Is it considered plagiarism if our supplemental essay for UCSF is nearly the same one we use for a supplemental essay at another school?

1. The definition of plagiarize (according to Merriam-Webster) is "to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own; use (another's production) without crediting the source."

2. Are the essay question/prompts so similar that you can use the same answer? Hmmm....

I did! I wished that you would have as few distractions as possible while you were studying for finals.
