your credentials look good but I hope this isn't what you wrote in your IA description essay 😵
"Here’s the sticky part: Institutional action-copied a few sentences from lab manual procedure in my pre lab report (2nd week of school year) for organic chem lab, got a written warning, nothing else. I did get a zero on the lab report, which meant I had to get near perfect on every subsequent lab report for an A, which was not easy, but I managed to pull it off by a few % points. Tbh, it was blown way out of proportion, the course coordinator has no life except preying on kids and wanting them to fail. In my class alone (~20 kids), she removed 10, including myself, and got us all in trouble for copying a few sentences from the procedure and saying it’s plagiarism. Imagine how many others got the same thing in the dozens of other lab section. Nonetheless, I explained it, took responsibility, and said what I learned and how I grew in the space they give us to write abt it."

Gotta let go of that righteous indignation if you use this incident in any secondary essays!

Hahaha lol, obv not. Some could call it venting what I typed out. I didn’t even mention that she’s crazy and removed half the population. It was much more professional 😂
