Midterm deficiency report significance in the Foundation:
    It denotes first-half progress and time-management status;
    It is not a grade for us;
    It is not averaged into the final evaluation.

Any deficiency is recorded now while there is time for remediation.
Students can still finish the semester well with a midterm deficiency.
