A friend of mine has made fake certificates and submitted those at a university to get admission. He is studying there for his undergraduate studies and also getting scholarship. for his secondary and higher school grades (which are false as he has fake his certificates). I know the university will never find that he is fake because they will never verify it. I cannot inform the university about that as I am his friend and maybe if I do he will take revenge. I am having frastrations when I think about this because I am paying to the universities for my credit hours though I have real but ordinary results. \n\nPlease, put your opinion.

Life is a boomerang! Whether it is your thoughts, actions or behavior, sooner or later they return - and with great accuracy. \n\nYour friend has done this for the admission and scholarship and he is getting it. We can understand that. But scholarship for what? admission for what? To study, right? And scholarship (almost in every University) offers some obligation as for example scoring a minimum level of mentioned CGPA (like 3.5 or above) to continue with the scholarship. Do you think he is able to do that?\n\nLet think like this, he got an admission to complete his undergraduate studies and for maintaining his scholarship he needs to work hard to score required CGPA which only good and seriosu students can. If he can score that and do really works hard this time then I would say he is paying off for his past and he is a good student. But, if he fails to do that then what will he do? What?\n\nNo answer. \n\nYes, he will again cheat. But, for how long. This path has no end unless he now become serious and work really hard and try to be a good student.\n\nLet us watch him. What he does. Time will answer.\n\nAnd, for your convenience I will say just work hard and study well. After graduating and as you will get a job you will be able to earn a lot of money which is worth getting a scholarship or financial aid by cheating.\n\nYou can send a annonomyous letter to the University authority and inform them about this. But, if your friend is a poor guy and really needs scholarship and is doing well then no need to do that. The university will itself find it out if he performs bad in his education. I believe as your friend had done this for admission and scholarship thus it proves he wants education and he is quite poor or unable to pay for his education. But, if he is doing that for fun, it will end very soon and I think you have to do anything for that.\n\nJust, focus on your study and eard good grades and then apply for scholarship if you want.\n\nLife is too long then we think and cheating will only make it a hell. A long journey in the hell is not a good thing.\n\nRelax and keep learning from your experience.\n\nGoodLuck!

You should go by your campus legal assistance office, I am pretty sure your school will have one.  You could also report him to the BBB.

If you submit it to anything like turnitin.com, you will be caught. You might also get caught if someone else has used or uses the same paper and the prof realizes it....plus it's plagerism because you didn't write it and those companies have stock papers they give you, so many others who buy the paper get the same one...kind of a bad thing to do, just suffer and write it like everyone else (who is honest lol)

Well, in the end the fakers have an impact on who their message reaches. They are often found out and their fakeness reflects poorly on whomever they claim to represent.  Let's be frank. Those who are able, should. But they must realize they ARE their brother's keeper. So they also have to make ammends for those who can't.  Whether or not we wish the fakers would keep quiet is irrevelant. They do what they will. Just be ready with your knowledge to defeat the ignorance they introduce. Its all that can be done.

I don't think its technically illegal but it's not wise because you are violating someone else's privacy if you give out their full name.  I'm sorry you got in trouble and I don't think it's the school's place to correct an issue like this unless you did it while you were at school and in that case maybe the issue was more about using this type of website inappropriately. Either way, lesson learned, right? Don't use other people's names even if you're not saying something "bad" it still could be information they'd rather not have posted online.

I really like your questions.\n\nThe people who think that must not have any college experience.\nI worked harder at college than at anything ever in my 53 years of life. I love my degree because I know how hard I worked to earn it.\n\nIt sounds like another way to subtley put you down, to say that you have it easy.  It also sounds like they may resent you for having the drive and ambition to go to college when they do not.\nLearn to recognize the subtle putdowns these people are giving you and try to avoid them if you can. I would definitely avoid someone who told me that college was not really work. \nIn the book "The Verbally Abusinve Relationship", being told that going to college is not really work, and similar comments that belittle what you are doing, is called discounting and is a form of verbal abuse. The person who does this wants to make you feel bad, and by doing so they feel good. Sick, isn't it?\n\nThey are "discounting" your efforts as not being worthwhile.\n\nDid I mention that you need to read the book,\nThe Verbally Abusive Relationship? available on \nhttp://www.amazon.com

