plagiarism

Read a random definition: plaideur

A quick definition of plagiarism:

Plagiarism is when you take someone else's work and pretend it's your own. It's not allowed because it's not fair to the person who did the work. If you get caught, you might get in trouble at school or work. Sometimes it can even be against the law if you copy something that's protected by copyright. To avoid plagiarism, you should always give credit to the person who did the work by using quotes or citations. There are tools you can use to check if your work has plagiarism.

A more thorough explanation:

Plagiarism is when someone takes someone else's work and presents it as their own. This is not allowed in most schools and workplaces because it is considered dishonest and unethical. It can result in disciplinary action, such as failing a class or losing a job. Plagiarism can also be illegal if it violates copyright, patent, or trademark laws.

For example, if a student copies and pastes a paragraph from a website into their essay without giving credit to the original author, that is plagiarism. Or if a writer publishes a book that is very similar to another author's book without permission, that is also plagiarism.

To avoid plagiarism, it is important to always give credit to the original author by using quotes or citations. There are many free online tools that can check for plagiarism to make sure your work is original.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
