<p>Good grief, you still don’t get it?</p>
<p>No now let this stupid thread die!</p>
<p>worried135, The only thread or posts you’ve created under this user name are on this issue ONLY. If you changed your user name to post this, then I personally believe you are legit. On the other hand, if your only posts are on this singular issue then I think you’re a ■■■■■…</p>
<p>worried135 I know that whatever I or the countless number of people say to you, you aren’t going to come clean with NU based on your constant persistence to not admit your wrongs…
But just remember that you’re going to get it back some day, and even if you don’t get caught committing this “crime,” the guilt that you cheated into NU and the fact that if you didn’t lie about your ECs, you might not have gotten in is going to stay with you forever.</p>
<p>///and even if you don’t get caught committing this “crime,” the guilt that you cheated into NU and the fact that if you didn’t lie about your ECs, you might not have gotten in is going to stay with you forever./// </p>
<p>some people never feel that guilt. if you know people like that you would be wise to stay away from them.</p>
<p>lol guilt? if he/she felt any guilt, this thread would not exist…</p>
<p>i also find it so blasphemic when amoral people think they know morality and just say that everyone is doing it, so it’s ok to do it…errr, well i’m not, so its everyone-minus-1 atleast…</p>
<p>lies add build up, i’ve seen it happen. the fact that such a big one did such a big thing for you (getting into NU) will only blow your ego and confidence out of proportion. and then you will try to do it again, maybe with a journal article or paper, you might be successful and then maybe with the next one too, but eventually you will get caught…</p>
<p>read the article on the bell labs physicist who nearly plagiarized his way into a Nobel Prize…almost</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I doubt there are credible examples of penalties in cases where the extent of the misrepresentation was minor exaggeration in a few lines of material filled out by applicants. This is in part because the recipient can elect to ignore anything unverifiable, give it reduced weight, or try to check it. For things that involve third parties, such as forgery of letters and transcripts, or plagiarism of others’ published work, the chances of a problem (if discovered) are higher.</p>
<p>Does anyone else think this sweeping generalization is a straw man argument with no other purpose than incurring discourse?</p>
<p>This thread makes me lol. The kid is never going to be caught and as hunt wisely noticed this kid was most likely an underclassman/junior due to his random checking(if this were for real he’d be on this every second). </p>
<p>I commend you worried1, your badassness earned you admission. Winner. Period</p>
<p>Well, at least you’ll feel right at home once you land on Wall Street.</p>
<p>Even if you won’t get caught, do you feel good knowing that you had to cheat to get into Northwestern? Thousands of people worked hard to get in on their own merits, and you just made up stuff to get in.</p>
<p>^ Oh boo hoo, life is short and you need to do the best for yourself, As A Day To Remember says " I do what I want so everyone’s always judging me, not afraid of anything I got the whole world in front of me!"</p>
<p>Rock on OP</p>
<p>I hope you can’t sleep at night and your conscience haunts you for the rest of your life. And I hope you get caught and that your career is ruined, and your husband/wife divorces you because of it and gets full custody of your kids and the house and all the money so you end up and unemployed and homeless alcoholic.
I got rejected from my dream school (not Northwestern), and the thought that some of the people who got in might be dumbass liars like you just makes me so angry.</p>
<p>^
Reminds me of an Eminem song.</p>
<p>"I loved you Slim, we could have been together
Think about it, you ruined it now</p>
<p>I hope you can’t sleep and you dream about it
And when you dream, I hope you can’t sleep
And you scream about it
I hope your conscious eats at you
And you can’t breathe without me"</p>
<p>^^ Why would they be checking the authenticity of his App AFTER college?? LOL</p>
<p>^ It happens. There was some story just recently about a Harvard graduate who lied on his app.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Then-Senator Joe Biden’s 1980’s presidential campaign crashed to an end when it came to light that he’d had a plaigiarism problem in his school days. The school wasn’t checking in this case, but the press was. </p>
<p>The point is, when you have something to hide, you have to hope that it stays hidden forever, from everyone.</p>
<p>What is kind of interesting is that many of the posters who are slaming OP are the Moms and Dads of the user names. I really thing Moms and Dads don’t belong on threads like this. There is a parent thread and these types are probably the helicopter parents that are steaming that OP might have taken their child’s spot.
OP, what is done is done. Let go of this now, go to college and play it straight so you don’t have to worry about the future. I still think what you fudged on your app. is small potatoes and should be forgotten.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Neither the press nor the school were checking. The rival presidential campaign of Mike Dukakis sent video “attack tapes” to the press, showing that Biden was using Neil Kinnock’s material in his campaign speeches. At that point the press began hunting for more material in Biden’s academic background. The school downplayed the plagiarism.</p>
<p>It is public relations suicide for a university to develop a reputation for investigating its applicants after admission, or for rescinding degrees over exaggeration of secondary, non-academic credentials (routine extracurricular activities and such) that could have been verified or disregarded at the time of admission.</p>
<p>The 1987-8 disclosures didn’t stop Biden from running again or becoming Vice President.</p>
<p>Azndarkvader, enough of your bragging. “Anyways” isn’t a real word.</p>
