How accurate is AI in rating?

Greetings :) I am sorry if this was asked multiple times before but I'm genuinely confused.

So I'm supposed to have my ILETS exam in September, and been practicing the writing section using AI, especially Task 2.

However, I'm baffled. I've been writing multiple essays for days now.
ChatGPT gave me a band scoring between 7 to 7.5
Gemini gave me 6.5
Deepseek gave me 6-6.5

Most of the recommendations given by them is to try to "sound more natural"

But I'm wondering if I'm maybe doing something wrong by relying on AI for this? Has anyone been through the same thing?

Does M shaped hairline always means balding?

I apologize if this was asked before but I’m genuinely curious about this

I’m 24, I always had a big forehead ever since I was young, and recently I noticed when I pull my hair back tight, it forms a this V shape.

I did a similar comparison last year (although I’m not sure if my hair was wet or not back then) and it formed the same shape

Images from 3 years ago, although not pulled back, shows that I had this U Shaped hairline.

I’m unsure of what to do or proceed with.
Right now I recently started ketoconazole for seb derm and doing derma rolling

Do I start something or do I just monitor?

Vertical tooth fracture? Really anxious..

I’m really anxious, so I had a root canal on an upper premolar (first one, beside my canine tooth, right side from my pov, left side from dentist pov) two years ago, however, months ago, I noticed occasional dull ache, as well as bleeding at one side of the crown when flossing, and tapping pain, I also noticed I could feel a gap above the crown with my fingernail, this kept going until one day it fell off while I was flossing.

I went to the dentist to re cement it, I mentioned my symptoms to him, he took that xray (which I can’t upload here for some reason?) and told me it looks fine, there isn’t any inflammation in the ligaments too according to him, and he had no clue why I have tapping pain, he recemented it, I went home and few days later I noticed the tapping pain was gone, however, I felt excess cement, so I went back, he cleaned any excess cement and stains, and that’s about it, until I noticed now weeks later, the symptoms I had at first are pretty much back, tapping pain, occassuonal dull pain that something radiates upwards slightly below my nose, and also there’s occassional needle like pain at one corner of the gums of the crown (also I don’t know if it matters but I have no biting pain)

I re-searched alot and only found one case similar to mine, and he ended up needing extraction due to it turning out to be a vertical tooth fracture

Could it be the same for me?
Thanks kindly.

Motorcycles

Anyone else noticed recently how loud motorcycles got?

I am a person who suffers from Insomnia, and trying to get sleep sometimes is just unbearable, motorcycles going full speed from around evening-ishaa till 3-4am, not giving any consideration about them being in a neighborhood with living creatures trying to sleep..

Is it possible to learn to sleep through noise?

I am a person who has been suffering from sleeping issues ever since I was young (Combined with OCD which is probably a root cause as well for this), there has been instances where I would be unable to sleep the whole night, and have to compensate for it during the day, however, for some reason I find myself unable to sleep through noise, and infact VERY sensitive to it.

Whether it is some faint tv noise, birds outside, motorcycles/cars passing by, neighbours kids playing and shouting, dogs barking, etc, I already have a fan but it doesn't seem to be good enough to filter this, and at the moment I don't have any ear-plugs yet

I am wondering if its possible to learn to sleep through noise? like would it be some sort of exposure therapy where you try to numb your ears to them? or is it black and white, like some people can and some people can't?
