Plagarism in the IB


Lily1

Recommended Posts

A friend of mine recently notified our IBC that he is worried that his paper is too similar to that of a sibling who had taken IB years before. He used his siblings paper to get an idea for a topic. he is worried they will run it through the system and find too many similarities and say he plagiarized.

If you get caught for plagiarism is there a certain percentage that it must be for you to have consequences? i.e <15%

Also, does the IB notify the college you plan on attending that you were caught for plagiarism?
