<p>I had a roommate at Brown who would take incompletes in most classes ROUTINELY, every semester. Then she’d use whatever vacation followed end of semester to finish up all the work. I don’t know WHY she did this, it seemed like self-torture to me. She wound up in grad school at U Chicago so it worked for her!</p>
<p>I could not believe how easy it was for her to get the incompletes; I would never have dared ask.</p>
