How To Copy And Paste Article For Free?

What will happen if i just copy and paste an article for the essay i have to write for college?

  • i have to write an essay about illegal immigration and i was thinking to just copy and paste an article I've read. does the professor check if i have done that? what will happen?

  • Answer:

    We have software that we paste your essay into and it searches the web for matches. It then tells us what percentage of your paper was found as an exact match online. Want to see how it works? Take any one sentence of your essay and paste it into Google with quotation marks. Did you get caught? At every college I've attended and taught at, doing what you propose would result in immediate dismissal from the college (not just the class) for academic dishonesty. You might get an F in a class for plagiarizing a little in a paper - plagiarizing the whole paper is enough to toss you out. We'd probably not wait until the end of the semester either - you'd fail every class you're in now and be dismissed. You're better off not turning in anything than taking a chance like this. It's just not worth it.

Plagiarism will get you a failing grade for the paper, probably the class, and the professor has the right to have you expelled permanently from the college. Today we use automated programs to check plagiarism...quick, simple and very accurate. Don't risk your college career on doing something stupid that will remain on your permanent record forever...and will be sent to employers. (psychology professor)

At my school they kick you out if they catch you plagiarizing. Also, of note, the professors have programs that search for plagiarism so I wouldn't count on not getting caught.

depending on your school you will probably at least fail if not get kicked out if you are caught

There are a number of ways for the school to find out if a student is using someone else's work, and the consequences of being caught could be dire (we're talking expulsion, in many cases). It's just not worth it. You would be better off doing the best you can and taking the grade that you are given. Worst case scenario, you receive a lower letter grade, but compare that with the worst case scenario if you cheat.
