Getting help with getting off AP
Just wondering if anyone knows where at sfu I can get help with getting off academic probation. Does the advising dept. provide learning services to help those on AP out? Just wondering if anyone knows.

So you get a gpa of under 2.0. Then they send you a letter telling you are on AP and will be kicked out?
if you are barely on the edge of AP, try harder, or try harder with less courses; and if getting an easier load doesn't help, university may not be for you.
if you can't get off AP without taking lots of GPA boosters, then university is not for you
if you are at 0.945 GPA, then drop out.
Second semester, I took courses that I was interested in, and I didn't do anything, no reading, no studying, etc, and I did very well in them, and made a huge progress is weaning off AP.
In the end, you just have to go with something that you're good at.
and its already been said, don't take too many courses
spending time @ end trying to learn everything and going over everything is kind of silly and the disappointment that’s to follow predictable
that said, i slack and cram @ end.. does it work? for me ya, but again this isnt the best method and i know for a fact i could do much much better if i followed my own advice posted above ;)
