[Gina]

Rebecca, Pony... Thank you so much I will forward this thread to my daughter to read. Yes she is an adult and has to take care of it on her own.. I appreciate the good advice. Janet , ty for your input to..

She does study and work very hard. God I even got her a tutor for organic chemistry. It is going to get harder and she knows it. I always tell her hang in there and you will make it, even tho it gets tougher.. She wants to be an optometrist .She does have a long road ahead of her, and I can only help her out so much. Rebecca you know to well what its like, and my two cousins one a dr. another a dentist tell her all the time, study hard get through it .

Thanks Girls!

She will get through it!!!!!!! It is during this pre-med process that they try to weed out all of those who are not too serious about going to professional school. A tutor is a great idea. I remember my hubby telling me how hard organic chemistry was for him. Just tell her to do the best that she can do and everything will work out.

My daughter had problems with a professor last year. He had told the class that he would NEVER schedule a test on Friday. Before spring break she checked with him about what day he would be giving a test and he asked her why she wanted to know. She told him that on Friday she was leaving to go snow skiing. He then informed her that the test was on Friday. Every time that anything was brought up about it he glared at her even though she had nothing to do with it being brought up. It ended up that she and my husband had to drive up separately from the rest of the family because of her test.

She's had some real doozies for professors. It makes you wonder how some of them got to be professors!!! And don't get me started on foreign professors!!!

Most professors are at universities doing research and part of their requirements to do research at the university is to also TEACH! So, most of them doing really give a crap about teaching or their students.
