Scenario 2 Marie is in the eighth grade at East Middle School. She earns above-average grades in all of her school courses except science. Her favorite after-school activity is playing basketball. She would like to play basketball in high school next year. However, the high school says that athletes must pass all their classes in order to participate in a sport. This summer Marie can participate in a special summer science school that will help her in science. She also has been given the chance to go to basketball camp. The basketball camp takes place the exact time as the science school. Marie has two weeks before she either has to sign up for basketball camp or summer science school. What should she do?

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is compulsory for the students to pass all subjects in order to get signed up for the basketball camp, and Marie has two weeks before the camp starts and she has to make decision between choosing the extra science class or to join the basketball camp. So she should avail these two weeks and should focus on the science subject as much as she can in order to pass it with above average marks. In this way, she would be able to have a command over the science subject and can get herself enrolled for the basketball camp. So by availing these two weeks in her study, she can join her desired basketball camp.
