Take the graduate thesis of Xi University of Technology as an example. If the total text overlap percentage is higher than 70% or the highest chapter text overlap percentage is higher than 80% after the preliminary examination results of the thesis are eliminated, the degree applicants are disqualified from applying for the current degree because their thesis is suspected of being fraudulent.
After excluding the published papers, degree applicants whose initial test scores are not higher than 70% of the total text overlap and 80% of the highest chapter text overlap, but whose initial test scores fail to meet the test standards, must revise their papers for not less than two weeks, fill out the Application Form for Re-examination of Postgraduate Dissertation of Xi University of Technology, and apply for a second test of their papers after the supervisor agrees.
