Is this cheating?

A girl I'm in summer class with (we are both prenursing) was listening to me moan and groan about my math course... She turns to me and says "oh just get Xyz website it does it all for you".

I think that's cheating, and I'm sooooo mad, she's in the same online math as I am and I really feel like turning her in! It's not fair I have to struggle to get my A and she will get an A without trying!

Can I even prove her cheating? Am I overreacting?

Don't worry with her, this will come back and bite her in the butt soon enough. As for you, do the work and get the grades you earned. It will help you in the end :)

Don't worry about it for two reasons.

1. In our nursing program, there was a math test on day one of each semester. If you failed it, you sat the whole semester out. One of the two hospitals I've worked at also required a math test as part of the interview process. In other words, you don't get ahead by not bothering.

2. We all use resources in the real world, too. I don't have everything I need to know memorized, I just know where to look for it.

It will catch up to her. What is she going to do when your entrance exam has math problems? Just worry about what you are doing. I

OMG she would probably fail the TEAS! It never even occurred to me... TBH that makes me feel a lot better about letting it go!

Don't worry about what this person does. Focus all of your energy on doing well in the math class. It might be infuriating but your hard work and effort will pay off in the long run.

Ah, yes, the math test/ dosage calculations test. No worries; if you've learned how to solve the problems asked, you'll pass. She hasn't? Won't be seeing her anymore.

I remember a student years ago asking why she failed the dosage calc exam, it was SOOO000ooo unfair, it was only ONE equation she got wrong. Instructor's response was "tell it to the family of the patient you just killed".

The end.
