Have you ever plagiarized a paper for school?

NO!!!!!!!

Partly once. My Sr. English teacher assigned a paper due the day after the BIG opera production, and one guy and I were affected. We asked him to postpone the paper for a week; he said no because he needed time to read them before classes ended (he had 2 weeks). So we asked for an extension. He said no. So I copied a few paragraphs I found that fit the topic. I never felt bad about it. The other guy just didn't turn one in. The teacher said "I'm giving you an F," and the guy said "I've already been accepted to college -- and I called them and told them about this, and they said not to worry." The class cheered. :)

Did I mention the paper was assigned one week before it was due, and the teacher knew already that the other guy and I were tied up -- 2 dress rehearsals, 4 performances. Teach said he wanted one more grade. Forget that 3 kids in the class (this guy was one) had 800's on the Verbal SAT.

Very unreasonable teacher.

That's what we thought. :) All my friends knew I was doing it -- one of them found the article that I used lol.

No. I was however accused of it once. As it turns out, I am just a very good writer and really really smart.

I am a very good writer I never felt that I needed to.

There's no point .. I'm not going to learn anything or further develop my own skills so I never have. :3

Never needed to......But this political Person plagiarises his speeches for past politicians!

I really hate plagiarism.

I never had a teacher that I thought was that dumb that I would have tried that.

"Not for school but for a speech during a presidential run I once did!"

In grade 4, we were writing a report on various animals. I was writing on elephant seals. I went through the source and very closely paraphrased it sentence by sentence. I didn't think that was plagiarism, since it WAS my own words, but I got into trouble.
