Even assuming you could get it to write an adequate amount of content and design believable sections, I really doubt this would fool many teachers. Here's another example that just doesn't feel like a human wrote it in any capacity:

It really does read exactly like those content farm sites that exist solely to game the search results and get ad revenue. I think the only way it could fool a teacher is if their standards were nearly to the floor after years of grading essays from students who hadn't been taught basic writing skills, such that they were basically passing anyone who manages to stay on topic and whose sentences have subjects and predicates. And from what I hear this is often the case.
Eh, unfortunately I feel like I would've written this back in middle school as I was really disengaged from everything we were being taught and would've just regurgitated a bunch of factoids I would've read on the internet.
in high school the teachers would probably get suspicious about a student who doesent engage getting straight A's. In college it wouldn't be up to scratch
That would get an A in american high or a C-B in comm college. Its really incredible that this reads like a lot of papers I've read.
If I were doing this as a high schooler (I'm not denying I might've for some assignments) I'd do it a couple sentences at a time, like, give it a topic sentence and kind of fill in the blanks for the rest of the paragraph. Especially if it were common core garbage. Sort of like using it as like autocomplete or something.
That would save me time & make it easier to start and focus on assignments, but still end up outputting a very reasonable essay
for the amount of work it would take to get that to be any good for an A in college, you might as well just do it the right way
