University Writing course?

<p>Is it hard to get good grades in the university writing class?
what kind of writings do you do?
how do you prepare for it... is there anyway?</p>

<p>UW gives out very few A's (but people do get them), mostly A-'s and B+'s</p>

<p>you do four major papers using four different writing modes (lens, conversation, CCP, and retrospective). it's pretty pointless to go over what those are here, though. just wait for the class. in addition, you'll have weekly writing exercises on the readings you do.</p>

<p>there's really no way to prepare for it. don't worry, it's not a particularly stressful course.</p>

<p>thanks, blah...
but i'm not a native, so i might have troubles with the class. I'm afraid! Help me!</p>
