1. Attendance: “C” students are often late and miss class frequently. They put other priorities ahead of academic work. In some cases, their health or constant fatigue renders them physically unable to keep up with the demands of high-level performance. They think it’s cool to be tardy because it makes them think they are the big shots. Skipping class is another downfall for the “C” and failing students.

2. Preparation: “C” students may prepare their assignments consistently, but often in a perfunctory manner. Their work may be sloppy or careless. At times, it is incomplete or late. They postpone doing assignments in order to text friends, visit friends on Facebook. They take shortcuts to complete academic work. They are short-sighted because they can’t see the long range destruction of taking shortcuts. It never pays off.
