The main problem was that i put punctuations before and after the reference. I.e. (1). And .(1) I haven't blatantly taken a full piece of text without putting a reference (in the way described before)– BrajkovicMCommented May 15 at 16:59

1That's not really a big problem.– Debora Weber-WulffCommented May 16 at 17:43

What about getting into a PhD program, how will these mistakes be taken?– BrajkovicMCommented May 28 at 12:39

It depends on where and what the program is. Everyone makes mistakes, but we strive to publish only that which is true. And when we mess up, we own up to it. Just apply and see how it goes, but don't start off with "I made a big mistake"....– Debora Weber-WulffCommented May 29 at 13:28

I am trying to apply on a PhD program at the same faculty I graduated. Biomedicine and healthcare. I am an MD. Do you know anything about these programs?– BrajkovicMCommented May 30 at 7:01

A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
Use tags that describe what your question is about, not what it merely relates to. For example almost every question on this site is eventually related to research, but only questions about performing research should be tagged research.
Use tags describing circumstances only if those circumstances are essential to your question. For example, if you have a question about citations that came up during writing a thesis but might as well have arisen during writing a paper, do not tag it with thesis.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. graduate-admissions), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
