So I signed up for Chegg in September, a lot of my friends used it. My professor prescribed a text book with no memos and thought it would be handy.(To be fair to the professor he did make notes and tutorials.) But adapting to distance learning was tough.
It had been a really rough few weeks. My dad was suicidal alcoholic after he lost a shit ton of money yoloing puts on the stock market.I had a 2nd year Maths exam that consisted of 2 parts at the end of September. A written section and a multiple choice section. I battled through the written section and submitted it. I wrote a declaration on it that I would not cheat. When I was doing the multiple choice section a question came up that I had answered before. The timer was running down and I couldn't recall the answer. Then in a monumental error of judgement I cheated. I Google'd the question and the answer came up on Chegg and I clicked and viewed it.
The University is doing a big investigation now with all "solutions sites'. I am confident that I am not guilty of any other infraction but should my instructor submit that particular question to Chegg's Honesty Department. It will be time stamped that I visited that url to that question during an exam.
So I have until tomorrow to preemptively admit to committing academic dishonesty. Doing so will mean they will investigate, give me zero for the exam and decide on a mark for me for the course. They say there will be serious mittigation of punishment if we come forward but do not go so far as to say whether you will face sanction or not.
I feel sick to my stomach and I am unable to concentrate on my existing work. I have an email in my drafts admitting to wrong doing but I haven't yet sent it. I am not sure how understanding my professor will be.
So yeah I did something really bad and I can't talk to my family about it. Should I send this email, should I not? Help!
PS: don't make the mistake I did. Delete /unsubscribe that shit now.
