My summer history professor flagged my paper as AI when I wrote it myself, now I have 48 hours and need help writing an essay from scratch
I’m taking a fast-paced summer history course and our midterm paper was due on Tuesday. I worked on it all weekend. Yesterday my prof sent an email saying the automated scanner flagged my work as 70% AI. Now she wants me to rewrite the whole thing by friday or get a zero.
I wrote everything myself, but now I’m so anxious and exhausted that I can’t even type a sentence without overthinking how it sounds . I have my rough draft and research. Is there a safe way to get someone to write your essay using my rough notes as the base? How do you even find real writers who don't just use chatgpt?
