Well, if my memory serves me correctly, it was in my seventh grade. At the time, I was trying to cheat on an exam. Why do I do this? Because at the time, I was a student who doesn’t cheat. while all of my classmates are writing answers or cheating from the smartphone on exam. So I wanted to try it, but as a result, my teacher, my chemistry teacher called me cheating because chemistry is one of the most difficult subject for me. After she called me, I was so embarrassed and I was very shy to cheat anyway. My all of my classmates at the time were chilling and she didn’t call them. I did not realize that she caught me, so as a result she showed my notebook. One of the things that I learned that it will be very good when you study at your house and concentrate better to have more details while you’re cheating, it’s the most difficult thing.

Well, if my memory serves me correctly, it was in seventh grade. At the time, I was trying to cheat on an exam. Why did I do this? Because I was a student who didn't cheat, while all of my classmates were writing answers or cheating from their smartphones during the exam. I wanted to try it, but as a result, my teacher, my chemistry teacher, caught me cheating because chemistry is one of the most difficult subjects for me. After she caught me, I was so embarrassed and very shy about cheating anyway. All of my classmates at the time were relaxed, and she didn't call them out. I didn't realize that she had caught me, so as a result, she showed my notebook. One of the things I learned is that it is much better to study at home and concentrate to have more details. Cheating is the most difficult thing.
