I've always been the student that finishes assignments a little quicker than others. It's not that anyone is dumber than me, but it's just that our brains work differently. There's no problem with that. However, there is a problem when another student in a lab group complains that I'm getting too ahead in the lab report while everyone else is joking around.

It is not my job to slow down for everyone else because they don't want to pay attention to the assignment that we are currently doing. If I'm focused on the work and you need help, then I have no problem helping you, but I'm not going to sit and wait for you to finish having fun to finish my assignment.

WE ARE ADULTS. If you can't time-manage and utilize your peers to help you on their time instead of your own, then you need to grow up. It is truly not my job to dumb myself down for you.

Also, college is literally the worst place to get caught cheating, so NO, I will not let you copy my work. You think I'm going to ruin my future so that you can succeed in this class? Heck no.

I have no problem with helping another student in need, but at this age, I would never even consider letting anyone cheat/copy me. So what if that makes me a know-it-all or teacher's pet or anything of that nature?

I'm not against helping or sharing notes at all. I understand that sometimes a professor just doesn't explain something well enough for all the students. But at the end of the day, we both have the exact same resources, and I will never take pressure or responsibility for anyone's grades but my own.
