[quote=Anonymous]My son was an athlete and with all his responsibilities with that I don't think he could have done anything without free tutors and the guy assigned to the team to register for his classes. He got a 2.1 GPA the 1st year, just enough to stay academically eligible. He ended up getting it all together junior year aka figured it out and went to graduate school.

My youngest was ready for everything except the timing of registering for classes and dropping them when one was going south. He failed out of the business school (sub 3.0, 2.7 GPA) and had to change majors (which was a blessing in disguise), he loves his major and new career. He had medical issues (like 5 different ones), he could not manage that without my help. Doctors shamed me for helping him. Once I was at the gastro dr and the doctor was like, He mom do you think he can handle this himself he's 19 and I said... I don't know ask him what type of doctor you are.. So the dr did and my son said, neurologist? NOPE then he said is he the blood doctor? Nope Is he the throat doctor? NOPE again (he had a growth in the back of his throat that was not cancer - yea) He literally had to take a whole semester off to deal with medical issues.
