Nope, never cheated;  didn't have to.  I knew I was bad in math; why pretend?

But you better believe I ratted motherfuckers out.

Never did any major cheating.  There were some gray areas here & there, but nothing worth mentioning.

And I never turned anyone in-- I figured it would catch up to them eventually.

I cheated a small bit in high school.  I don't think I cheated in any of my couple years of college.

I did help other people cheat much more.  There is one kid who would have failed geology 101 if I didn't let him copy all of my test answers.  I remember he came from a very rich family, I might have to look him up.

Tell me what you did and I'll tell you where it falls.

Cheated once, but felt bad about it and never did it again.

Hey, it was difficult enough to spend the time hating on the really smart kids, didn't have time to let the cheaters increase the pack.  So fuck 'em.

Only a couple of times in earth science junior high school class.  I really detested earth science, I was sitting in the back, and the teacher was not good at keeping control of the classroom, so it was pretty rowdy there.  That meant that I learned next to nothing in that class all year. 

My family just bought a bubble jet printer (which was the shit compared to dot matrix printers in vogue at the time), and it occured to me that this printer could print at a very fine resolution.  Before the tests, I would type out all the stuff I would need, shrink it to size 1 (MS Word couldn't do it, but WordPerfect could), and print a copy for myself and a couple of friends.  I did it more for the thrill of of it, and for the novelty of using technology to cheat more effectively, than to help myself.  Usually in the process of creating the cheating aids I would inadvertently commit to memory most of what I needed for the test.

The fun stopped when one asshole who I warred with all throughout junior high school stole one of my cheat sheets.  It was pretty common knowledge by that time that all my friends were being equipped with my cheat sheets, so he wanted one for himself.  I used my Ukrainian school training to beat the cheat sheet out of him, collected the cheat sheets from all my friends, and destroyed them before the asshole could narc us out.  That was the end of that glorious adventure.

I don't remember cheating, but there were probably some grey-area instances.  I guess I did let other people copy off of me if I was pressured to, but that was pretty much over by the time I started high school and its stratification in courses.
