As we know assignments play a vital role in getting a high score in any subject in a Canadian college. In every subject, students must submit assignments either on a weekly basis or on monthly basis depending on the subject and the professor who set it. The assignment has a weightage of around 30-40% of the final result. Many international students get scared when they hear the very first time that an assignment in Canadian colleges contributes up to 30-40 percent in the final result. But you should not worry if you are reading this post.
In this post, we will be going to discuss how to get a high grade on an assignment in Canada as an international student. I will explain to you several points that how to do the assignment and where to focus most while doing the assignment.
This post will demonstrate to you about:
- plagiarism free or unique content

- commence assignment on time
- grammatical accuracy
- and on-topic answer
Let discuss the above-mentioned point in deep so you can understand them completely and able to get a high grade in the assignment of any subject even you are an international or new student in Canada.
Plagiarism free or unique content
The first important point to get a high grade on an assignment in Canada as an international student is a plagiarism-free content or answer. Plagiarism-free content or information play important role in grading your assignment and it could even lead to suspension of you from college if you do not follow this point or policy.
In every Canadian college, there is a strict policy of plagiarism. Plagiarized content or information is the information that is copied or of someone else. If you violate the policy of plagiarism, then the first time you will get a warning and 0 grade on that assignment. If you continue violating the policy of plagiarism and are caught a third time, then you will be suspended from college or subject depending on the college.
Let me discuss in deep.
In first case
Suppose you are given an assignment on any topic. If you search the topic on Google and get information, then you should not copy-paste the same information from the website to your assignment. You must read the information and understand it then you must write it in your assignment in your words without seeing it on the website.
In second case
Many students just copy the content in their assignment from someone else assignment from last or previous year and end up getting in trouble for violating plagiarism policy. You should not copy the information from the previous year’s assignment or from your classmate’s assignment.
In short, you need to first read and understand the information and then write it in your words by paraphrasing without seeing at original content.
Grammatical Accuracy
To get a high grade on an assignment in Canada, grammatical accuracy is essential irrespective of subject. Even if you are doing the assignment of computer programming, computer science, any technical subject, and more then also you need to be accurate whenever you are dealing with sentences.
If you will make grammatical mistakes in any subject’s assignment, then it will hurt your grades. I am in the second semester of a computer programming course and in every subject, there is always notice of grammatical errors that grammatical mistakes will hurt your marks even in a technical subject.
Write in organised manner
You should write your assignment in an organized manner. You should answer the question step by step in a fully organized and understandable way. If you will answer the question disorderly then the professor will not be able to get your point and many times answers to the question only make sense if they are written in an organized way. Because many answers take the support of the previous line to demonstrate the next line and without having the previous line it does not make any sense or does not able to express its full meaning.
Along with that, the organized answers will give a positive impact on the professor and you will end up getting a good grade. This also plays a vital role in getting a high score on an assignment in Canada as an international student.
Start assignment on time
You will always have some days of time to submit the assignment to the professor. Many students think that they have lots of time and start their assignment very late only a few days before the submission due date. But should not start assignment late because many time things go wrong from what we have thought. If you start the assignment only a few days before the submission date, then your assignment may take more time than you expected and finally, you may end up lacking time. This may result in mistakes in your assignment or incomplete assignment.
We can not predict the future. Many times, on the final days of the assignment we may come across another important work and we may lose either assignment or other important work. It is important to submit assignments on time because if you submit late then you may get a 0 or lower grade even you have done the assignment perfectly. Never think that you have lots of time. Just start working on your assignment as soon as possible so that you can successfully submit the assignment on time.
Citation
Citation is another factor using which you can get a high grade on an assignment in a Canadian college. Citation is another key point that you should know though you will get to know about citation when you attain your classes. Mostly about all the key points which I am discussing here will be thought you when you attain the classes for the first time. You may lose marks or grades if you have not done the citation correctly.
What is a citation?
Citation is the practice of indicating the resource using which you have completed your work. There are many types of citations to indicate different types of resources such as websites, books, YouTube videos, and many more.
Suppose you are writing your assignment from any website even by paraphrasing then also you need to indicate that website name in your assignment. If you are writing using any YouTube video, then also you need to indicate the link of that video in your assignment to show that you have used this video or content as a resource.
So, you need to add the resource name or link to your assignment. You will know more about how to do it when your classes will start at the college.
In the last point, I want to give you the way using which you can check the assignment’s grammatical accuracy on your own. So, stick to this post till last.
Grammar correction tool
Many times, we are not able to correct minor grammatical mistakes and we end up getting lower grades due to grammatical errors. But from now you do not need to worry because I am going to give you a path using which you can correct your even very tiny mistakes within some seconds.
So, if you are struggling to correct grammatical mistakes every time when you submit an assignment then you should go for the Grammarly platform. It has a free plan using which you can almost short out every grammatical mistake.

You will get your mistakes underlined in red color and when you click on that you will get the correct version of that mistake. The mistake could be anything.

Key points are plagiarism-free content, citation, grammatical accuracy, commence assignment on time, write in an organized manner, and last I have given you a bonus grammatical correction tool.
