Hypothetically speaking, can you lie about your EC's, shadowing, and research?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I'm sure that people embellish all the time, and some do lie. My impression is that people try to overstate what they did in research. You can tell that when you ask them about their reserach.


A colleague of mine actually caught someone in a lie during an interview once.

It was amazing to see they applicant try to physcially become smaller and smaller.

Guess who got rejected?

But if you write down that you worked at the soup kitchen five Thansgivings in a row, we don't have the time to check that out.
How much can you overstate your research in 700 characters lol
