Specifically, it discusses students' experiences preparing for the English composition question on university entrance exams and compares these with the writing experiences they are likely to encounter in a university-level EFL writing classroom. It will be shown that these two different writing experiences share some basic characteristics in common, but that they also differ in important ways. It is hoped that an increased awareness of these similarities and differences will help teachers reflect on and refine their approach to EFL writing instruction.}, pages = {69--85}, title = {Learning from Our Students' Previous L2 Writing Experiences : The English Composition Question on University Entrance Exams}, volume = {7}, year = {2003} }
