Pre-submit AI-score checklist for international students
TL;DR 24 hours before submit: scan the whole paper, clear the red band, retest, read it, back it up. PaperMirror collapses the first three into one login. If credits run short, buy the ¥30 or ¥50 pack — do not send the draft to a grey-market shop.
24 hours before submit
- Export the latest .docx. Save a dated local backup.
- In PaperMirror, upload or paste the whole paper (abstract through conclusion; figure text is separate).
- Read the overall AI rate. Aim for the low-risk band. See what AI rate is normal.
- List every high-risk paragraph. Literature review, discussion, and conclusion first.
- One-click rewrite or hand-edit, then retest immediately. Do not wait overnight and judge on another site.
- Check citations, numbers, and terms your supervisor named as keepers.
- Submit in the school system. Close draft links in browser history.
One week before submit
- Write the methods you actually ran, not a pure template.
- Group work: know which sections are yours. Scanning only your part still drops context — scan the file you will submit.
- Sign up for PaperMirror, claim 1,000 credits, estimate length, then buy a credit pack so payment does not stall on due day.
Do not
- Do not send the final draft to an anonymous checking group.
- Do not scan only the introduction.
- Do not buy extra grey-market accounts because of the “international 10%, UK 35%” myth. The AI models are the same family.
- Do not submit unreadable sentences just to chase a number.
- Do not treat a PaperMirror (or any self-check) report as official school proof.
Hand the first three checklist steps to PaperMirror
In-house engine, red paragraphs you can rewrite, credits billed for what you use.
Start a self-checkDetection and rewrite are for pre-submit self-checks. Follow your school's integrity policy. PaperMirror is not Turnitin or CNKI. The school system is the source of truth.
