STUDENT LOW GRADES 2

Students Low Performance

In university there are some at risk students. Students who do not do their tasks as they

should, are considered low-performance students and they may not get good grades. That may

lead to fail the course. However, some universities provide a help center for underperforming

students to help them improve. There are several causes of students underperforming problem

such as time management, college stress and family problems.

One major cause of student low performance is bad time management. Most

underperforming students are struggling from managing their time. It's an important factor in

accomplishing work. When a person manages his time successfully; it helps him improve as

student. For instance, making a schedule for studying during the week could improve the student

performance. Moreover, skipping homework and courses assignments until the due date. Thus,

their poor time management might drop their grades dramatically.

Moreover, low grades can also be a result of study pressure. For example, students are

required to have 6 or 7 courses in each semester. That lead to put more stress on them due to the

many tasks that he should do. In addition, even if the student is smart and hard-working, this

stress can affect his mental health negatively. In addition, a student may put pressure on himself

to get high marks in every subject. Thus, it could lead to the opposite result. Therefore, students

need to be aware of their health and do not pressure themselves in study.

Furthermore, a student low grades may be a result of their family problems, every student

should be supported by his family, but unfortunately some families do not care about their

children. This problem could be one of the major causes a lot of student problems such as his

low-performance in university. For example, some parents do not even know their children

university requirements and do not ask about their grades and results and lacking information's

about their children. However, some parents are careful towards their children but sometimes

they might be busy working and could not afford enough time for their children. As a result,

there could be some negative emotions that get into the student's mind, and lead to low grades

from student.

In conclusion, time, college stress, and family conflicts are the main causes of

underperforming students. These main causes should be fixed to avoid the student's low grades

and other related issues that come from family conflicts. It's recommended for the family and the

students to meet occasionally and try contact with each other more frequently, another possible

solution from the university is to provide a psychologic help center to understand the student and

know the main causes of the student problems and to provide efficient solutions.
