PS and plagiarism checker?!

I am submitting my ucas application today for medicine as a reapplicant and I just wanted to ask if there are any credible plagiarism checkers that I could use to make sure I haven't accidentally plagiarised?

there's quillbot and also quite a lot of other ones like grammarly
Don’t bother. The % match required to get flagged to your choices is sensibly high, so you would have had to copied something wholesale to get caught out. (And if you did copy something it’s just going to give you false reassurance in any case)

Don’t stress, just submit it.

As above, phrases and terms that all Med applicants use will not be significant - but any PS with entire paragraphs etc that are blatant copies will get flagged.

And btw, for any course like Medicine that demands professional integrity that level of plagiarism would mean automatic rejection.
