So ... honestly now ... do you ever cheat in any of your exams ? I did it a couple of time when I was in elementary school, but I always feel sooooooooooooooooooooooo bad afterward. I never did it again, even if it means I will fail my class. How about you ?

Yes honestly I am very honest in exam. I never cheated in exam, and I hate exam cheater. I believe that cheating is not only a habit and not a reason of saving oneself from failing a class. But I believe that cheating is a way of life. People who can cheat in exam can cheat in anything else in life. Those who's being permissive of cheating usually being permissive of the other cheating in life.
I see it as a pattern and it is empirically proven, so far.
Cheating is stealing and a means of dishonesty. Dishonesty would affects many things in people's life. They would tend to be liars, love cheater, corrupts... I don't know things that related to dishonesty.

That what my parents taught me. One dishonesty would lead to another dishonesty. Especially when they are successful of caught but didn't get punishment. They would think that it was a small thing, easy to do, a beneficial shortcut and that it is nothing to worry about, because no matter how you would be forgiven.
I like the system in my sister's school. She studied in a homogeneous school. In this school, whoever caught cheating, plagiarizing or another dishonesty would be dropped out from the school. No exception. I think it was really a good education not only to maintain the quality of the students but also taught them the determination of working with honesty

Exactly. I agree 125% with you. Some people think cheating in school is a small thing, but it's not. It just ruins you and it is difficult to get out of the "cheating" cycle as you say it. I'm not saying that it's impossible, but once somebody got used to cheating, they would be more and more and more easy and breaking rules everywhere. They don't have the sense of self-discipline.
Well, I'm very glad I started this discussion, really :-)

It's good that you're honest about this fact. I think it says a lot about you, especially since you say that you felt bad afterwards. And I mean this in the best possible way.
Though I have to admit that I never cheated on a test. I never was the type of student to ever cheat on a test.

hahaha! Sounds a funny discussion but yes, i do cheat but not in my exams but my quizzes only. In our highschool exams, we can't cheat because they are very strict and that they let us cheat one seat apart. But I accepted that I cheated in most of my quizzes, especially in highschool and in college. The subjects that I used to cheat to is math and Science because i'm not really good at it. I think most of us here really cheated in college(hehehe) peace:)!

In high school my friends and I would occasionally "collaborate" on homework, but tests were always straightforward, and it stopped after high school.
