<p>^^Yes, especially since one cannot know who is reading, and how easily IP addresses are traced back to persons and physical addresses...</p>
<p>No one that I know of cheats - everyone I know understands how easily the dots are connected, and ALL of us have too much to lose...</p>
<p>But more than that, the system actually works pretty well, if people take the time to do their homework and research early, and do the appropriate pre-planning...</p>
<p>I don't know anyone who cheats either. I don't doubt they are out there, but that is not the way the world works for many people. You can pick the side of the tracks you want to walk.</p>

<p>Am I the only one who's getting cranky about people "not doing their homework" and now, at the 11th hour, they're asking questions they should have asked long ago?</p>
<p>I've been reading up on this stuff for the past 2 years! Even DH, bless his heart; with a diagnosed Adult ADHD and horrible reading comprehension problems, read 2 books on College Admissions and one very long Financial Aid book. It took him over 6 months to read the 3 books, but he did it so he'd know what the heck was going on when the time came and so he didn't have to leave everything up to me!</p>
<p>Maybe I'm just menopausal... :rolleyes:</p>
