Ok, moral dilemma:

Half of the final that I am taking on Thursday has to do with "design patterns". We are supposed to memorize what they look like and what they do. We have been given a list of 12, and 6 of them will be on the test.

My friends are all taking the test early because they have to proctor a test that afternoon. They have offered to tell me what design patterns are actually on the test. I'm tempted... that would tell me which to study intensively in the last hour before the test. It's not quite like getting a list of answers, or even of the other questions, since these are majorly involved things and if I don't have them all memorized anyway, an hour won't cut it. But... it's still a dilemma.

I vote for no. Sure, it's not as bad of a cheat as it would be to get actual answers...but IMO it's still a cheat.

I'm wayyyy overly sensitive about stuff like that, but...

I'm not the moral beacon, I'd take the advantages you are offered in life and be efficient about what you study. There are plenty of times in life you are stuck with an unlucky break... don't refuse the lucky breaks!
