Abstract
My project is about how preparing students in high school for college writing affects their readiness for their first papers. I believe this is important research because it can help determine if there is a problem, and how to solve said problem. I hope to find a correlation between preparation for students in high school and their grade on their first paper(s) in college. I plan to collect data from a short survey asking if they were taught MLA format in high school, if they felt prepared going into their first paper, and if they are comfortable, the grade they received on their first paper.
