Unicheck Originality Scores

After a submission has been processed, a report is generated detailing the percentage of text in the submitted paper that matches existing sources. The report also shows the suspected sources of each section of the submitted paper that returns a match. You can omit matching sources from the report and process it again. This is useful if the paper is a continuation of a previously submitted work by the same student.

The Legend represents 4 different color marks that can be displayed in an Unicheck report.
