<p>This could easily have been me writing about my son this quarter ( all college aps on last day, tests studied morning of test…). We tried to give him space to make sure he is ready for college, but his grades have tanked. We think it is the first time he has really been challenged at school as it has come to him easily till now ( has challenging IB program with mostly a’s till now and 34 on ACT) and his tendency to last minute work is impacting him. We are trying to make sure he communicates more with his teachers, and works on planning more. We do not want him to ruin all the good work done to date in the last leg of his senior year and will be more involved until he is back on track.
Good luck!</p>
