Why is cheating wrong? Is anything gained by cheating?

Are you saying that cheating is ethical? Cheating is attempting to get the rewards of study and hard work--without doing either.

Yes it is... I know people who have passed highschool and/or college through cheating, bribery, etc. Then they get out into the work force with a degree they don't deserve and then end up messing something up in a job they don't understand.
I mean, okay, if you want to become a doctor and you cheat on your history test, no, I can't find anything particularly unethical in that if you're using that extra time to better your knowledge of medicine. But then again I've always found it stupid that you still have to take history, english, math, etc. in the first place in college even if your intended career has absolutely nothing to do with them. And plus how many people who cheat actually bother to do something important instead in the time they save?

Yes it is academic misconduct. Most universities will expel you for that and put it on your transcripts...so if you try to get into another college they will see you were expelled for cheating...and that in turn could get your admission denied at the new college.
Also...if someone cheats to get through school that means they didn't learn anything and their degree is worthless. As an employer, I would not be very happy if someone had a degree in 'subject X' and after I hired them I found out they weren't qualified because they didn't really know how to perform their job.

What could you possibly be gaining from cheating, besides trouble? You are learning nothing,. Maybe thats cool in high school, but after that where does that leave you? Nothing but an idiot adult , with no life or skills.

you are only cheating yourself. the whole reason you go to school, especially college, is to learn skills and knowledge so you can be productive and contribute to society. would you want a brain surgeon who cheated his way through med school operating on you ?? think about it.
