I have to agree with CRD, especially considering the language the OP is using in this thread. He just doesn’t get it.
I can’t tell if you are angry at yourself for cheating or for getting caught. It’s an integrity issue. Do the consequences factor into your decision about when to cheat? Does how often other people cheat factor into your decision about cheating?
You are in a graduate program. Presumably you need to learn the material in order to earn your degree. I sure hope it’s not a degree where people are going to have to rely on you actually knowing what your credentials say that you know.
You haven’t learned it so you haven’t earned it.
You asked for advice, and the only thing I can say is live with integrity.
The OP hasn’t been back in three days, so our advice is probably falling on deaf ears!
