when it's that close, you can usually talk to your prof and get him to give you an A. if he won't, ask him if there's any extra credit you can do to make up that 1 point. i knew a girl who got a D, and did extra work to bring it up to a B-

no you don't understand, the final had some really fvcked up questions. For example, I know for sure they were like 2 questions that had no correct answer choice.

And also, 2 questions were repeated! I mean that same exact questions appeared in the test. It was such as pathetic test, so many people complained about it.

I'm pretty sure I can get 1 more point somehow, unless the professor wants to be an ass.

i had a final once where 66% of the questions on it were the exact same questions from the midterm. and because the prof didn't run off enough copies of the midterm answer key i didn't get one. :disgust:

At best I would let someone bring that D up to a C, depending on what class it was. If it was an engineering class, well, do you want an engineer who deserved a D building a bridge for you?

exactly. i hated this girl. she was very manipulative of her boyfriends, and people around her. i heard from several of her friends that she was able to get the D to a B-, but who knows what she did? i'm not condoning, i'm just saying it's possible to change the grade to your favor. (easier, if you're a girl and the prof is nice enough).
