It was our final drafting exam for civil engineering. I just copied and pasted another guys entire drawing. The lecturer didn't mind, one cos it showed iniative and 2 cos I had spent most of my class time teaching his students how to draw basic isometric drawings cos he totally skipped over the basics. Research has shown that kids who lie more are probably smarter than ones that don't. Reason being is that they understand that what they say is truth doesn't need to be truth. A concept that most ppl take along to even begin to realise. I got caught cheating once. It was our final drafting exam for civil engineering. I just copied and pasted another guys entire drawing.

Everyone around me got worse grades. By the time I was in third grade, I realized that the only way me or anyone in my class were to get good grades, I'd have to be the one to know the answers, so there was someone to cheat off.

I for one never cheated, but that's because I could make everyone else in class look stupid without putting forth any effort whatsoever. Also I never really cared enough about my grades to want to cheat. That’s that “work smart, not hard” thing.

Smart people take advantage of their opportunities, dumb people don't. It's elementary, dear Watson. Regarding “smart people cheat more frequently,” it’s because smart people have more opportunities.
