End of Lecture for First Semester

Happy Halloween.

Today was my last day of lecture for this semester.
It ended with a General Physics Test 2 that lasted for one and a half hour.
I would like to ask whether it is ethical for people to cheat during their quizzes, test or even exam.
I found out that it's a norm for nowadays students to cheat during these events.
I had questioned a few person that I saw them cheating. Do you know what is their reply?
"Man, the person invigilating does not care, so take up the chance to CHEAT." Some even said that its normal for humans to cheat in life especially in the society.
These people should know that you are able cheat the whole world but you not able to cheat yourself. If they are really build up with adequate knowledge before going for test, they should not cheat. When they cheat, they are actually underestimating their own ability to strive in life.

Do you think that it's fair for those who really worked hard and yet some who did not score the same with those who cheated? To me those who cheats are just being unfair to themselves actually.

I would like to tell you a quote by my former school principal, Datuk Noor Rezan Bapoo Hashim.
"When you win, you win with pride, when you lose, you lose gracefully".

  2. Yes, we are too straight for this society. And it's very, very, VERY difficult to live by your values and even more strenuous to live with those against your values. Then how? Well if you're powerless, just bear with it and carry on, always believing and doing what's right. But if you feel like rebelling, then be crooked to straighten the crooked.
