my roommate handed in a spanish activity packet and got it back with a B on the top. she had handed in two previously and had done the same quality work on all and got A-'s on the first two. she went up to the professor who looked at all of them and realized the disparity and changed the grade to an A-. only do it if you really KNOW that something is wrong.

i think its BS that my econ TA gave me 1/5 points for this short answer on my last exam but am i going to go argue for two extra points (because i know i was not completely right)? no, casue in the end it doesnt matter and just makes me look bad to her.
