Daughter failed test in grad school ...

[crinkles]

I know when i came close to failing an course it was a serious wake-me-up. I was able to re-sit the exam and just scraped by. I took things more seriously after that, I just did not want to fail.

Maybe it will just re-start the motors so to speak.

I had a wake up call after the first year of my apprenticeship - 87% !! No, no no, that's not what I do. Next year I got to me, a more respectable result - 63%. I'm not a try hard, average is where I want to be.

My present job is like this and it's intimidating! My last one suffered from brain drain over time and I thought I wanted this.

I'm sure I'm getting way more personal growth than if I had stayed put. She'll pull through! Edit- she did.

What has always helped me out in life is believing in:

Continuous Improvement

in everything I do.

And to accept, 5 steps forward, 1 step back.

I've heard of people using a Tutor to improve test scores.
With one-on-one teaching, they can see exactly your Daughters weak points.