At my university (and I would imagine at most others), it is definitely considered cheating, and sanctions for doing it range from a reprimand to losing credit or being removed from the university.\n\nSpecific quote: "Multiple submission - submitting the same paper or oral report for credit in two courses without the instructor's permission; making minor revisions in a paper or report for which credit has already been received and submitting it again as a new piece of work." \n\nIf you're just reusing old material, you're not actually learning anything from the course, are you? (That'd be the general you, not a specific you!) It's often in the process of writing an essay that I figure things out and finally "get" them :)\n\nEdit: just noticed that someone else gave the same site - I wasn't expecting another answerer from my university!

You're in a pickle. In the future, ask someone if you can trust him/her to keep a secret before telling the person a secret. Of course it's wrong to have a BB gun and real guns on campus. SO if the important person was the principle, you did the right thing, and the troublesome guy shouldn't be a friend of yours. Relax, find a better guy to be friends with, now that the trouble maker is out of the way.

say,"I saw your GPA,and I was just wondering--why did you make me feel stupid for so many years when you have a lower GPA than me?"  she will be stopped in her tracks.that's how my friend was last year before she moved.she'd make fun of me cause I didn't make a perfect "A" but still a "B",and she'd lead me on to thinking that she mad an "A" when she was really making a "D".finally,I found out her lie and confronted her.I found out that she was actually jealous of me,so she thought she had to make a better grade than me.this girl may be jealous of you,too.

Deffinetly, if you let him get away with cheating he is just going to do it again, and you need to set an example for other student's who might also be cheating. You deff need to nip it in the bud before he does it again, even if it is extra work to change the grade. good luck !

No, I have not. Cheating is not fun or getting something over on the teacher and your parents. Cheating is only hurting yourself. Instead of cheating, you should have studied every night throughout the year so that you would know the material of the course and all you would have to when the teacher announced that it was time for finals would be to review the material. This does mean waiting until the last minute and staying up all night studying or having some friends over ostensibly to study but instead partying all night until the early hours of the morning so that nobody knows anything the next day. When you take a course in high school or college or even elementary school, it is wrong to cheat because as I said earlier you are only hurting yourself; you're mot hurting anybody else.

Better get a lawyer who can check for you without revealing your identity. \nBy the way, many profs have faked on their appicatons and are getting away with it.

Sounds like a ripoff scheme to me. You have got to do better in explaining what this all about and where your students come from, what nationality, and who are you in relationship to them?

hahaha, you think someone will randomly sponsor you.  hahahahaha.  bet you arent a genuine student.

NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! \n\nNo one is responsible for your action but you. \n\nIf you were duped into believing someone else was great and you emulated them and it leads to trouble or if you find out that this person you thought was great is in fact a liar and not worth your time, then anything that you have done foolish or wrong to win their approval or emulate them is your won responsibly. Blaming them is NOT the right way to go. It is unhealthy and immature. You should look at yourself and figure out why you needed them in the first place and then overcome your own personal issues. Then you will be at the road to proper attitude. \n\nI hope this helps.

They are really quality answers. Very well written, to the point and informative. However, just some things you might want to keep in mind... answers like the hypothesis one or red pony were i think answered in a way best suited to Yahoo Answers. But for example you included one of your papers along with the professor's name, course number, etc. etc.... i would not want to include an entire paper of mine in which i had put in so much time and effort, on a site like this. other's might plagiarize even without meaning to do so, and it is best to give them pointers or general comments rather than sharing your entire work. But that's just my opinion, you may feel comfortable sharing it. If I were you, i would keep some of my really good ideas to myself rather than divulging everything... because in the world of academics, original ideas count.

I know exactly what your saying! A person in my immediate family does this constantly, and it gets to the point where you don't know what to believe and what not to. And in my experience, if they are habitual/pathological liars, calling them on it has little effect. Sometimes I wonder about the things they lie about ( in particular a card game that never occurred). If I were you, I would reevaluate my friendship/relationship with that person and consider if it's worth the time and effort...Hope it works out for you ..
