What do you do when your student is failing and flailing?

@compmom - Can you elaborate on the need to preserve the transcript and the possible medical withdrawal? I’m not sure whether this is something we should be discussing or not. She’s into finals now, so the regular w/d period is over, of course. I THINK the situation is that she’s getting, in her 4 classes, an A, B, probably D and either a D or an F. I don’t really understand the way to think strategically about this. Can she withdraw from just the two classes she’s doing poorly in? or would she have to w/d from all 4? Would that be worth doing?

Or are you just suggesting she take time off NEXT semester? i.e a medical leave of absence…

I welcome anyone’s advice and knowledge about this, as I don’t really understand it.
