However, my teacher still has not added three points to an error from a test in April. Also, she has not yet dropped my lowest quiz grade, which she does at the end of each semester. Finally, there’s this one assignment that she said she would count as a quiz grade, but in the gradebook it’s entered as a class assignment. After all of these changes, I calculated my average, and it’s still only a 89.1. Is there any use in emailing her about this? If so, how should I do it? I don’t want to be another annoying grade grubber; I think she’s already kind of annoyed since I brought up the test correction so many times (Yet she still hasn’t changed it!!). I’m also really nervous since final grades are due at the end of the day tomorrow!! Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!!
For what purpose? To ask her to bump you up to a 90? You can certainly ask, but there is no way that you can do this without been perceived, as you say, “another annoying grade grubber.” If you had a solid A on the final, you would have had a better argument.
Would it be better to go to my school tomorrow and talk to my teacher in person, or would that come off as even more desperate/annoying? Thanks guys!
Also, I know most people think a B+ isn’t bad, but I already have got a B both semesters in AP World History this year (Which is my first B in any class -_-) and I don’t want colleges to see a sudden change from strait 100s throughout middle school and freshman year to 3 Bs and a bunch of low As, which is kind of what happened.
89.4 (if your school rounds up) would be something worth talking about but an 89.1 would take a little more than a couple points to bump up. You can try asking her to consider bumping your grade but there’s a very low chance that she will see your case.
