[quote=Anonymous]My DD (a sophomore at a T10 on the pre-med path) came home from college with a series of bad grades (C's and D's) in science courses. She did fine during her freshmen year. I asked her for the reason, she said she "couldn't figure out the class" and that she had gone to every office hour, studied her butt off, and still didn't do well. I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing here (maybe mental health issues?), but I'm debating telling her to quit being pre-med and that she wouldn't make it as a doctor. These grades won't make her competitive at all and it's a long road of studying ahead of her. She's quite clumsy and lacks common sense which wouldn't be good in a medical setting. She didn't always want to be pre-med, but she's been pretty determined once she started her studies at college. For context, my husband and his family are all doctors, and I work in finance. [/quote]
