[quote=Anonymous]I would make her speak directly with the prof to see if there was any hope of saving her grade and negotiate what it would take. If it is possible to get a B or better (with extra course work etc), then she stays and commits to the negotiated extra work. But some professors grade on an absolute scale - every point off per test is the equivalent of a % point off her grade. She may truly be beyond hope. And at some point, you don't want a D to be in her GPA - that will haunt her forever. (I had one back in college despite all other grades being B & higher because I was too stubborn and in denial to drop the class. I still had to explain myself when trying to go back to school for another degree 20 years later. Not insurmountable, but man what a pain!). If so, then have her drop it & pay you back.[/quote]
