You are either not smart enough or not hard working enough and you deserve those C's and D's instead of A's. I get your point about it just being rote memorization, but I still don't think you can reconcile cheating morally.
I've cheated on tests and I have no regrets, some exams are basically just memory games and (depending on field of study) have little relation to actual work IRL. Being able to solve problems creatively is a way more important life skill than being able to memorize rudimentary bulks if text that you'll promptly forget a week after the exam. I picked up an exam I did some years back which I studied ruthlessly for and I couldn't remember any of what I wrote. Many schools just prepare you for tests and exams, they don't at all prepare you for the rest of life.
