Inspired by another thread (and rather than carry the discussion in there)...Have you ever cheated on anything in university specifically? Do you think it's okay to cheat?

I will admit that I've cheated on a couple things in high school, but I quickly learned it was a stupid thing to do, and would never think of doing it in university. I may have done some dumb things in high school but I definitely proved my abilities to myself and to others in university, and have been quite successful.

Personally I think cheating is shameless and stupid. You end up not only cheating yourself, but ruining things for other people. As I said in the other thread....only people with no brains and no abilities cheat b/c they have to.

What do you guys think?

House is not just a groove. House is a feeling. And when u feel it, you will understand... house music gets you up and makes you high...

Oh Christ....

Highschool... A LOT!
University never. I actually planned on cheating on a marketing exam last semester. And last minute decided I couldnt do it. I rather be able to wake up in the morning and feel good about who I am a person than cheat.

I actually disagree with this. People who cheat and dont get caught have to have some sort of intelligence. Some of the things they do in order to cheat are pretty smart.

I would never bash a person for cheating. Your grades are your business and its your life. I feel good about how I obtain my grades and that I deserve my B+ and the cheater will always have to know that he/she doesnt deserve the A

To tell you the truth I dont even know how to cheat.... unless you just talking about looking at the persons paper beside you or something

To be honest, I've proctored a number of exams and the teachers would tell me what I have to look out for...some of the stuff that people do to cheat is pretty crazy. But to think that if they spent that much time just to figure out how to cheat and get away with it....why not study?

I guess the proper thing to say would be what you did....and just that it's completely undeserving of a grade.

You clearly stated you cheated in highschool in the other thread...so you shouldn't have even graduated according to your theory...and ppl work there asses off to get into post secondary schools of their choice or into school period...so you weren't cheating anyone? give me a fucking break.

Actually I failed the class I cheated in, and had to repeat it. So yes, I got what I deserved

I didn't cheat, but I circumvented a marking scheme from a lazy professor once.

Task was we had to design a website using certain tags and specific code.

I knew how the professor ran a basic "Ctrl-F" of the source code to find if you used the right code / tags, but I didn't want to design the site like he said.

So I essentially made a hidden website in the code with all the required information and made the site how I wanted. So when he was lazy and ran his little search, all the code showed up.

Not 'quite' cheating, but not exactly honest either.

You failed when you cheated? is that possible?

Usually i had to get answers wrong on purpose to make it look legit.

And how can a cheater with no abilities and brains, actually succeed at cheating when a distinguished scholar fails at cheating?

I failed b/c I got caught. I would have passed if I didn't. B/c I failed the exam, I failed the class.

My favorite part of this thread is how you're actually trying to use what I say to make me look stupid or something. Too bad you're failin' at that....maybe you should cheat
