Teacher repeats his test.

Published

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

It is NOT okay.

Even if it does catch up with them someday, it is more likely to be after they are in nursing school than before - stealing the spot of someone who actually deserves it.

That is exactly what I was thinking. They will get a spot in the program, fail out anyway, and someone who could have made it may not have gotten a seat.

An anonymous note to the professor never hurts.

Specializes in Pediatric/Adolescent, Med-Surg.

I agree. Or saying something in the anonymous class eval at the end of the semester.

Specializes in Critical Care, ED, Cath lab, CTPAC,Trauma.

In this day and age......if the Prof really cared he wouldn't use the same test. :sarcastic: 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.

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.

I will try to slip a note and do what I can. It's just not fair to the student that are really doing the right thing.
