Do you think professors know when you are totally pulling something out of your a$$
 The paper I am writing is seriously painful to write and it is utter BS

As long as it sounds professional they are used to reading BS. I believe it's what most students write.

Yes, grad.
If people really try, I'll let BS slide. It REALLY bothers me when people copy text and count it as their own. If I can cut and paste a sentence into google and see it on another site or paper, the paper is an automatic F.
You'd be amazed though at how many grad students can't write at all...I'm thankful to read any paper that is coherent.

I truly believe that not all college professors read every paper that is written and handed in to them. I know some of mine didn't and I am out of school 15 years already.

I think it depends on how smart the professor is. I know I had a few that wouldn't have known.

No it's definetely all mine. It's an education class and this project was not my favorite and now I am writing a reflection. You don't teach education classes do you??

Yes! I'm getting 29 5-7 page papers from my students tomorrow. . . I'm hoping for a low BS percentage.

Re: Do you think professors know when you are totally pulling something out of your a$$
my problem is I LOVE writing and I usually ramble on and on and on 
but most of it is good rambling (I think  )
and many times Professors would give me contradicting feedback 
either didnt elaborate enough (when I tried so hard to NOT ramble on)
and way too long of an answer when I was myself and elaborated to my heart's content. 
Heck, many professors BS themselves too (no offense )
a few times I had to ask them to explain their "comments" which either made no sense or contradicted something they said on another page.
some students are more observant than some professors 
all said in good fun, no offense to anyone.
I'll write your paper, Im a dork that loves writing  
ETA: Doing my thesis was PURE TORTURE because the writing has to be cold/statement/facts. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO not my style of writing. I was bursting to write my thoughts and opinions.
