<p>Do philosophy professors assign grades based upon how much they like the student?</p>
<p>no professor assigns grades based upon how much he likes the student</p>
<p>haha. this is a dumb question.</p>
<p>every professor can push grads how they feel. Ive been at D standing in a class, and charmed my way to a B.</p>
<p>sometimes your grade rests more in your TA’s hands. this is usually for huge lecture classes. but if you class is 15 people, then suckin up to the prof doesn’t hurt. although i doubt a majority of them base more than 5% of your grade on how much they like you.</p>
<p>Even partially gradinig upon how much he/she likes the student?</p>
<p>Drew, how do you know?</p>
<p>No, they grade you based on the a priori quality of your soul.</p>
