[quote=Anonymous]Our student is in a freshman engineering student (non-ivy) and they told us and him flat out not to expect "A's", you can even expect to fail a class. Your GPA may be 2.5 freshman year. It's tough. From what we have gathered from others - there are certain grades in certain classes that would be a strong indicator that your student should look at another degree (math being one of them, chemistry - esp as an Aerospace Student not so much). Has he met with his advisors? I'm not sure the grades you mentioned would be enough for me to say move on. He's not failing. He's managing. He has plenty of time to improve his grades. BUT this is really about he's feeling? Does he feel like he can handle it? [/quote]
