Good point Anthony. I found this to be true in my university days. To write up an original chemistry lab report took me 8 hours. But to copy a previous lab report took me an hour--and I got a better mark. The profs and assistants knew 95% were copying. But it was hard to stop.

I didn't cheat in other courses. But there seemed only one way to not fail this chemistry course.

Had I not been in such a party mode in those years, I could have found the time and energy to be totally honest.
