Therefore, write in your own words, do NOT use Google Translate or Spin, do NOT copy a part or all of a friend’s assessment or pay someone else to do your assessment. It is not just your Turnitin score that counts but whether a staff member feels that this is not your own work that may make us take a long look at your assessment.
