I find, as the post below suggests that it is the students
at the extremes--those who are very, very hungry for an A are
constantly checking with me and those who are doing poorly
are less likely to check, but are the second most likely group--
for them it is a matter of poor overall skills I believe--they
have a difficult time mastering the material _and_ have difficulty
with keeping up with what's going on relative to their selves!
