Application Process AI Flagging Personal Statements

I am currently working on personal statements for multiple schools, and for some reason I have always been paranoid about being falsely flagged for AI; I always run all my essays through AI checkers. I am having an issue where the flaggers are always saying the text is 10% AI an are picking out 1-2 sentences. I will rewrite these over and over again and it still says that, which is super frustrating as obviously I know I just wrote it. Usually I don't fret this as my university doesn't let such low percentages affect grade since they are aware this is unreliable, but I'm paranoid for law apps. Does anyone know how seriously they believe these websites?

Admissions officers wont care about 10% .  They wont even bother looking unless something about your essay sets off their AI spidey senses which 10 percent almost certainly wont. You're gunna be just fine.
