Plagiarizing the tests

Post by Justin Ross » Tue Oct 13, 2015 9:47 pm

What are the consequences of plagiarizing a college admissions essay and getting caught? I was just wondering what would happen if a college admission officer notices that two essays that he has read are very similar, even exactly the same.

Really confused. Is your question what would the consequences be if someone was caught plagiarizing a college admissions essay and later applied to law school? Or is it what would happen to a college student how was caught?

You copy them from one of those "50 personal statements that got their authors accepted to Harvard" books.

Don't plagiarize. If you're thinking about it, stop.

Thanks for the suggestions.
And sorry for posting in the wrong board. I really had no idea that my question would be so dumb.
