推荐信采用了部分模板或者范文的wording, 会有关系吗？

我发现自己的情况跟某些范文中写的差不多，而且范文用的措辞感觉也很好，于是就采用了部分语句、甚至是段落，但是不知道这样的情况是不是不好？会不会被认为是抄袭，而导致我整个application也废掉？

万分感谢。

说错了，应该是Essay. 大家碰到过类似的情况吗？

Plagiarism is a serious offense. I hope you did not copy entire paragraph word to word. US school takes plagiarism seriously and will have you kicked out of school even if you get in.

嗯，同意LS，我也听说了。美国佬有这个传统的，不管是GMAT作文还是申请文书~

我个人觉得千万别这么做，你承担不起后果的。

Never copy...

BTW, you could use some innovative formats. Take the conell biographical essat for example. You could also use Chinese proverbes to began your story as some model essays do, but you should absolutely construct your essay by your self ideas.
