Academic Misconduct/Plagiarism

[N1ghtW1ng]

Ah no @bob78 that sucks. Are you in QLD? Pretty much everywhere has been closed down (schools, my uni lecturers and tutors cancelled today too) so hopefully they'll put it for the next closest time.

Hi All,

I have been thinking this for a while but not sure I should do this.I thought of ringing the law society and asking whether I will have to have to worry about my future admission suitability.I have asked a professor about this he said not to worry too much but I still want to be sure if there is something more to it. Any thoughts and suggestions or anyone who has a little bit of information regarding this or someone who has gone thru this.It will be much appreciated as its really concerning me and my studies.

Hey @bob78 

Calling the law society sounds like a good idea. You could always call other universities as well to see if that is something that will affect their admissions decisions? Hope you hear back soon!

Don't worry..next time  you check your assignment by using Plagiarism  Checker to avoid duplicate content..

I think I am answering late but still, it may help some other students.

Plagiarism is a serious concern if you paraphrase the content, you need to cite the source from where you copied. Paraphrasing is another type of plagiarism that is not good especially for assignments. However, it's better to use a Plagiarism Checker to find any copied/paraphrased content and some tools also provide the option of citation at the same platform.  

This way, you can find the text that is plagiarized and easily cite the source to avoid any consequence.
