[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Yes, they are HER grades, but I do feel I have some responsibility to help her make good choices.  Anyway, she received her finals back and final grade for the year, and she is going to have some work to do next year. Grades on Finals were, D,D,A,B,B,D which translates into final grades for the year as B+,B-,A,B+,B-,C.  2 of the D's were from her foreign language classes and I knew she was going to have problems with those.  The other D was a surprise to both her and I.  She said she really studied for that test.  Anyway, when I asked her how she thinks she did overall, she said "Good...because I really studied hard for the finals."  I think the issue is more that she doesn't know how to properly study and that is something we will have to work on.  Getting her a tutor over the summer for her language classes(no sit down workbook stuff but more just immersion - going to restaurants, shopping, just basic conversation) along with renting movies and buying magazines in that language.[/quote]
