Midterm results

What should I do now that I have my midterm results?

In all circumstances, we strongly recommend that you critically reflect on your preparation and performance in each course so far and what you might do differently moving forward. We encourage you to speak with your instructor to discuss where you need to improve.  There are other supports to help you including the Math Tutorial Centre and CS Consulting Centre for tutoring assistance, and the Student Success Office for study and test preparation workshops. Your academic advisor can also be a source of assistance and someone to talk to if you are struggling. Counselling services provide free and confidential service to all students, particularly if you are dealing with personal challenges that impact your ability to succeed at school or in other parts of your life.
