The 2.8 is her overall GPA. Yes, she’s had to re-take a couple of engineering-related classes. Also, as I mentioned she had to get help from friends in order to get through some of them. During the winter quarter she dropped her ChemE classes and has been taking non-major and elective classes for two quarters to explore other options. She originally planned to get back into the ChemE track in the fall quarter, but now she’s feeling it’s not right for her and “doesn’t know if she can do it”. She’s lost a lot of self-confidence; this whole thing is stressful for all of us.
I’ll have to check and see how many credits she currently has, and what the forecast would be for her graduating within the 225 limit. Admittedly, we haven’t been following that very closely. I need to talk to her again and get some answers to your other questions. Thanks again.
