- Grades <40 are a bad sign
- is it ok on response questions, 0's on problems?
- are problems ok, but not so on response
- overall problems
- many answers with 0's (bad guess/stab? errors?)
- Need to avoid repeat on next exams
- relatively little has occurred (1 of 4 hour exams)
- pattern-- can you figure out what went wrong
- get into study group, set up sessions, ask for help
- if not, likely to repeat
- Monitor drop date carefully (but don't just give up)
