Should I fight or accept?

<p>I did none of my work in high school and obviously received very poorly grades. I took a couple years off and now have started at a small college. I wish to transfer into a larger 4 year university so I am trying to keep my grades up the best i can. I took a class and got a b+ from the teacher. That would be fine, but being slightly anal I calculated my own grades as the semester went along. I should have gotten an A-. I have emailed him a couple times to get a breakdown of my grade to make sure i wasn’t incorrect. Ends up, my math was correct, but the teacher believes my level over all is B/B+ work and is using that to trump the number grades given in the syllabus. Should I take it above him or resign myself to the B+? </p>

<p>My main concern is how the b+ would look leading up to me receiving my AA from this college. All my college grades up until this point are A’s and one A- for 5 other classes. I never have to take this teacher again, but i have another year and half at this school. Are there any severe negative results if i took action and went above the teachers head? (ie grant loss…)</p>

<p>I’m not generally a believer in arguing over grades, but this is one of those times when you should. The syllabus describes the grading process, the numbers are all correct and yet your final grade is not the grade you earned according to the rules.
Since you have already attempted to review the issue with the teacher, it’s time to take the matter up with the department chair.</p>

<p>hey easy enough sleep with the teacher</p>

<p>The fact that your suggestion is rather counter productive for someone with an education first mindset.
I don’t think a married guy would generally accept the advances of another guy…<br>
A grade I could buy myself into, is no grade worth having.</p>
