The midterms were in general very good.
The mean was 75 (of the test score and extra credit all together.)
Midterm 2 will be a bit more difficult than Midterm 1. If you did well, keep your daily math work out. Focus in understanding what you are doing (as opposed to applying recipes)
If you score less than 50, you need to change your strategy. It will be a good idea to discuss with your instructor about it.
