[General Question] GradPilot AI detection is capping my SOP score, what worked for you?
My original SOP was AI-assisted, so I understand why GradPilot/Pangram flagged it. I used the review mainly for feedback, then rewrote a paragraph myself in my own voice.
Weirdly, Pangram’s site first gave it ~50% AI, then after I rewrote the flagged section to sound more natural, it went to 100%.
My issue is that GradPilot apparently caps the Foundation & Focus score when AI is detected, and I actually want to see that score properly before trying to get it reviewed by someone else.
I’m not trying to “beat” the detector i just don’t want to throw away a flow/story I really like because a couple students and alumni have read it and they seem to like it
For people who used GradPilot/Pangram: what actually worked? Did you keep the same structure and rewrite everything from scratch, or just ignore the detector and focus on the SOP itself?
PS: this is in no way a critique of either applications, i find them quite useful infact but i might be missing a feature or something i can turn on but not that i can see so forgive me if the question is silly :)
