Default I am not above cheating

Just wondering how other students feel towards cheating. I'm talking anything from glancing at another student's test to breaking into a professor's office to steal an exam. Feel free to discuss and/or tell stories (about your friend, of course), in addition to the poll.

the "you gotta do what you gotta do" line is infuriating. WTF. and the fact that a bunch of people voted for that option annoys me even more. WTF WTF WTF

"you gotta do what you gotta do." In other words, "I messed up and now I'm gonna cheat so that everything will work out in my favor."

I feel like that line almost has a positive connotation in people's minds when really that's [censored] terrible justification.

Nothing really wrong with cheating as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else.

Other than the people who are paying money to get educated AND get a competetive GPA for the real world. Your (and others') cheating diminishes the legitimate effort non-cheaters put in when it comes time for applications to grad school and the job market.

Other than that though, yeah I guess you're right. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I think I have a bigger problem with people that don't see what is wrong with cheating than I do the actual cheating itself. At least be self-aware enough to realize that you're a hack.

I cheat...but kind of backwards. i write papers for others, and i have no problem with it. (obvi i get paid for it). i dont feel bad about it.

I've cheated on a few things in school...but I dont rly anymore. i have gotten to the point where i suck it up and take the loss if i screw up. I havnt found myself in a situation where i wud need to cheat cuz the grade is that important yet.

and for those that think cheating doesnt hurt anyone, i hate to tell u, but ur wrong. but to each their own...same destination, different path

I confess. If I feel I have no shot of getting caught and it is largely beneficial for me, I will.

Where is the "I would cheat if I could, but I'm scared to get caught" option?
