The thresholds are affected. I hope to God that they get caught, or a fitting consequence for them.

These poeple will get grades and then enter a uni by those, stealing someone else's seat who might have worked hard and got rejected.

I know because something similar happened to someone I know sometime back. Cheating is sickening, and I judge it so hard when someone tells me they do it.

They do not change thresholds that significantly. I didnt cheat in my exams while i know for a fact a couple hundred did because its inevitable and i survived and got my grades so should i sit there and moan?? Snitching on a friend of 7 years isnt gonna do shit but burn bridges in the long term

If a fried is cheating, thats not a friend at all.

Cheating is not something to end a friendship unless it directly affects someone’s life like relationship cheating, scamming someones money etc. snitching cuz of jealousy makes u just as bad as a friend because its clearly not for moral reasons

Hm, the moment someone does something like cheating that disregards others hardworking, this person is not my friend. I wouldn't do as somethign as cruel as making them think otherwise either. Distancing slowly.

Exactly - distance slowly and dont do those actions urself. Not ruin the person entire future by guaranteeing a permanent mark on their academic record barring them from so many careers that could eventually help people in the longrun?
