I know in general, a few, not many, occasionally listen to others' speaking before starting their own speaking section, and trying to guess what topic the others are talking about, and write down those points, and then start their own speaking. That means, (unless they are very fast) they will usually end the exam a lot later than the rest. And very noticeable when they do speaking while others are already in writing section. Of course, TOEFL iBT has no way of forcing people to start Speaking right away after they come back from the 10 minute break. To avoid any unnecessary complaints and problems. However, this is not unknown by iBT staffs. Whether you consider it a cheat or a "trick" or "strategy", if you are lucky, you may get away with that. Nonetheless, all site administrators are required to report situations such as this, and other unusual activities ie. going for many breaks, etc. (nicer ones might warn you before they report you). I know, because I am such admin. As for in reality, maybe you'll get away with that, if the examiners in India or wherever feel lazy. I dunno what you mean by cheating in speaking.
