Stop Cheating Yourself

     I totally agree that people are rushing to copy their friend’s assignment as they walk into class. To me it’s annoying. I get my homework done, regardless of how busy I am. I don’t think it’s fair that some get the answers but don’t do the work. I am a very good student who gets good grades, but I don’t just get them, I really work for my grades. I don’t think a lot of people understand that.

Cheating eventually becomes a habit and can have serious consequences. People say they won’t do it when they get into college, but I’m sure most who copy now will continue later. I hope eventually people will learn what’s really important: a good grade on one paper, or you ruining your education, record, and maybe even your life?
