Why exactly is office hours like cheating? You go to have homework and assignments explained more clearly. If the rest of the class has a good grasp on the concepts and you don’t, the prof isn’t going to spend more time on the concept in class just for you. He/she will move on and anyone who is having trouble is EXPECTED to come to office hours if they want to not be lost come test time. Office hours is not for stupid people, and is not to be avoided by proud people. If you really want to do better/be proud, go to office hours so you’ll have a better shot at getting a good grade. That’s something to be proud of.
