    I once got an assignment back non graded. Only said on the back:

    There was case a few years back at Edinburgh University, a lot of the students where caught cheating.
    Some of the students where disciplined, the others where expelled.

    It's something you should really think hard about, once you walk down that road there no coming back.

    October 15.

    No idea I was sleeping during the lecture.

    But yeah I started writing it already, just needed to get the ball rolling. Was also wondering if such sites existed for future reference.

    We don't, that's why I wanted to revert to the dark side .

    Kushblow, I have no idea about that. I also would not try it. Nightowl is right though. Some professors will let it slide (maybe)but others will certainly not. They will check your references/sources.

    Much rather begin sharing notes with others in your class. I have like 2GB from business oriented college. Just not much in English, since I didn't even have to try at that.

    Finished 3rd in my class of 22 thanks mainly to those notes.

    @pone

    He had no choice but to let it slide. I had already missed so much school from being elsewhere, that I had to take all exams, written and oral where applicable, full curriculum. About twice the amount the more serious students had to take. I didn't even have to write complete assignments, because no grades mattered. I just did it (for the most part) to prepare for the exams and asked all the teachers to read through/correct/grade them as if I was still eligible for that.

    All joking aside, it isn't that there is some super-mega database somewhere, it is the fact that by the time someone gets through the doctoral level they have at least an additional 5 -7 years of study beyond an undergrad. That includes primary research (original documents) and their own studies. They have also had year after year of assigning similar essays. They have read it, they have worked with it, and they have done their own projects.

    Just in terms of years, picture a 5th grader trying to bullshit a senior in high school... The difference is far more pronounced than that, BTW.

    I don't know of any free ones, except Scandinavian ones, with almost a warezforum like structure. Either pay and share your own.

    Should be noted that many of the people who upload stuff are lazy themselves, so the quality of the paper, even for reference purposes, aren't always that good.
