Has anyone ever used a site like this before? They write a term paper for you, on any subject that you need.

turnitin.com This is the website my school uses to combat palaguerism (sp). The run all papers through this sight and it WILL catch you. Whether you wrote a paper for a previous class or if you bought it online. Don't think for ne minute that this website would write a fresh paper just for you! They have sold it to others! Odds are it's in turn it in's database.
Others are so right! We have to get used to the hard work, cause there is surely no way around it, not if you want nursing to be your career~

I would NEVER use a site like this and I truly do hope that you don't. Stay away from sites like this and go to your school's writing lab if you have problem's writing.

Nope. I would never so such a thing because it's a form of academic dishonesty, which is wrong. Companies like that aren't going to look out for you. They will take your money and give you a paper they gave to someone else. It will be flagged if the teacher submits it to a database to catch these types of things. Most teachers have been in this for a long time, and have seen it all. Trust me, they know when you turn in something that you didn't write. It's so not worth it. Please don't even go there...

:nono:This counts as cheating and you WILL get caught. Most nursing schools take plagiarism very seriously and you can even get kicked out on your "first offense." It's not worth it so don't do it!

I would never ever use a site like that. Do your own work, your professor will know you cheated and you could be kicked out of your program. If you want to be a nurse that bad you will do your own work and not let someone else do it for you.

I didn't know that this was considered a bad thing. I guess I'll have to write the term paper on my own. But I have NEVER done good on a term paper before in my life. The highest grade I ever got was a C-. There is always something wrong with it.

If there is always something wrong with your papers then go to a lecturer/teacher/marker and get help. Read the feedback on your previous work to find out your weaknesses. My weakness was that i made long sentances and i lost marks on this frequently. So i read the feedback and made sure that on the next essay/assignment that i didnt use massive sentances.
Put a bit more time and effort into the papers, research the topic thoroughly, dont leave it to the last minute and maybe get a friend/collegue/class mate to read it through when you are finished to make sure that it makes sense and offer advice on how to improve the paper. Ive frequently given a paper to a friend to read and she has noticed huge spelling mistakes or something that doesnt make sense.
Didnt you have any sort of lesson on plagerism (using others work as your own)? My Uni is so hot on this right now, literally every single assignment brief we get has a paragraph about plagerism/what it is and how they detect it.
I didn't know this would be considered plagirism. I thought the website would give you a paper with the proper references..the only thing is that you had someone else do the assignment for you. There are even people who you can charge to write your paper for you. I didn't know this would get me kicked out of school. I don't want that to happen

1. the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work.
2. something used and represented in this manner.
If they write a term paper for you and you pass it off as your own it is plagiarism.
Ohh, I forgot to add something.
Most high school and college professors scan in essays/term papers to several different paper checking web services.
Then the service will check it against papers already in their database. If it has been used before it will pop up and you are busted.
