I would rather pass a test by cheating. Allow me to explain. Yes, there are moral complications, and it is definitely not the "right" thing to do. However, when you cheat to pass a test, you end up with a grade that would be significantly better than if you were to not cheat. The positives outweigh the negatives. As with most of these two-choice questions, I would rather take the middle ground. Depending on who I am near, if the teacher is closely watching you, how severely the test could affect your grade, are all factors that would contribute to my decision. Depending on the circumstances, I would rather simply take the test without cheating. Still, my answer would remain the same because circumstances more oftentimes call for that option.

My memory is not the best. I forget the simplest things like taking my key to school in the morning or bringing my cleats for soccer practice. Some times I just need a tiny reminder of what I learned to get my brain to start moving, so a lot of times I have asked the guy next to me the first step of what to do. I usually remember after one step and my mind gets moving and I can finish the rest of the test easy but without that little boost I would probably have failed half of the tests I've aced. There have also been some tests where I was thinking to myself  "when will I ever use this in real life? When will this ever apply to my life or the career or back up career I have chosen?" So I said F it and just cheated my way through those tests. No point filling my mind with useless information.

I would rather fail a test without cheating. I'm not one to cheat, it makes me feel bad about myself. Plus, where I seat there's really not anyone I can copy, most of them are... not as bright let's say.

Besides, I really don't have to cheat. I'm not saying I'm smart or anything, but I can remember most things well, so tests are kind of easy to me. Not extremely, but a bit easy.

I have never cheated almost. The only time that i really close to that was when my teacher kept the signs up around the classroom about stuff like figurative language so i was looking from my desk and saw a little of someones answers but they were the exact same as mine so I consider that not cheating. I would rather fail.

Cheat. It's a good grade. Everyone has had a case of wandering eyes before. It just happens. Cheating is sometimes the only way to pass, and you have to do what you have to do?

I would feel bad if I cheated on a test because it would make me feel as if I didn't really earn it.

I rather fail then to cheat because. Cheating won't do you good and it will haunt you for the rest of your life. Knowing that you cheated on something that you didn't even work hard for. I would do my best to see whatever score comes in for me. Even if I failed. That will tell me I did ok but, to better myself next time not to fail....

I'd rather fail. I mean, sure, I get pressured a lot to get good grades, but it feels like more of an accomplishment if I do it on my own, rather than just copy someone else. Same with homework, really. If you do it yourself, it means you really do understand it, and it tells the teacher whether you get the material or if you need extra time going over some stuff.

I have never cheated. But I would rather fail by not cheating.  I had always been eager to learn material to prepare me in the future when I was in college. If I failed it made me think I need to learn the material more. People who cheat may pass the exam, but the question is did they really learn the material to prepare them for their major.

I would actually rather pass it by cheating if I did I could always study up afterwards so I'll be able to pass it in case I ever have to take it again.
I wouldn't go overboard though like getting the right answer on every question but just cheat enough to pass.

On the rare chance I somehow forget to study and am doing horribly on a test Id rather pass with cheating. You could think less of me but I'm not gonna let one bad grade ruin my overall mark when I've worked hard. When I get 100% my average goes up by 1 or 2 %. But one fail and it goes down by 5-10%. I'm not gonna let that happen. I could always study afterwards anyways.

I would rather fail without cheating, because I might feel very guilty if I get through the test by cheating. And it would feel even more horrible if I'd get caught of it. So that's why I prefer study hard before tests than fail by knowing that I've not studied for them at all.

I rather fail a test without cheating than pass a test by cheating. I rather be honest and just take the test with what I know than take it and use others' knowledge. I prefer to go on in life knowing I need to focus more on what I failed on then go on the rest of my life with some sort of guilt knowing I cheated on a test.

I'd rather not cheat and fail. I care more about doing what's right than my grade, and also I feel really guilty really easily, so I try to avoid that whenever possible.

Yes, I'd cheat. I'm not too perturbed by the concept- If I can do it and not get caught, then why not? I'm not going to try and morally justify my actions, but logically, it does make the most sense.

If I were to cheat, then in reality I'm not as smart as I thought I was. I'm all about proving one's self-- by playing by the rules. And playing by the rules, I shall do! Also, I'd get in big trouble if I were to cheat.
