I need opinions.........................Gingie

I got an application for the National Honor Society, which is a very BIG thing at my school. If you get one of these applications you quallify for a 1,000 dollar scholarship, but before I can turn my application in you have to write an essay about this:

Most of today's teenagers think therre is nothing wrong with copyuing another student's homework - that this is not "cheating". In 100 wors or less, sidcuss your views on this subject.

Well, I've written my paper and I need some advice and opinions would help me out. Here is my essay, and be honest and tell me what you think and what I could do to improve it to make this essay better.

Unlike most teenagers today, I totally disagree with copying another classmates homework. Most of my fellow classmates think that copying someone elses homework isn't cheating, but it is! In my opinion it's just an easy way out of doing your homework, teaching you nothing! Therefore when its KATS time they don't know what they are doing also leaving then far behind in class. This is why I think that is cheating when you are copying someone else's homework.

Okay... there it is...please help me out..this is VERY important to me! Thanks... *hugs n love* Gingie

You're on the right track but I think you need to give some examples of how you are unlike most teenagers in regards to cheating. And then why you think this and then what is your conclusion. I assume this is just your rough draft-so just get all your ideas down on paper and then edit. IsisKat

Date: 1/28/2004 10:52:00 AM  From Authorid: 35720    Unlike most teenagers today, I entirely disagree with copying another classmate's homework. Most of my fellow classmates think that copying someone else's homework isn't cheating, but personally, I believe it is. In my opinion, it is just an easy way out of doing your homework, teaching you nothing. Therefore, when it's time for the KATS assessments, they are unsure of what they are doing. Students who copy homework also tend to suffer because they lag behind in class. Copying another student's homework should definently be considered cheating.  
Date: 1/28/2004 10:52:00 AM  From Authorid: 35720    Congratulations on the National Honor Society nomination!   
Date: 1/28/2004 11:39:00 AM  From Authorid: 37449    Maybe you could use this.. They are only CHEATING themselves. Because when it is time for a big test, they can't copy someone's answers (speaced out etc). When are at univeristy, they cannot copy answers.. get thorwn out.. etc.. but Congrats and good luck  
Date: 1/28/2004 11:45:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 54060    Thanks everyone I will defentally use ur ideas! (hugs)  
Date: 1/28/2004 2:24:00 PM  From Authorid: 5252    my only suggesstion, would be to take out all of the contractions (i.e. isn't) and insted of KATS, spell it out, it looks better!  
Date: 1/28/2004 3:23:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 54060    Thanks u guys..I'll post again when I find out the news! (hugs)  
Date: 1/28/2004 10:49:00 PM  From Authorid: 62456    rika, you did a great job editing.Flows well,,IsisKat  
Date: 1/29/2004 7:26:00 AM  From Authorid: 60792    um hmm its like all the persons work has gone down the drain because its been stolen? No effort. Um gives kids the conclusion (better word there?) that life is easy and things are handed to them. Tells them that you don't have to work to get things? sorry  
Date: 1/29/2004 10:57:00 AM  From Authorid: 52489    Okay, I used to be an English teacher, so I'm going to critique your paper. What follows is the corrected form: Unlike most teenagers today, I totally disagree with copying a classmate's homework. Most of my fellow classmates think that copying someone else's work isn't cheating, but it is! In my opinion, it's just an easy way out of doing your homework, teaching you nothing! Therefore, when its KATS [No idea what this is], time they don't know what they are doing! This also leaves them farther behind in class. Copying someone else's work shortchanges your own potential!

Date: 1/30/2004 3:28:00 PM  From Authorid: 40979    I think your essay sounds really nice , but what is KATS ? and also , an opening statment would be nice and a conclusion to finalize your essay :-) Nice job so far though !Good luck .  
Date: 1/30/2004 8:02:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 54060    thanks..The KATS in kentucky is the end of the year test that all the students take...its mainly for the state to know how good the teachers do at teaching us
