In response to concerns about cheating expressed in regards to another
question masshour said (first two paragraphs quote comments made by
others):

************
"I find it disturbing that someone who is 
presumably a medical student is unwilling to make the effort 
him/herself to learn these things"(surgeon-ga) 
 
"Before answering these questions, please give some thought to whether
or not you would want your loved ones treated by this person after 
he/she cheats his/her way to a medical degree"(trillium-ga)  
 
So tell me how he/she going to pass other exams?
*******

There are a number of possibilities.

1) It may not be necessary to pass every exam to pass the course or
program. It all depends on how the exams and assignments are weighted.

2) The poster may be paying for answers only in areas of weakness and
may be able to pass other exams without cheating.

3) These may be past exam questions that are repeated on
timed/in-class exams. The poster memorizes the answers and does well
on the exam regardless of whether or not he/she understands the
material.

4) Not having to waste time doing these assignments him/her-self, the
poster may have more spare time, which he/she uses to actually study
for other exams.

Of course all of this is irrelevent. If cheating is taking place then
people are being hurt regardless of whether or not this cheating
eventually leads to a medical license (though that would be the worst
case scenario). High grades earned dishonestly can pull up the curve
for other students and cost deserving students scholarships and other
competitive privileges.

And what's worse, the cheating is subsidized financially by
universities. They contract with Google and pay Google money and
Google pays lip service to not promoting cheating, but make no real
attempts to stop it.

huh what a nice movie?
