    I could see this happening in an course pertaining to the arts, but never in a science class.

    We turn in our reports in to a site that checks for plagiarism. Apparently the ******* didn't change his paper enough because the system reported a 66% similarity.

    Nah, we basically just changed the construction of the sentences. Content was 100% the same and the grade was supposed to be 100% on content.

    At the end of the day you still cheated.
    If you get caught and the other guy doesn't? Well that sucks, but you knew that risk coming into it.

    You let him cheat, because one day, you will want to cheat off him.

    Thats how it works. Good friends.

    I think it's only fair that you defriend your (ex)friend on facebook and then kill him.

    Ignore all these high horse riders. It's a freshman science lab report--copying each other's stuff is pretty much prescribed in the syllabus.

    You're lucky. A small or competitive enough private college you'd be out on your ass. Find out what you really want to do and put all your time and energy into getting it. You will regret every single minute you wasted while in college, or your twenties.

    I remember in high school, we all used to copy each other. I think I got A's all year without doing much work. Some of the others got C's and B's.
