it a few times, you will appreciate this tool, as it will assist you in
improving quality and content, as well as avoid plagiarism. Your goal is to
keep direct quotations to a minimum and to make sure that you do not just cut
and paste material. Ensure that all your references are cited.A report with a
similarity index less than 25% is acceptable for undergraduate level
work.
