Conscience and Moral Judgemenet

A friend of yours, who is also a popular and well-known student, boasts to you that he/she has managed to steal a copy of the semester science exam. He/she is prepared to sell it to anyone for $10.00. This test has a 50% weighting on the overall result. What do you do? Would you buy a copy for yourself? Would you report the incident?

I would report this to the teachers for this incident. This is a terrible thing to do, this is cheating and this is a bad decision to do. The student is trying to get quick cash by making people buy the cheat sheet for them to get good grades, and when there is another exam anyone who bought the sheet with answers on it will not learn anything so they will get bad grades.
