Curiosity: “C” students seldom explore topics deeper than
their face value. They lack vision and bypass interconnectedness of concepts.
Immediate relevancy is often their singular test for involvement.
Retention: “C” students retain less information and for shorter periods. Less effort seems to go toward organizing and associating learned information with previously acquired knowledge. They display short-term retention by relying on cramming sessions that focus on details, not concepts.
Attitude: “C” students are not visibly committed to class. They participate without enthusiasm. Their body language often expresses boredom.
Talent: “C” students vary enormously in talent. Some have exceptional ability but show undeniable signs of poor self-management or bad attitudes. Others are diligent but simply average in academic ability.

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 usable 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 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
home assignments in order to text friends, visit friends on Facebook, or send
tweets to some or their followers. 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.
