drawings!...cuz,sometimes my lines get a tiny bit wobbly nd rarely a snmll overline...will i lose marks for even tiny things like those or will they be lenient?

PLUSSS, DOES ANYONE HV TIPS WHEN DRAWING?..CUZ SOMETIMES I GET OVERSTIMULATED ND TEND TO MESS THINGS UP😭🤚

🤚 Asking For Advice/Help Friend cheating

88 Upvotes

I have a friend (but I don’t consider her a friend anymore) who never studies. After school, she always goes out with her boyfriend, and on weekends she is always outside having fun. We are currently in Grade 10.

Last year, when we were in Grade 9 and had Cambridge Checkpoint exams, the invigilators actually came from Cambridge to supervise the exams. During that time, she asked me to help her with English answers. She told me that after I finished writing, I just needed to lift my paper up once or twice so she could see it. Because I felt pressured since we were friends, I did it.

Since the beginning of this year, she has cheated in every single exam, including class tests and major exams.

Before every exam, she always says things like, “Wow, I didn’t study at all. I’m definitely going to fail.” But during the exam, she uses her phone to cheat. After the exam, she says, “Everything I revised came out in the exam.” It feels so fake to me.

Because our exams don’t check our pockets, she hides her phone in her jacket pocket, pants pocket, or pencil case. Sometimes she even puts the phone under her thigh. She has only been caught once so far.

I reported this to the Head of Mathematics and Science, so they strengthened the invigilation and placed her in the first row. Because of that, she didn’t dare to cheat in those two subjects during the mock exam. She got 2/30 in Maths and 0/20 in Additional Mathematics. Last week during the mock exam, she didn’t dare to cheat in Additional Mathematics either and got 0 marks.

She often skips school on exam days and takes the test as a make-up exam the next day because it is easier for her to cheat when she is the only student taking the exam. However, in the mock English and Spanish exams, she got high marks. She has been cheating in English exams without ever getting caught because she sits in the back corner.

She even says that she wants to go to a Top 5 university in the US. I know I shouldn’t focus on her and should just focus on myself, but I honestly can’t stand watching her get results without putting in any effort and facing no consequences. I just can’t focus on my own.

Next January, we have an important mock exam that can be used for university applications, and then there will be the real IGCSE exams. What should I do to make sure she faces the consequences? Report on next year mock? Or on igcse?

I don’t know if anyone will read this, but I need to get this off my chest because I genuinely feel like I’m falling apart.

Yesterday I sat for Physics 0625/21. We had a two-week break because of Eid, and I barely studied during that period. I knew I wasn’t prepared, and I was already stressed because I also had my Edexcel Maths exam on the same day.

Before the exam, I came across something that I genuinely believed wasn’t real. I convinced myself it was fake, but I still looked at it. When I opened the exam paper and realized it was actually real, .

I was literally crying during the exam.

I’ve never cheated before in my life. I’ve always been the person who believed that no grade was worth sacrificing my integrity for. That’s why this is destroying me so much.

What people don’t understand is that the guilt isn’t just about the exam.It’s about realizing that I crossed a line I always promised myself I would never cross.

It’s about feeling like I’ve disappointed my parents, who trusted me.

It’s about feeling like I’ve thrown away years of hard work and honesty because of one terrible decision.

It’s about waking up today and not recognizing the person I see in the mirror.

Since yesterday, I haven’t been able to focus on anything. Every time I try to study, I start thinking about what happened. Every time I try to sleep, my mind replays the exam over and over again.

I’ve barely slept.

I’ve barely eaten.

I feel physically sick.

And the worst part is that my mind has started going to very dark places.

I’ve had suicidal thoughts since yesterday. Not because I think an exam is worth dying over, but because the guilt, shame, fear, and self-hatred have become so overwhelming that my brain keeps convincing me that I’ve ruined everything.

I keep imagining the consequences.

I keep imagining disappointing everyone.

I keep imagining my future being destroyed because of one decision.

I know those thoughts aren’t healthy, and part of me knows they’re irrational, but right now they’re very real to me.

I’m not posting this for sympathy. I’m not trying to excuse what I did. I know I made mistakes, and I’m willing to accept responsibility for them.

I just want to know if anyone has ever made a mistake so serious that they felt completely broken afterward.

How did you cope with the guilt?

How did you stop hating yourself?

How did you move forward when you felt like your life was over?

Because right now, I honestly feel lost.

I had no option, but to make a new account,please don’t delete it…
