This leads many students to assume that their audience is already familiar with most of the material. As a result, student writers often take shortcuts by failing to place information within its context, or by neglecting to define terms.

One way to overcome this problem is to write your paper so that a general reader unfamiliar with the topic would be able to read and understand

Hi, my name is Katrina Rivera and I'm currently your freshman class president and running for sophomore class president.

Students who have this attitude need to realize that many college applications require you to list your senior courses, including information about course levels and credit hours. It will be very obvious to the admission officers if you've decided to take the year off. Many colleges also include as part of the application a form called the mid-year grade report.
