An update to my plagiarizing situation (read initial post)

For reference my post from yesterday. https://www.reddit.com/r/UofT/s/chXX4zMuih

So I just got off from my meeting with Dr. Patterson regarding my BCH210 draft and how it overlapped with another person's draft. I was presented with both my work and the other unknown person's work and let me say, I was genuinely surprised by the similarity it had with mine, the order of the ideas presented was similar, the wording was only slightly changed. I was shocked.

But the meeting was more informal than I expected. I explained to Dr. Patterson about the fact that I've worked on this assignment myself, and only myself, because I usually work in my room or in the Robarts commons (I tend to do work myself), and I don't know much about the other people taking this course. Not even during tutorials have I confronted other bch210 students about this.

She was, nicer than I expected the overall meeting to be, and what she said was mostly about being careful of my work being open in public and not to share the work with anyone else. I am to continue working on the final assignment using the feedback that I received and it shouldn't escalate to a more serious level since this draft is only worth 3% of the final grade.

So this is nothing serious tbh, I was only genuinely surprised by the similarity the other paper had with mine, but other than that, just continue working on the final.

If you got any more questions just leave a comment and I'll see if I can answer.

Gotta get back to preparing for psl300 test today lol
