[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - just wanted to share some good news. DS failed a class last semester, appealed, was rejected, got a mental breakdown, took off a semester to get well. He sent another email to the prof a couple of months ago (I didn't know), but he never checked his email again for whatever reason I don't know. Today he requested a transcript from the school to apply for an internship, and found the professor changed the grade from F to C! He seems much relieved but is still not happy, probably because of his ADHD brain he is always a perfectionist, but it's so much better than an F. All this time he didn't have to suffer and worry. Thanks anyway to everyone here for your input. I'll definitely encourage him to communicate better with his professors and advisors going forward. [/quote]
That's nice but OMG never checked his email again...for months? 
This bodes poorly for future without some planning and checklists.
And ffs thank the professor.[/quote]

Don’t listen to this poster. That’s great news and is no reflection on the future. I’m one of the posters who failed a class in college. Around the same time, I stopped showing up to my part time job because I didn’t want to work there anymore. I was not having mental health issues and didn’t quit or tell them.  I was immature and irresponsible. It had no reflection on the person I am today as an adult.  I remind DH this when we are frustrated with our own kids.  He did his own share of things then that he wouldn’t do now too. [/quote]
