On one occasion when I neglected to do a presentation assignment, I brought a project from a previous class so I didn't look like a dillhole to the other students in the class - but after the class I went up to the prof and told him that was what I did.

Nope, never anything that could possibly get me in trouble.
How is that cheating? And this is all from memory and not looking at your notes and writing some on the desk?
You could just write what you know on scrap paper or on the exam I'd think...
Regardless I haven't done this.

I have never cheated in college because I need to know the information, and honestly it's just easier to do the work myself. I cheated all the time in high school though, and was quite good at it. Would always ace tests, sometimes because I have a good memory and others because I wrote the answers on my hand.

Hmm. I guess it's not. I always felt like I was getting away with something... 🙁
I got a D- in cheating... 🙁 😛

Ditto. Never cheated on a test or a quiz, but the some of the hw assignments that the teachers give were just begging for me to "swap answers" with my friends.

No, a bit of "collaboration" on hw/projects though 🙂
What a fvxcking bunch of liars.
Yeah, I've cheated in college and I almost got caught.
I've cheated from time to time when I partied too much.
I used to write notes on a tiny piece of paper and stuck it between my legs.
Especially in a big class and sitting in the back row, its impossible to get caught.
I tried to do it in a small class once and this prof. was starring at me for a even walked by me a few time.
I had my legs closed so she couldn't see anything.
She kept her eyes on me for so long and the class was almost over...I thought I was getting caught for sure.
So some reason, she walked out the door for a few secs and I crumbled those notes away.
I was sweating for the longest time.
Needless to say, I learned my lesson there.
People just don't want to admit they cheated at one time or another in college.

i never really cheated...i did once in like the third grade, got caught, and the teacher started calling me stupid, asking how i got into advanced math (they had three levels back then, one class for smart folks, one for average, one for stupid)...to this day i hate that bitch.

nope. i'm the king of cool. i'm just really really wasting a fvkload of time. 😉
College is one of the easiest most useless things you'll do in your short life. Don't take it too seriously, and don't get down on people who really don't care about it.
I cheated a little bit in high school, but never in college.
not really at least. there was one time when I took advantage of a professor's addled mind and closeness to retirement.
junior year, Sociology 430 - Research Methods. we had to do a group term paper worth 30% of our grade. due to some complications, my group dropped me from the project. by the time I discovered this, it was only a week away from the deadline, and way too late to try to get into another group. I decided to just fvck it. I had an A in the class already, so missing that 30% would drop me to a C -- still high enough to pass, even for a class in my major. with no intervention on my part, the professor decided that my group must have just forgotten to include my name on the paper, and gave me their grade. I didn't correct him 😉
