| ok my teacher, a senior english marker said that there have been times when he has come across 10 essays almost exactly word for word. he complained to the marker in charge, and the response he got was "mark for merit"- i.e, if they hit the criteria, give them the mark.
so basically, u will NOT get punished for having the same essay. also, its like impossible to prove who cheated, when more than 1 essay is the same. |
