What seems to be considered successful or effective or good writing?

I think anything, not just writing is considered successful or effective when you have put a great deal of time, effort and hard work into it.

How does college writing compare to writing you’ve done before?

I think college writing is more in-depth and critical that writing I have done in the past and I have found myself doing a lot more thinking before and while I write than in my everyday writing.

How can you prepare for this kind of writing?

I think you can prepare this kind of writing by using the writing process more and more in your writing whether you need it or not.
