I believe the issues stems from struggling with the material (which ultimately implies she was not prepared).

The bright side is her mechanics look good when she's  instructed what to do or informed the answer has to be in a specific format.

However, the issue stems from understanding the concepts. She's answering the questions, but not understanding WHY she is answering them.

I'm more then happy to discuss further. Please do not hesitate to contact me if need be.

Thanks,
Stephen

Why were you worried?  Did she struggle with material or was she just not prepared?

She actually failed her exam. 😞😞She was so upset because she thought she did well. Haven't actually talked too much to her about it because she was working on other exams. I didn't want to make her more upset. I'll talk to her this weekend and see what she thinks happened.

Thanks for checking back in with us. I'll let you know after I talk to her.

Best,

Kathleen
