The scale needs to stop when the individual feels that they arent comfortable anymore. There is no “set” point where everybody feels bad and they know they shouldnt have done that. Yes, even murderers often dont feel guilty about killing, they are just sorry they got caught. As for me, I personally would not kill anyone to reach the highest highschool rank. Would someothers, yes I am sure some would.

“Whats happened to this world” In today’s world, most people feel the only way to happiness is through money, or fame. Thus, the inhabitants of this world, are driven by that crazy competion to achieve those goals. Those goals are what is considered “successful” by society. If the defintion of “successfull” changed to a individual level, some people would be happy finding love and settling down to raise a family. Some people would work the jobs that they like, even if they are low paying. Yet some still would try to have jobs where the money flows freely, because that is what they consider success. I think if the people started to realize their own goals, then there wouldnt be cheating. Every person is unique and so cheating to achieve there dream would be like copying a different test, it just wouldnt work.
