I barely made a 3.0 average in undergrad. I cheated in HS and some in college. I hate studying and reading. I cant focus well. But I want to make more money. Should I go to grad school?

Don't go if you hate studying. You probably don't have the GPA for grad school -- it's pretty competitive.
Going to grad school doesn't necessarily mean you'll earn more money. I wouldn't go to grad school if that was my only or my primary motivation.

Graduate school isn't really about getting grades. It's about getting the best learning and training you can get so you can use it for many purposes, like making more money in a job or in business. Forget grad schoool if you hate studying or if you are just aiming for a passing grade and cheating your way through it. Graduate school is about honing your skills and whatever talent you may have so that it benefits you in the long term.

Not yet. Graduate and get a job. Enjoy life for a while. Get "it" out of your system. After some time, perhaps you'll be more motivated for various reasons (probably monetary) to get a graduate degree of some sort. Also, some companies will pay all or a portion of your tuition. Why not wait and take advantage of that? Plus, if your head is not in it, why would you want to waste time and money? You'll benefit from it more a few years down the road when you actually want to be there.

What is your career field or the field you want to enter? Some people make excellant money on a HS degree, but that's usually either 'cause they're lucky or very skilled in other areas. My instinct would be to say no, skip grad school, but it really depends on what you want to do later.

Have you been tested for ADD? i was like that. Cheated in HS, but now i'm a freshman in college who has his ADD being medicated. I had like a 2.4 in HS, now i have a 4.0 in college, and yea, they are hard classes designed for second year studnets. I'm sure you have the capacity to perform well in school, but maybe the desire isn't there. Grad school is probably college studying x3. So i wouldn't recommend it

I think you should go to grad school, but wait until you are ready. I tried to go when I'd really just had enough already and dropped out. Lost $ and got depressed. But I think it is important to do. Give yourself some time. Rest, enjoy life for awhile, then give give it a chance. Good luck!

If you hate studying, then you would do terrible in grad school.
