It means, learners can go up to a maximum of 20% with their Turnitin percentage. ● • However, the maximum permissible similarity percentage per source should only be 3% and below and anything above will be rejected. Example: you can see the total percentage is shown as 20%. Also, the individual source percentage should be equal to or less than 3% (in the attached sample screenshot, it's all equal to and less than 3%). If your individual source percentage goes beyond 3%, you have to revise your work to bring it down to 3% or less. (In the match overview on the right side pane, when you click on the total percentage value, you can see the individual percentage source) Thus, let's say your total percentage 20%, but if you have more than 3% in any individual source, your assignment will be summarily rejected. 2) Example of proper citation and HRS reference is below.
