Default A question of ethics

Simple... do you cheat on tests?

At this point in time I have this sudden desire to go into my Statistics class with a AK 47 and go nuts. Its a hard class and everyone in there cheated, all except for me who sat there wondering whether I should go up and tell the teacher to stop pretending like he is keeping an eye on everyone.

It frustrates me because no one forces anyone to go to college. You make the choice, knowing fully well that there will be classes harder than others. I've worked for my GPA and never cheated in a test or anything. I could have a 3.5+ GPA but I don't because I've been honest about everything I've done.

Dammit I'm pissed...

if you want to cheat then cheat.

I've never cheated and I did okay. sure my grade might have been better but I learned my stuff and learned it well.

Sadly the GPA means a lot in certain places... like getting into grad school. So I'm gonna get raped just because I didn't cheat my way through college.

I tried that once and realized my conscience wouldn't let me do that.

If you have to question whether it is ethical or not then it is not ethical to do it.

I've chaeted a few times in HS and college, its one of those things u try. If i really hated the class, and it was nothing relevant to my major and possible to cheat without getting caught, then yes i would definately cheat. I hate it when i have to take classses that will never help me in life, its really annoying.
