I'm so mad i study for weeks for my microbiology test every time and other people are just relaxing because they have all the test answers. Like seriously I want to tell the teacher, but something tells me that it's okay. They won't go far with the cheating in this career path. I don't no. Supper mad

Nov 29, 2012 In this day and age......if the Prof really cared he wouldn't use the same test. It's laziness and lack of true caring that makes them reuse a test. You can leave a note but I don't think they'd care.
astronomia 48 Posts Nov 29, 2012 I have had many professors who did this, including a microbiology professor. Don't let it affect your integrity and just keep studying the material to build it long-term. You will be the one who has the advantage later on when you can critically apply the concepts, while they can only regurgitate a single answer to a specifically-worded question. One of the guys I took microbiology with last semester is failing the lab this semester for this exact same reason.
