(folha de) cábulas


Explanation:
Termo muito comum e que se refere a um "auxiliar de memória" para avivar os conhecimentos durante o teste/exame.

"Tentativas de fraude (incluindo conversas com os vizinhos, utilização de cábulas, utilização de telemóveis, etc.) resultam na anulação imediata da prova"

"feliz por um aluno se mostrar preocupado em compreender a questão, este já estará com a mão numa cábula, que num piscar de olhos passará para o interior da folha de exame, e que num instante quase imperceptível ao olhar, essa cábula passará a resposta no teste."
