Advice To Students On Examination Malpractices

 So basically, I know am meant to define examination malpractice for y'all but you know perfectly what it is so am just gonna cut to the chase here. Malpractice is a bad thing, its really bad cause it means while other students are in the same exam hall with you trying to figure out answers to the same question as you, you are busy with the intention of "cheating".

Exam cheating is criminal, its sinful as anything that includes cheating in it isn't accepted by any culture all over the world and even God himself in his glory detest cheating.

The thing with most students who become exam cheats is they see it as a normal thing.

They most definitely know its not a good thing but they don't see it as an extremely bad habit, owning to the fact that students in nigeria cheat at every level of education in modern times, the primary school level, the secondary school level and in universities.

The true fact about cheating is its extremely bad, that's why the consequence for cheating in all universities in Nigeria, and most definitely in Kogi state university is direct expulsion, there is no two ways about that.

I understand the fact that student are always under immense pressure to succeed academically,the thing about pressure though is that it can either be suppressed or increased depending on your actions towards tackling this pressure.

You want to pass a course by fire by force and you haven't been attending lecturers or studying and you think what will save you is expo's and exhibits, not only are you putting yourself under more pressure you are also putting yourself at risk of getting caught and getting expelled.

You might escape getting caught but you have just damaged yourself psychologically as you now think you can't pass without cheating.

To be honest,their's really no point cheating, because their's no point cheating to pass courses and having no idea what that course is about because you didn't study, then there is no point schooling at all if you can't fulfill the main purpose of you been in school which is learning and studying to build yourself into someone you will be proud of, someone your parents will be proud of, someone KSU will be proud of and Nigeria as a whole will be proud of.

You think your first class certificate is what companies out there need to further develop, then why are people who didn't even go to school succeeding in life (Dangote's schooling is still debatable) ?? Its your output that's needed.

Those big companies need your big brain, and what's been stored in it, meaning you have to learn in school, at the end of the day you can only give what you have.

Books and lectures aren't easy, some books are even harder to understand, but the thing about all learning processes is when you devote yourself to it, you'll understand. Start studying harder now, that's the only way.

Don't rely on cheating, you are only killing yourself when you cheat.
