Is it true that it's nearly impossible to get an A in WRIT140?

It is an intense class but my son has passed on a few tips that helped him. Do not write your paper the night before. Go in to office hours and meet with your professor. Show the professor your paper and ask if you are covering the main points. My son even sent drafts off his paper to the professor by email and he would let him know if he needed to expand on any points, tense etc. Go to the writing center. they are very helpful. The first paper is always a shock. My son’s first paper was a C minus and he considers himself a pretty good writer. Each paper you do is weighted more than the others so that is helpful to remember.
