In " Studies Find More Students Cheating , With High Achievers No Exception " by Richard Perez Pena , the author reveals that in the last year or so there is much cheating goin on inmcompetitive schools .The Cheating could be beacuse of behavior and attitudes . Higher students tend to do the same as their peers .The author says ,"...there is evidence that the problem has worsened over the last few decades . "Cheating now a days seem to become easier to do.This article has quotes from experts , parents , and school officals to show or prove that cheating has worsened over the years in top schools .One quote that stood out to me is ," Large scale cheating has been uncovered the last year at some of the nation's most competitive schools...". This quote shows that even students that has great grades and participation are even cheating .I believe that cheating is a big deal . Students study and try their hardest to receive the grades they great ,and are just coping what they do . So they are just taking their peers credit . Unfair right ? Why do people cheat ? Is it easier than just to study ? Are you taking what you are cheating off of ? Think next time you cheat .

  1. Good but a bit short. Try to add more to the opinion section. Do you think that there is too much pressure put on students? Also remember to spellcheck and proofread. 80
