- It won't be easy. But, you can stop cheating when you're ready to stop -
: You're hurting others and yourself by cheating :
A system of education that emphasises rote learning and the reproduction of facts makes cheating far too appealing. It’s hardly surprising given the backwardness of our public examinations. Now that open book exams have become quite common in universities, perhaps it’s not the production of answers through questionable means that’s the problem, but perhaps the manner in which the question are set?
It’s quite lazy to blame the students, the parents, the teachers or the blame of all blames, corruption. Cheating can only be reduced if students feel that their examination performance is an accurate reflection of their abilities relative to their peers.
Cheating has reached an all-time high on college campuses, with 70 percent of students now admitting to some form of it. yet 77 percent of students don t consider it cheating or very serious.

HOW TO STOP CHEATING
- Keep your notebooks and COLLEGE supplies organized.
- Take notes during class, but write neatly so that you can read your own hand writing.
- Write your vocabulary words down on note cards. Using note cards is an excellent way to study and you'll be prepared for tests.
- Be prepared for tests, quizzes, pop quizzes, and final exams.
- Get a tutor. If you can't afford to get a tutor go online and look for free online tutors. If you're unable to do that due to not having a computer a lot of college offer free tutoring after college.
- If TV interferes with studying record your favorite shows via DVR so that you can watch them later. The TV and the Internet aren't going anywhere.
- Study in a room without distractions ie TVs and Computers. You'll be able to concentrate on your homework. Don't forget to turn your cell phone off while you're studying so that you don't get a text from your friends.
- Find out what specific subjects you are bad at. For example, don't just say "I suck at C++". Find out if you are bad at exponents, percents other sections.
- You can visit your teachers on your way to your next class or after college if you don't get something. If you wind up late for your next class ask your teacher to write you a Hall Pass or sign your Agenda so that you don't get in trouble. If you don't have time to visit your teachers after college, visit them before class begins the next morning.
- Remember the purpose of tests. It is to see how well the students know the information. If everyone in the class copied off the smartest student , the teacher would think you all learned the information, when in reality, you hadn't. So, when the teacher moves on and you are even more lost, it is your fault if you cheated.
- Try not to let others cheat off you. Yeah, there are cases when you don't want to get beaten up and you give others your homework. If that happens tell your teacher and the principal. You can ask them not to mention your name when they have a talk with said bully.
Best of luck - - - - -
