  Case: One Retake per Semester
Students are allowed one retake per semester. A parent contacts you to request their child be given a second chance to retake an exam. How do you respond?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Explain to the parent the policy of students being allowed one retake per semester. Explain to the parent that this child has used his/her one retake with this particular exam and that retaking this time will actually be a 3rd retake. I would explain to the parent that this child needs to be remediated on the concepts taught because he/she has not mastered them yet. Set the child up for tutoring and create a different type of assessment once he or she has been remediated.
