1. ATTENDANCE: “C” students are often late and miss class frequently. They put others priorities ahead or 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 is cool to be tarty because it makes them think they are big shots. Skipping class in another downfall for the “C” and failing students

2. PERPARATION: “C” students may prepare the assignments consistently, but often in a perfunctory manner. Their work may sloppy or careless. At times, it is incomplete or late. They postpone doing home assignments in order to texts friends, visits friends on Facebook, or send tweets to some of 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 payoffs.
