i think that cheating can sometimes be a bad idea, because it risks getting caught and getting a zero. but when you haven't had enough time to prepare for a test it can be a good thing becuase if you don't end up getting caught then you have a better chance of getting a good grade than if you were to just guess on everything. i try not to cheat too much, though, because i know its not very wise and its not honest. i've never used my cell phone to cheat. thats just twice as dumb, because then i would get in trouble for having my phone and for cheating. i definately would't get away with that.
