What should you do if you are tempted to cheat? Select all that apply.

• Talk to your teacher! It is literally their job to help you.

• Give up! You'll never succeed without cheating.

• Try your best without cheating! You can revise later.

If you are helping your friend who has run out of time to catch up on their homework, it’s acceptable to let them copy your answers because that doesn’t count as cheating.
