the WHY: I was not prepared for STUDYING, in Jr. High, I got a's and B's by not studying. I was BSing the 1st 2 months of school.
JC has pointed out a common problem in many schools today . . . students are simply not taught how to study today to the degree it was taught when I was in school (which was long enough ago). I see my own friends' children struggle with homework and I am appalled at their study habits.
I do believe that JC will really buckle down and hit the books, including taking advantage of tutoring after receiving this wake-up call. If he's still having problems in comprehension, etc., then pursuing other avenues of finding the cause would seem to be in line.
I think that debating JC's source of his problem is pointless. We should encourage him, rather than diagnose hiim which should not be within the realm of this forum.
And so JC, there's no doubt in my mind you will rise above this. PLEASE keep us posted.
Kindest regards.
