"Send the questionnaire, answers within an hour":
Tomorrow (Monday) one of the matriculation exams that most disturb the students will take place - the exam in English.
These are the winter dates of the Ministry of Education, in which tens of thousands of students will participate.
And there are those who try to make money from those who did not exactly prepare for the test - Telegram groups offer students to purchase the solutions of the tests for NIS 300 per questionnaire.
It should be said that the Ministry of Education has been trying to fight copying in recent years.
The questionnaires are kept in the safes until shortly before the start of the exam.
Therefore, as part of the service that should provide them with the answers, the students receive the answers to the questionnaires during the exam.
For students who want to copy, this is a problem, since it is forbidden to use a phone or a smart watch in matriculation.
The service of receiving answers for the purpose of cheating is provided by an anonymous profile named "Mr. Robot".
In response to the question of how you can see the solutions during the exam, he answered: "You have to sneak in. Take a tip: bring two phones (so in the original - n.d.), give one to the examiner at the beginning so he doesn't get suspicious, the other you keep under a long sock and over long loose pants." .
When the same "Mr. Robot" was asked how long it would take for the exam to arrive solved, he added: "An hour maximum, we work in a model of finishing an answer, sending, finishing an answer, and then sending again until we finish" and even added Lev.

Attempting to cheat in an English exam is not unusual.
Groups designed for solving questionnaires were also established for the exams in other subjects such as Bible, mathematics, etc. The students are supposed to transfer the money through an app to a phone number given to them, which makes it easier to track down the operators of the service - but it is not known if the Ministry of Education filed a police complaint against him.
In recent years, the Ministry of Education has reduced the scope of copying, and the entire process of transferring the questionnaires is carefully secured.
The punishment for copying ranges from a one-time delay to the prevention of examinations for an entire year in the same profession, according to the severity of the case.
