I noticed that my essays are terrible when I don't have a good thesis and when I don't answer the question. (This makes perfect sense.) For compare and contrasts, I've also noticed that I can remember to analyze and make direct comparisons but never do either together. For change over time, I think the most difficult is remembering both parts and the global context. I think for both, I can get some evidence to support my thesis. Also for both, I just give up on expanded core. For compare and contrast, I attempt to include global context for the extra points but I don't really bother for change over time essays.

so do you want to try meeting to go over how to improve your performance on the essays so you can remove the "crying" tags from posts? ;)
