I'm in community college and I've cheated through Calc 1 with maybe a B and I'm halfway through Calc 2 still cheating. I've been struggling with a C but now it's dipping down into a D and I'm at a loss of what to do.

Since the entire class has been online (corona-virus & low paid professors), I've just been brute-forcing my homework and quizzes, and for tests I've been using Wolfram Alpha in creative ways to solve problems. The issue is I've reached the point in the class where problems are becoming so abstract I can't figure out how to input/output them into wolfram alpha anymore.

For example, I've encountered problems where you are expected to solve problems using the Trapezoid Rule. Easy enough to do with Wolfram Alpha, but then it expects me to calculate the expected error with the Trapezoid Rule and I'm completely stumped.

I'm worried that I might be fucked and beginning to either fail or at least slipping a lot. Is it possible for me to still pass and get a decent grade or am I screwed? Basically I barely know what I'm doing and have nothing memorized. Looking for solutions and considerations. Details and Specifics greatly appreciated.

Don't know if I'm the first person to employ such a strategy to pass Calc classes.
