[quote=Anonymous]We tell our high school student to try. We say that we want to see that she's trying. Don't leave any homework on the table; turn it all in to help your grade. It can make the difference between a B and an A- sometimes. My spouse told our kids to aim for upwards trajectory in their overall grade over the year. If they went from a B- in the first quarter to an A in the last quarter, then that shows they were putting in the effort to learn and get better. It tells a good story on a transcript. My spouse has a Ph.D. and is a college professor at a very competitive university. [/quote]
