please make sure that wherever you’re at in life, you don’t treat it like a transitory period. don’t waste your college years wishing to already be graduated & have a job. don’t waste your single years wishing for someone to be in love with. if/when those things come, they will come in due time and they will be good. but there is nothing like looking back and feeling empty because you wasted literal years ignoring what you had because you were hoping for something better. while it’s important to better yourself and reach for your goals, don’t neglect the present because that’s where you are now and it’s your now that determines your future. 

The whole point of university is to push up the standard from A level and to teach you to write like a scientist / historian etc. There's no such thing as a "perfect" essay. Essays which are marked highly consist of sound, in-depth and well backed arguments which are interesting and present new ideas. Doing this to a high standard is difficult and demonstrates a higher academic ability, but it's not necessary to perform at this level all the time to pass your degree. It is however important to be able to grade students in a way so that those who put in the effort are differentiated. I know two people on my course who always scored 80% +. You know what they did? They would write and re-write their essays. They would peer review them, criticize them and then write them again. They gave 110% to everything, and that's why they were graded in a higher grade bracket to everyone else. That's what it takes to be a published author / academic. You can't just coast through your degree and expect high marks for average effort.
