The think I cheated

I can't tell you how hard it is emotionally where I am at the moment.

I am studying my dream course at the moment and I worked so hard on my last essay that I was really proud of it when I sent it off.

I just got a phone call from my lecturer that she is concerned with my academic integrity! I had to send it in via email so she can check it with one of those academic gadgets (not sure what it is called).

I am stressing really bad, even though I have a chance to resubmit if she thinks it's wrong.

:(

Consider this the compliment of all compliments, and think of the grade you will be receiving when they realise they were wrong. well done:bow:.

there is an internet site that can check for plagerism. that's probably what she's talking about.

I had to turn in one of my papers to turnitin.com where the site would analyze the paper against whatever is out there and say what percentage of the paper seem to be word for word based on other works. However, my professor said it was no big deal because there was a lot of things that could affect that percentage, such as repeating "the city of xxxxx" because of the city's website having that phrase. Hopefully there is nothing to worry about for you. Good luck.

Do you think you cheated? To avoid plagerism use quotation marks and at the end of the report site your sources.
