I feel the past few years of making projects using ChatGPT, and before that using Quillbot, have shown their colours. Moreover, since so many internships, I was never directly involved in drafting, and hence, now the realisation is coming to me this late, just before my graduation. I am really worried. I have seen the final drafts, edited by my seniors, and there is a huge difference in articulation and the manner of writing. Their sentence construction is too precise, and the words used are ordinary, yet, either in an extraordinary manner or in a very precise manner, which, after reading, makes me realise that I too could have used this basic word, which I have known of for so many years. I have also tried following the sentence construction and words as used in judgments, to make my drafts a little bit better, but never been successful.
The real issue is that when I draft something, I try to brainstorm a better way of writing the sentence, but at that juncture, I reach a pit stop. It's like I can't think further than that. I really want to excel in litigation, but I need some real tips and help from anyone who can guide me on improving drafting. Never in the last 5 years had I ever thought that just before my graduation, the only thing I would be worried about was my bad drafting.
