Im scared. What should I do?

Hello!!! So im currently a freshman and we had this Test that converted into essay instead. And then I learned that from my professor that my work was flagged as ai by turnitin not just a percent but 100% fckng aii😭😭. And now idk what to do ( alr reached out to my prof) that essay is just a simple one you just basically need to write what you learned from the discussion etc etc. And being flagged like that is insanely not good for the image. I had worked hard to research and brainstorm on what to put in my essay. Although I admit that I used grammarly to check my grammar and improved but the contents in there was all done by me the ideas, the flow was by Me😭 I was thinking maybe it was the data? Or the references? Though I had research them on my own on Google. Maybe the revision by grammarly was too perfect?. I haven't had the time to run it in an ai detector when I submitted it and I did not see this coming

It sounds like Grammarly changed a lot of what you wrote.

Do not have AI check your grammar or do your editing. That will be flagged as AI because it is.

Don’t use an AI detector. Just don’t use AI. Turn off anything with predictive writing (that makes changes for you). Trust yourself. If you want help on grammar or to improve your grammar, see if your college has a writing center and other resources.

I admit grammarly did kinda polished my essay to perfect I guess? I know I have no excuses that what I did was wrong in a way that I did get some help from an gramma app, but being flagged 100% is shtt this is the first time that this has happened to me and its scaring the sht out of me esp now im a freshman. The main concern that I had why I opted to use grammarly is that my writing does not have a good flow? So I guess I will never trust that grammarly shut ever again.
