Undergraduate / "Albert Einstein got it wrong countless times", George Washington Univ Essay [15]
Dear Suraj
I am a high school English teacher. I came upon your essay accidentally, and then joined the forum so I could write this reply. If you have not yet submitted your essay, DON'T! It was immediately obvious to me that the first three sentences were not written by the same person that the rest of the essay was written by. Then it took me five seconds to find it on the web by googling it. It's going to be just as easy for the admissions officer to figure this out. Believe me, plagiarism will not impress the admissions officer; on the contrary, it will insure that you will not be accepted. Your essay is not bad--if you write the whole thing yourself, you've got a chance. Good luck!
