The Nigerian is right about networking and shyt, I really lacked in that department, but the people I know, aww man these white boys basically run O&G outside of Exxon, she'll and those huge multinational corps.

The crazy thing about the networking aspect of college is that you don't even need to go to do it. You can just network on a campus setting while you work during the day. You can email professors and sit in classes for free.
If you see someone doing something that you think you would want to do... ask then about it. You'll be surprised how far you can get just talking to people you come across on these forums, facebook, twitter. I landed my first gig from a guy I only knew from forums and on Facebook.
As an engineer let me tell you, EVERYBODY CHEATS IN SCHOOL. Its simply too much shyt for a student to commit to memory. The bridge didnt collapse because an engineer cheated in school. No one person would be left with the task of designing that bridge. For something that catastrophic to happen the entire network would have to fail. That includes the entire team of engineers who designed it, the code enforcers, the builders, etc.....
I dont do anything that sensitive. I work in logistics and even i cant change or implement a damn thing without at least 2-3 other people verifying my plan for soundness.
I have 3 friends who are doctors and my girl is a nurse practitioner. All them cats cheat too. There is no way a person can know the symptoms and treatments for every random thing they see. They usually speak with other doctors or look it up on their computer when they go in the back if they see something that isnt common. Malpractice usually doesn't occur because the doctor doesn't know something its because they are trying to circumvent rules.

"Cheating" is such a nonsense concept in the information age.
People need to be more focused on critical thinking as opposed to memorizing random bullsh!t that can be referenced with a Google search on your smartphone.

This is the Truth!..I'm in Finance, Fortunately for me I interned with the company I'm with now my junior year..When I graduated and applied for a full time position..They didn't ask me for my GPA, They didn't even check to see if I actually graduated..I could of dropped out of school a year later for all they know
..They just hired me because I was their intern..Network/internships/Co-ops are key in this life!
Freshman yr...
I originally had Computer Science as a major but struggled. Decided to get out 2nd semester but still had to finish said semester. We used to have the lab (big auditorium with comps) for one of the classes. Before people really started using flash drives we saved our shyt on a server. Everybody had a login to get to their folder.
One day in class I was bullshyttin' and hit the back button in my folder. All of a sudden I see everybody's folders. My desperate dumbass takes it in as a glitch.
I check the shyt again at home and eventually copied this smart dude's shyt to my program. (We had assignments where you did so much for a 'D', this much for a 'C', etc.) Next class, I get a message from my professor saying that dude's file ended up in mine (one of his got hidden when I tried deleting his shyt) but he told all of us to be careful and make sure you log off your computer when done. Since I wasn't technically caught, I ended up doing that shyt for the rest of the year.
Then I saw my final grades.....
Lucky my ass didn't get kicked out for that. lol

Now see I remember those days. A nikka was undefeated since high school with the plagiarizing shyt. I always picked from mad sites and knew which words to switch. I remember laughing my ass off when this dude got caught while I'mI cheated in about everything except for classes in my major because we see the teacher all the time so a good reputation is important...
I even got caught cheating on an English paper...
Me and everybody in the class was in the library getting our papers together (day it was due). I started the day prior and was finishing up the next day on a different computer.
I did a Ctrl +A and changed the font so that it all matched. For some reason it only changed the first page. We were rushing cause the class was up next and I didn't notice the font difference. My teacher read the paper, noticed a font change and searched random phrases of my paper (which I paraphrased) but found the source(s).
It was enough to know I aint write the paper I just reworded some shyt I saw online...wrote me up and got an on record warning...a second warning and I woulda got expelled.
I still cheated my ass off...
How do you even go about cheating? I don't think I've cheated once in school, college or University. Exams are impossible to cheat on here in the UK. Theres always a ridiculous amount of invigilators looking around the room. The only way you could cheat is take notes in in your pocket then go to the toilet, go in the cubicle and have a read.
The only time I've ever really regretted cheating was during the final exam of a course I had. I was getting A's/B's throughout the semester but got so consumed worrying about another class' final I never really studied for this one. Since we could jot down notes during our tests I decided to write notes over two pages. Writing so hard that the bottom page had imprints. I used the bottom page so that way, unless you're up close to the page, you can't see shyt anyway. Fill in the grooves like I just writing notes/ideas. Already sitting in the back of the class, it was easier to pull off.
I hated to do that since the professor was cool and I had been doing so well in the course anyway but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. lol

I went to college from 02-06 so I was a little bit before the boom of the smartphone era, I did it the old fashioned way, cheat sheets with formulas and shyt for my finance/business courses, facts and names for electives. I used to type up shyt in the smallest font imaginable, cut em up and then create little flipbooks that I could press against exam books to conceal them. TI-86 shyt was cool too but that was too much work to me. These responses in here about looking right off of other people's tests are bug to me tho, my class sizes were usually 25-30 people, I don't see how ur pulling that shyt off without a prof seeing it.

Just wait for Econometrics... blah...Econ
I used to cheat a little bit......I would write formulas that I couldn't remember on a sheet of paper then I would tape the paper on the inside of my shirt right on the bottom.....when you sit down just flip the bottom of your shirt up and there you go.....cheats right on your lap....

...I remember when one of my IT classes made us buy a PDA for the work we were gonna do...That shyt took my cheating in other classes to whole nother level
I was "Ctrl+F"in' like a mutha fukka...fukk a cheat sheet I had whole books and shyt...
EDIT: I remember highscool cheatin' too. I remember when I literally sat directly in front of the teacher and cheated. Back then we wore baggy white Ts so I went to the computer lab, printer my cheat sheet in size 2 (maybe 3) font and placed it in my lap...with my baggy ass Tee she couldn't tell. She would periodically walk around, so I would just flap the bottom of my Tee over the cheat sheet and lean forward and she never noticed...
What yall know about flexible eyes. I used at the person next to me without turning my head...I was like a damn lizard with the shyt...
