<p>I just got academic dishonesty and am a sophomore in high school. We had a poetry project and I needed an analysis/paraphrase of poem and I told my friend to do it. My friend finished my title and what I thought was a paraphrase/analysis from him. He had this on the document . He never told me it was from a website. He only told me after he had done when I saw him in the bathroom " hey I finished some of your project you wanted me to do but some teachers were in the back so I did not finish most of it" so I trusted him and just copied and pasted what he had and sorta finished it myself. Me thinking he had done it himself I turned in my project and now a few days later am now charged / have academic dishonesty. </p>
<p>Is there anyway I could get out of this?
Would it help if I told them this is what really happened ? </p>
<p>I had dreams of becoming a politician/go into law school. Should I change my plans? </p>
<p>My second plan was to go to med school and become a cardiac surgeon or pediatrician while being a personal trainer as my second job to make a few more bucks to pay for med school and as a job. Should I follow this path? </p>
<p>Have any of you had academic dishonesty? If so how did you deal with it and how are you doing now. And how did it effect you and your future?</p>
