Hello,
I am currently applying this cycle to several md schools. I had a plagiarism issue during my junior year of undergrad. I was given a take home exam in a bio class and used a source to answer one of the questions from the internet but didn't think it was necessary to cite it since it was an exam. Any ways... I was reported to academic integrity office and I received a 0 only on the question that was of question and still managed to pull off an A in the course. As I complete my application, I am uncertain on how to describe this situation and wondering if this would really hurt my application. I have a 3.6 gpa and mcat is still pending. also have 3000 hours of ER tech experience and a few published ortho papers. Please give me some advice or feedback!
