Students must attempt this on their own before coming to guidance for assistance as your guidance counsellor will ask questions about what went wrong on line. The guidance counsellors role is to discuss course options, pathways, post secondary planning with students, and troubleshoot if something does not run smoothly. The guidance counsellor cannot enter-in or submit your options for you.
