In an attempt to test the Aristotelian method discussed in Nicomachean Ethics, I have chosen to discuss the dilemma of cheating. I have chosen this topic in an attempt to be as impartial as possible while discussing at and I have a thorough knowledge of the subject taking part in and witnessing it. Throughout the paper, I will not attempt to force my own views of the subject into this paper, but rather analyze the idea using Aristotles method. Aristotle did not guarantee that his method is fool proof and it might be discovered that he in fact leads people to the wrong conclusions about certain dilemmas.
