Being a student all my life and not getting anywhere with it and also at the brink of giving up, here is why i think student decide to cheat.
Grades are more important than knowledge itself. Explanation to this is in every semester we hear the lecturer say "If you follow me step by step a Distinction is in your hands"... This right here is why. not enough you say?
Nothing from the above phrase indicates that we might learn anything, nothing to make us understand more of said subject whatever it may be. We are herded in drones just to chase the distinction promised if we do as they say.
The current Education system (writing here from a narrow view of my College and not implying other colleges in respect) in my college is everything is about the grades, nothing more nothing less. Education is not a given, You only obtain education here if you are lucky.
If some of you are asking if I'm a Top scorer then id have to say no. With a meager CGPA and next to nothing extra curricular prowess in just your average or below average Joe and I am writing this in disgust.
Nothing in the current education system prepares us for the the real world but that's not educational institutes are for. They are for Education and education is not solely for grades. We need to have more practical tests examined by external real time workers and not our biased lecturers. More hands on approach instead of just being graded.
Nothing more from me.. Salute
