Perhaps your instuctor does not care who writes your paper, but some
instructors can easily identify a change of author where a second
language is involved. Government operated high schools in the USA are
quite consistantly mediocure, but high school is roughly equivelent to
a USA college in some countries. It depends somewhat on your major in
college, and whether you expect a BA, BS degree or other. It would be
helpful to know your primary language, and where else you have lived
including the country where you are attending high school and/or
college.
 In the USA high school students typical live with parents or
relatives, while college students are typically self disaplined and on
their own. Typically success in college requires at least twice the
out of class study time needed in high school.   Neil
