during my sophomore year i took AP Gov and my teacher told us not to use AP central to study for tests because she would get the frq tests off there, but near the end of the semester i was desperate to bump my grade up to an A and did so anyways, and she caught me. i had never done it before nor cheated on any other test, and i was honest about it, so she only failed my test. my grade level principal never called me into his office for it, so i assumed she never reported the incident.
my junior year my AP stats teacher saw me pretend to hump one of my friends so she wrote me up but i didn’t get suspended because my principal only gave me lunch detention since i had never gotten in trouble before, and that was that.
i don’t know if these are serious enough to put for this question on the common app, because some websites say that colleges don’t care about detentions and that things like this are the result of “poor judgment,” but the cheating incident might be bad enough to put as an answer in the question. what do y’all think?
I think you have some growing up to do. Frankly, I wonder if this is a serious question.
Follow the Common App instructions for what disciplinary actions to report. Not some “website.” Talk to your GC, because he or she will answer a similar question in the counselor report.
I think that all discipline problems are the result of “poor judgement” and that that excuse doesn’t get you off the hook.
I agree with @lookingforward. Speak to your guidance counselor.
