re: How much did you cheat in college?

My first time cheating was some computer programming class we had to take our 2nd semester. C program, old man professor talked like a frog. He would give out a sheet of paper with 3 or 4 questions on them for you to write the code out for. The questions were straight from the book, with maybe a few letters or numbers different that wouldnt' affect the outcome. He would then hand out about 10 pages of blank white peices of paper for us to write the code on.
We would write out every book question answer on blank sheets of paper and put them in a quick and easily accessible place in our bag and at some point take them out once the test started, then change the few variables he changed around, turn in the correct sheets, throw away the others. Easy 100.
Was a pointless class that we never used again in engineering.
Did plenty of cheating on homework, but that really does nothing for you when you go to take the tests, which is why most teachers didn't care if you cheated on homework b/c they'd get you on the tests. We'd study old tests but i don't think that's cheating. hell some of the teachers had old tests they'd give us to help us study. If a teacher puts a book question, or old test question that they know we have access to, then they didnt' care if we were actually learning anything.
I finished thermodynamics with an average below 60, which got me a C. i know more about thermo than i do about Dynamics, a class in which i got an A in. Gonthier made sure he tested your knowledge of the subject, not your memorization of homework problems.
I do know a guy that failed out of ME, somehow switched over to PE after we all graduated, befriended some nerd in one of his classes who was a computer hacker. They hacked into LSU's system and to their teachers computers so they would see the tests with answers that they were about to take. This idiot graduated with 3.7gpa in PE, and knew barely anythign about PE. He makes $500k/yr now and has been employed for a 6 years. I assumed he'd get hired on somewhere and his employee would realize real quick he knew nothing and fire him. Goes to show you how much college is really more about the experience than the actual education, and how little what you learn in college sometimes applies to your job.

This was not my experience at all with ME 2334.
Was told at the beginning of the semester there would be no curve and you would fail if below a certain grade. Lube was given out sparingly and secondhand.

Mother fricker should've just been a con man. That's next level manipulation.
