In a lot of my classes, I have seen students blatantly cheating.
For example in large inclined classrooms they would sit at the top, and share answers on their laps. No proctor could walk up to them, before they hid the papers under their chair. And because it's inclined, it was almost impossible to see them as you walked up. But the door, sits at the very top, so as I left, I could see them cheating.
I have seen a lot of other pre med students in my classes cheating like this, usually sharing answers, and it's (pardon the stereotype) the frat/sorority boys/girls who are usually doing it, but while, throughout all the lectures, its these frat boys and sorority girls who constantly talk during the class.
Also, in two notable pre med classes I have taken, we often had pop quizzes at the end of some of the lectures. These kids would skip the entire class, and show up 10 minutes before it got out, just taking the quiz.
Now, I want to hope they will get what they deserve, but I can't help but feel like, I am getting screwed because of these other kids. Generally I wouldnt care, but for some reason, when I see these potential competitors for medical school seats, cheating, I get really mad. I know its partially the professors fault, because they could easily stop it, and they obviously dont want to but still.
Does anybody else get mad (physically angry) when they see people cheating, or would you get mad if you saw other students show up just to take quizzes like that??
