The main reason is that examination is believed to be the best measure of ones intellectual capacity; hence students cheat to prove it to others.

Also, if you are in an environment where everybody's cheating and teachers are indifferent, you kind of have to in order not to stay behind.

What are the requirements to get into Auburn University?

Couldn't find the exact minimum requirement but Auburn had a listing of their overexertion averages were 24.3 on the ACT (composite score) and 1122 on the SAT I. A little trick someone taught me when I was applying to colleges was, transfer students seem to have a much easier time being accepted than others. So if you can't meet the minimums required to attend your "dream" school maybe one could consider starting somewhere else and transferring at a later date. Not that I'm telling you how to go about making such an important decision, but it's one more piece of information to consider along the way.

According to The Princeton Review, the middle 50%* of students scored in the following ranges on the ACTs:

ACT Scores

Composite......23 - 29

Math..............22 - 28

English...........24 - 30

Writing...........22 - 27

Average HS GPA: 3.69

* This indicates 25% of incoming freshman scored below the published range in one or more areas, while the top 25% scored above the published range. Auburn uses a comparative, rather than fixed-score, method to evaluate freshman applications.

How many years would it take to earn an associates and bachelors and masters and professional doctorial degree?

Well, you don't need to earn a two-year associates degree before earning a bachelors. You can start with a four-year bachelors degree. The master's is typically another two to three years and a PhD is another two to three years. Programs differ, as do schools and personal schedules, so completing all degrees can take from 7-10 years. Typical time frames and requirements: Associate's Degree - Two years full-time - Usually requires about 60 credit hours. Bachelor's Degree - Four years full-time - Usually requires about 140 credit hours. An Associate's Degree is not required to start a Bachelor's Degree. Master's Degree - One to two years - Usually requires at least 30 credit hours of graduate level courses. Doctorate's Degree - Two to three years - Usually requires between 80 and 90 hours. Not all Doctorate programs require a Master's Degree first. Example, a law degree is a Doctorate, but the majority of students enter law school directly from Undergrad. An attorney can then earn a Master's Degree later.
