I only did it for the dumb shit like homework which was a waste of time. Exams were impossible to cheat in.
No. My peers didn't get the same grades I did. I was better off doing everything myself.![]()
Depends on what you mean but I have never "cheated" if that involves any form of plagiarism (including copying other peoples work or illegitimately acquiring answers to tests etc).
I have and continue to experiment with all sorts of "smart drugs", including prescription-only ones like ritalin and modafinil, though. I guess it is "cheating" in a very abstract sense since I do have an unfair advantage in that I get more studying done with them than without them (and a lot, probably most, of people do not use them).
Can I copy your Geometry homework?
Wait what? You use drugs to study? You a sick madafaka you know that?
I used to use 60 mg Adoral before an exam- that's not cheating,- just optimization.
If you eat healthy foods and get a good nights rest you get a similar benefit. It's just that with today's standards of HW- especially those rediculous AP courses and evil teachers that's not
Practical.
I would copy homework. No way was I gonna go home and do school work, you gotta be kidding me.
Yup, let me briefly describe to you the difference it can make: in the first year of uni, I didn't use anything. And on the 3 weeks "break" I had before all my exams in May, I typically got 3-6 hours of serious studying done (its very easy to half-listen to a lecture but reading a Physics textbook/notes and doing problems isn't so easy). Discovered the whole world of nootropics in the beginning of my second year and started experimenting. As the finals of the 2nd year approached in April again, that month, on the best days where I would use my base stack of safe drugs (including the best racetams with tolerance issues like phenyl) with an amphetamine throughout the day, I would get 12+ hours of serious studying done. No ****ing joke.
Im physically active / healthy and get 8 hours of sleep daily. I also never have any issues with concentration during exams and if you don't either, I don't see why you are using an amphetamine for that - seems a very noob-ish thing to do. Use that adderall, alternated with another amphetamine (not a good idea to use a single drug of this class more than once a week imo), every Saturday/Sunday during studying hours instead and see where that gets you -even an extra 2 hours per day with use will get you 40 extra hours of work a term (assuming a term of 10 weeks).
And for people who want no risk, check out the completely legal and safe class of drugs known as the racetams (piracetam etc). They are not as powerful as amphetamines but are still a far better and more powerful (especially if you stack them) alternative to caffeine.
