That story sounds far fetched as hell, the effort to deceive like that is 10000x greater than learning how to read :shock;
 
Graduating from college without knowing how to read would be basically impossible. You wouldn't be able to read test questions. That alone would result in you failing every class.

I could see how he would pass high school, as sad as that is. He may have been cheating and handing on other peoples' homework in college, but how does one pass the upper division courses where the final is 60% of your grade? You can't pass a final that you can't read. He claims he passed the blue book out the window and his friend would write down the answers, but who seriously believes that that would work?

And if humans were logical, rational animals, he would never have gone to all that trouble.

I can buy it. Sometimes the lazy student ends up working the hardest in the class...it takes a crapload of effort to procrastinate everything until the last night, and STILL turn things in.
 
I saw this on the news and they quoted him saying he cheated his way through high school and college... What a great message for kids
 
the job applications he had to fill out and go through, or any students who wanted his personal input on their essays and papers, would require some reading... or he had someone cover for him every single time for all that time which is extremely unlikely
 
I know of a chick that made it through 12th grade and didn't know what a paragraph was even. Private schools for the win in her case, parents just pay and the kids pass. I don't know how they bribed off the accredation people.
 
If he tried to learn how to read instead of doing all the other crap he claims, he might have actually learned how to read before he turned grey-headed.

I think it is BS anyways.
