It seems like this student is having difficulty learning the material on their own or doesn't understand the faculty expectations. The student might benefit from academic support services, but I would meet with them one-on-one first to talk about how how they are approaching the course. It's important that students know their faculty are there to help when they need it.
Regards,
Chris Burns

> I would suggest the appeals process is for just this issue. This student sounds as if they are either overly nervous and trying to find anything that may help, or has an axe to grind...both of which are not productive. If they have a content issue or concept they would like to discuss, I would leave it at that level, and refuse to go over the whole exam.
