Just got word that my DS got a solid B GPA for the first tri and that was with Calculus and Physics. I am so proud of him.
YOU ROCK!!!!!!!
YOU ROCK!!!!!!!
Congratulations to all that received good news regarding 1st trimester grades !
Way to go
Does anyone have any advice to those who got really bad news ? like 2 failed classes and recommended for separation ? has anyone been through that ?
Have heard that RADM Green is here to make changes and will not be as lenient as in prior years... never thought that a setback could sound so good
Did you get any suggestions. My student has the same problem. and it is a shock to us since they have been given so much leave. He's Very upset of course?
I assume the recommendation for separation was on the the grade sheet? Assuming things still work the same, that is automatically put there by the computer based on the two Fs in combination with a GPA that I'm sure is under 2.0 so don't panic ... yet.
I have seen people come back from two Fs if given the chance, but your mid has to have a real plan with real changes that he/she can document in a letter. How will he/she change their study habits, what tutors will he/she utilize, what extracurricular activities will he/she give up? The more specifics in a letter the better. Subjective statements about serving my country and working harder probably wont cut it.
Personally, I say, congratulations to all the members of the current regiment who made it through the first trimester, and safe voyages to all those now heading out to sea.
