This honesty-based question tests your character and reveals how you deal with awkward or uncomfortable situations. As a student at Tulane University Medical School, it is essential to adhere to the Code of Academic Conduct. Cheating is not tolerated and is considered unethical.

The university advises reporting alleged cheating violations directly to faculty members and not taking matters into your own hands with the classmate you discovered cheating.
