Hello everyone. I just found out I didn't pass my second test and I was a little discouraged. I had a talk with my teacher and she encouraged me to continue and not drop out. My average is 79.5 at mid-term and we need an 80. I have an A average in my lab class which equates to about 4.83 in points (5% of average quizzes). We have until the 15th to withdraw. What do you think?

I would keep going. I had trouble in a skills class with the midterm written part of the test. I knew the questions and the rational of what to do IN the clinical setting BUT the teacher wanted what was from the book. After the midterm i had a 43.9 in the class. After almost a full fledged argument about her marking rational I continued on and did the labs, and took the final. I showed her and came out with a 70 in the course.
Keep going.

Don't give up! You can do it!
Evaluate your study habits/technique and change what needs to be changed and you will be fine.
I appreciate this encouragement.
