[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she struggles so much with tests and school work, why on earth do you think college is where she should be?  I don't know a school worth going to that doesn't have some kind of standards.  I hate to see people going into huge debt for this kind of thing.  If she is unprepared academically, it will be very tough for her regardless of her high intelligence.  [/quote]OP, I would take this comment with a grain of salt.  Not sure where PP thinks your daughter should be, and I certainly don't want to fathom a guess.  With that said, only you really know what your DD is capable of doing.  And since she took AP courses and got C grades, it's obvious she has the capability to do the academics but maybe something less than AP.

For what it's worth, thousands of high schoolers take prep classes for the SAT which means their parent(s) feel some preparation for this standardized test may help or is necessary.  Since she got into a couple of HBCUs, seek out the counselors to help with the freshman classes.  Again, if she was taking AP classes and passed with C grades, she can do the work.

Some positive reinforcement is seriously needed.[/quote]
