Student Success Statement


                                       

“I would prefer to fail with honor than win by cheating.”-Sophocles

Reflection:

I myself agree with this statement because it’s so true. It’s better to try you best and fail instead of cheating and winning. Sometimes it is hard to choose not to cheat in something you know you didn’t study for, but we need to choose what’s right. Especially on tests or quizzes, we shouldn’t cheat, we should try our best and learn our lesson that next, and we will prepare ourselves for it. It’s better to be wise and admit that you didn’t study and fail with honor knowing that you didn’t cheat, than not studying but cheating and still getting a good score sounds foolish to me. Why can’t people just admit that they didn’t study, today’s society is too ashamed to tell the truth because we’re so use to saying lies. We must learn that the lies will become bigger and bigger and will haunt us for a while but then the truth will spill out and we still have to confess. Always choose the right thing to honor yourself.
