If you could cheat on the SAT would you?

<p>I am the most immoral juvenile delinquent I know (okay well the most immoral juvenile delinquent in the top 10% which is maybe not saying a lot) and I’d feel terrible if I cheated on the SATs. I mean, if getting that 2400 is what propels you into your top choice college and you end up doing great things … you’re always going to be like, hey, what if I hadn’t cheated? Do I have what it takes to get here all by myself?</p>

<p>So maybe it isn’t a morals thing for me, just pride. Either way, I don’t need to cheat, betches! :D</p>

<p>(I still wish it were possible though just so that everybody else could get perfect scores and drive CollegeBoard out of business and pave the path for a new generation of ENLIGHTENMENT among college applicants that involves NOT freaking out about a four-digit number. Standardized testing drives me up the wall.)</p>

<p>Uh, so you describe yourself as “immoral”… academically, I presume. And I assume that this means that you cheat on tests and assignments in school. So um, why wouldn’t you think “hey, what if I hadn’t cheated? Do I have what it takes to get here all by myself?” in that case, as well? What if your dishonestly-obtained grades “propel you into your top choice college,” which seems to me just as likely as an SAT score doing so?</p>

63

<p>… um, you presumed wrong? I’m pretty sure the last time I engaged in academic dishonesty was in second grade … when I hadn’t yet figured out that copying things off the internet was wrong. I don’t cheat on tests and assignments because - forgive me for being a tad arrogant - I don’t need to. I’m just saying that what would potentially hold me back from cheating on the SATs would be pride, not morals.</p>

<p>Okay… I guess you’re out there committing felonies, then. Sorry for misconstruing your words.</p>

<p>And yes, I understand your point about wanting to achieve things on your own merit to maintain your sense of pride. I feel the same way. Thanks for rewording something that had little to do with the part of your post to which I replied. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>Sorry for not being clear! There are many activities that could fall under the category of “immoral”, and I have no qualms with most of them … hence my wonderful self-description, hah.</p>

<p>But yeah, no. If I were given an answer sheet to the SAT’s, I would post it online and watch heads roll. Except maybe for the next admissions cycle and not this upcoming one … ._.‘’</p>

<p>“Lol at all the people flaunting their scores saying “I already have so-and-so, but…”
No one cares.”</p>

<p>I only cheat when im cluelesss. sat scores you can always retake and you never know if the person sitting next to actually knows the answers. it’s not important enough to cheat on</p>

68

<p>If you’re not going to get caught, then why wouldn’t you cheat? It’s a big factor in your college admissions. Your score won’t certainly make you but it certainly will break you if you don’t have a score up to par with the rest of the field. It’d make your application that much better.</p>
