Why the heck we should not cheat??

I am devastated. I was a firm believer that not cheating in exam virtually pay in last. I start preparing form MCSE 3 month before, never looked for braindump. Used some of the best practice exams and study guide, such as certguide,examnotes and ucertify's. Also I did lots of practice with real software. In last three month I passed 4 exam. I also have more than 5 year experience with Microsoft network. While one of my friend, just passed all of his exams for MCSE in 1 month. He recently got a job in another company with a better pay. He has good experience (7 years so I do not think he will have much problem, also as he got big projects, he will be working on real technology instead of simulation and doing practical in lab. Now I am not sure weather I am doing right thing or not cheating in exam by reading the braindumps.

I have 4 years of MCSE experience it all started with a pirate copy of NT Server

The braindump was avalible u didn't use it, that's ur problem. U know we are all the same when it comes to the "Unknown Error, contact your sys admn" just restart the Pc and its gone

That time a paper guy is more worth than ur XXXXing experience. U know the stuff memory was over used who cares Microsoft themselves have no idea of the problem its better to say "Microsoft Error, stop using windows"

If you're going to cheat on the M$ exams, might as well cheat on everything else in life, eh? Good philosphy, for a loser! If you can't be ethical when taking exams, how are you going to act in everyday situations? There's an old saying, and no, I don't know who said it or when they said. It goes something like this:

"Winners never cheat, and cheaters never win."

So I guess you could say, that only LOSERS cheat.

Just my .02 cents.

i know how you feel about wanting to cheat on these exams when its so freaking easy to cheat on them, example i have taken three exams in the past few months and passed, i have a friend who took 6 yea 6 exams in 3 month by using BrainDumps, that just boiled me up and i told him okay you know dont tell me anymore i dont want to hear it, so one day he calls me to help him build a DHCP server and i am like you are freaking MCSE certified now and you cant build a DHCP server on your own how are you going to make it out there, and one day he will be called out on his skills and not know what to do , what call i dont think so but it might happen sad but true

Dont Cheat Study hard and earn it you will get our respect and you will really know your stuff..

I actually started cheating myself

I was given some brain dumps by a friend and couldn't resist the urge to use them.

Maybe I'm impatient, maybe I’m under a lot of pressure to get as many certs as I can as fast as I can while I'm job hunting or maybe I'm just a cheater...

I felt pretty bad about it actually but I went in to take the test and only saw a couple questions (5 actually, I counted, and I only remembered the correct answer to 2 or 3 if that matters at all) from the brain dump. Everything else I had never seen before. It was an odd feeling, but I was SOO happy that I took and passed a test w/out cheating when I thought I had cheated...I don't think I could ever use a brain dump again. The feeling of personal accomplishment makes it worth not cheating...even if knowledge itself wasn't enough for you.

I know it sucks to be "out done" by a cheater, but trust me, it's worth it to know your stuff and do it the right way.

I've actually started studying from non-study guide books for my tests. I have books on Active directory, DNS, DHCP, TCP/IP troubleshooting, etc, etc...Rather than MS 70-2xx study books.

I may not get my next test for a while, but I’ll feel so much better about it, and I'll know so much more, it will be worth every minute I spent on it. In addition to boosting self esteem it can boost confidence in what you know and interviewers seem to be able to nearly smell self confidence.

Time, patience and a lot of hard work and you'll land a job. Quickly proving your worth you can move your way up and up and up because you know your stuff and you love what you do enough to work hard at it.
