You Can Pay For Your Homework Online, But Most Likely It Will Suck

from the only-the-worst-for-cheaters dept

In the last few years, one of the biggest issues that teachers and professors have had to deal with is that many students are buying papers off the internet. There are a number of tools, like Turnitin, that try to catch students in the act, but now some are pointing out that, students who buy papers online may get "rewarded" in another way. Most of the papers are just plain bad and won't get the student a particularly good grade. Of course, this was hardly a scientific study. It was just one professor checking out a few different essays available online. However, it still makes you wonder what sort of person would buy a paper online when there's absolutely no way to judge the quality of it? Oh, right, the sort of person who buys a paper online probably is too clueless to recognize that quality might matter.
