Foreign students need to check the duplicate when writing their graduation thesis, mainly using Turnitin. If you don't check the duplicate in advance, international students are likely to be suspected of academic misconduct because of the abnormal data of the unified duplicate check by the school after submission.

In foreign countries, not only copying and quoting other people's original papers will be judged as plagiarism, but also using the papers written by students directly.

Turnitin is used for duplicate checking in foreign universities. After students upload their papers, the website will mark the repetition rate of the papers in five colors and issue a duplicate check report.

Blue means there is no repetition, and green means the repetition rate is within 24%. These two colors are relatively safe.

The repetition rate of yellow is 25% to 49%, orange is 50% to 74%, and red is 75% to 100%. These three colors are more dangerous.

Sometimes the sentences in the report will be marked in purple, indicating that this part of the content is the homework you handed in before, and it is a paper that the school typed too much.

Of course, this is only a judgment sentence, and whether it will be judged as plagiarism in the end depends on the duplicate checking of your whole paper. If the format quoted by students is qualified, even if many original texts are quoted and the repetition rate exceeds 20%, it will be judged as no problem. If you don't quote strictly according to the format, this repetition rate will be very dangerous, and you may even hang up the paper directly.

Some international students may have questions: I clearly quoted according to the format, why should I check it again or fail? Perhaps your academic writing ability needs to be improved, and you are not good at quoting, summarizing and explaining.
