| Think about it this way: Imagine you're taking a test on, say, ancient Sumerian history. You're going to be an Engineering major and will never take a history class in college. Your teacher is very attentive; cheating is extremely difficult. The test itself is practically impossible; a B is just about unattainable, much less an A.
Which will be a more beneficial skill in the long run: the ability to pass such a test over information that is ultimately useless to you, or the ability to cheat successfully on it?
The answer should be pretty obvious. |
