I am an A level teacher and i know that over 95 % of students dont prododuce 100 % of the memorised answers( unless they do something like u did !). On one hand u acheived wot u wanted.... on the other hand ... think of another student, who had memorised the same stuff the previous night; and could only produce 80% of it in the exam ... he worked harder than u did , but probably wont get an A ... so i think u shud feel guilty n try not to do it again.

There are many adjectives that describe cheating and those that wish to engage in the past time. Why bother? You are only cheating on yourself and that in the long term, gets you nowhere, so dont do it! The risk of discovery may follow you for the rest of your life, worse it could end a high profile career by crawling out of the woodwork and biting your gluteous maximus very hard indeed

I would. You are taking an opportunity away from a more qualified applicant.
More importantly, what good does cheating do? If you don't know the information, you are at a big loss for your future. You should be trying to get the most out of your education, while you have the opportunity, not fudging your way.

Well Ben, what type of response did you think you would get ? Some people think it is o.k. as long as you don't get caught, strange - but that is the same type of thought process as a criminal. What do you want to do ? Confess ? You are entitled to make mistakes in your life, but, you also have to be certain that you can live with the outcome. There is a very old and very wise saying........CHEATS NEVER PROSPER........ sweet dreams.

YES!!! Of course you should feel guilty! You didn't earn the grade you got. Chances are if you had STUDIED you would have done well anyway. If you were smart enough to hide the answer in such an ingenious place, then I think you were smart enough to ace it on your own.

Yes you should! You don't deserve the place in Uni and it should go to the person who actually earned it. You will find it a lot mpre difficult to cheat in Uni, so don't make any plans for graduation

If you didn't feel guilty you wouldn't have come on here asking about it, would you? Which makes the question quite pointless, which makes me think it's more likely you're attention seeking, which makes me think it probably didn't happen.
But yes, if what you say actually happened, anyway.

Don't know about feeling guilty, but you'll never know if you would have deserved your uni place now.
You'll probably wonder if you hadn't cheated, just how good you were at the subject. You'll never know now.

If you can live with it knowing you didn't earn your place in uni then that's up to you ,
I know i couldn't cheat because it would be no achievement if you are going to uni you had better prove yourself to make up for your cheating
