Lately, I hjave been noticing many kids my age getting high grades such as 90's and above. Sure this mabey good for them but not me. I know for a fact many of my peers do infact cheat or are simply not smart enough to get such grades. I know I may sound narcississtic when I say this but it really pisses me off. My current average is roughly an 84, It should be around 95; I have proof. I voluntiered to take 3 different IQ exams, primeraly focusing on math and logic. Anyway, my average was roughly a 120. I am very satisfied its just that it bothers me on how I see kids who truely dont deserve these high grades getting them. For Gods sake I know several kids who during a chemistry lab, go around to each lab group and asking for the right answers. Many more instances of this type of cheating do come about. I was just wondering if there is anything I can do/should do; mabey contact and administrator. Im just feeling paranoid about grades and everything because I know class rank is higlhy regarded and I'd like to see myself get into a decent college and not some reject cheater.
As long as you make straight A's you shouldn't have to worry about rank. Take all the pre AP courses you can and focus more on your own work than everyone else's.
It's the top 2% of the class that can choose which ever college they want to go to. If you are as smart as you think you are you should have no trouble. If someone depends primarily on cheating to make their grades, then they're going to have to cheat an awful lot to make a high class ranking. The more they cheat the higher the chance that they are caught and dealt with.
If I were you I would mind your own business. You can get into an unpredictable mess if you decide to snitch. I've seen it before.
Rat on'em if you wish but if they find out well they'll be pissed... but if your getting A's who cares eh?

I have a friend who have a hard time with tests and diffrent tasks and stuff our teacher asks us to do. I sit next to him and i know that he looks at my papers all the time. I don't care, He deserves to have it a little easier..But if he keeps just looking at me it will punish him later on.
I'm assuming these aren't final exams from which you get qualifications. They are hard to cheat on, so rest assured that when the time comes their grades will fall down. Hard.
Thanks for all ur advice guys but the problem is that I am only getting ~84 and seeing asshole cheaters getting high grades really pisses me off because they didnt earn it. I also have a freind who is just as smart as me and he notices this as well. Perhaps Im the one with a problem I dont know. @rich19, no they arent this BS goes on everyday; I usually do fine on those big exams though.
But they don't, right? If they can't get good grades the old fashioned way by working for them they they can't do well at the end of the year.
True true
cheating is the easy way out for alot of people there the ones cheating them self out of good job, while the people who study will get better job in the long run.

You should tell about cheating for administrator (unless they feel suspicion towards you) and especially, put more effort yourself. It may be hard, but life isn't easy.
