So I’m a freshman in college and I had a two part final. I took the first final and I think I did good on it. But the 2nd final I had test A, my friend sitting next to me had test B and I copied his answers down on my scantron. When I went to turn it it I had to turn it into the test A pile along with my test A test, but on my scantron I had out exam B. I knew the minute I put that test down I did something so bad…I regret it so much and know I have to face the consequences…but I’m so scared I’m going to get thrown out of college…I’ve never cheated in my life up until now and I’m just really worried. I’m just afraid that if that does happen I won’t be able to get a good job later in the future. What do you think will happen?
2 possibilities:
1.) u will get bad grade on final 2
2.) professor will find out and .
Hey, it’ll be ok! You messed up and did a bad thing, but at least you’ve acknowledged it was bad and you’re regretting it. You’re not an awful person
Be up front with your professor or instructor and admit what you did right away. Honesty is the best policy and if the administration knows you regret it and want to make right on your actions then they’ll probably take that into consideration when deciding what to do. You know you did something wrong and now it’s your job to make it right again.
