- Some students will be excellent in a few categories – going above and beyond what you have come to expect from graduate students. Perhaps they are in the top 10% of students you have mentored.
- Some students will not meet expectations in several categories. These students have specific deficiencies that you have catalogued and will need to show some improvement over the next semester. Perhaps they fall in the lowest 10% of students you have mentored.
