My grades are poor this quarter. How can I know if its just going to get worse?
Considering the required departmental courses and General Education requirements (GEs) can help you to judge your ability to take on increasingly difficult workloads and schedules. For Revelle students in particular, if five courses (including GEs) in one quarter proves to be too much, you may want to reconsider your options as Bioengineering classes will become increasingly more difficult later on. Fortunately, there are quite a few places you can go to make sure it doesnt get worse. Go to a college advisor, make an appointment with an advisor in the BSA Office, check out the free UCSD tutoring that is available either through OASIS or Tau Beta Pi, sit down and talk with your TAs, professors, RAs or even past students and alumni. The more people you talk to, the better informed you will be as to whether or not youre making the right decision. (Margene Wight, 2007.06.11; Prof.
