MythsI can go into the Writing Center, and they’ll edit my paper for me!

The people at the Writing Center will tell me what grade they think my teacher will give me.

The consultants are going to judge me based on the quality of my work.

I’m already an awesome writer, so I have no need for the Writing Center. 9
