[quote=Anonymous]Possible scenarios: 1)The kid fails, UMD rescinds and the kid has to deal with the consequences (perhaps community college). 2) The kid pulls up his grade just enough and nothing is rescinded. 3) He fails, not rescinded goes to UMD. Here is the biggest issue I see - is he ready for college? My freshman just finished an intense first year - he told us that the class work was hard, covered a lot of material very quickly, and grades were largely dependent on a few tests so easy to get lower grades if you messed up. Assessments were stressful. This is something the student has to be willing to manage and handle. Of course he's not the only student going through this right now but schools want student who want to be there, without a good reason for a sudden drop in an important class UMD may not want that student.
