@shawnspencer 3) People asking for grade changes because they think they “deserved” a higher grade than they got

god, this!

i remember this dude who had gotten straight As his first semester (at a CCC, mind you) and he hadn’t even taken transfer level courses yet. these were like basic, remedial level and non-transferable electives. and then the next semester he was taking a transfer level science class and was doing badly and blamed everybody but himself. it was ridiculous. he somehow thought that his A’s in easy classes last semester made him an “A student” who couldn’t possibly get anything else. such disgusting attitude. these people are too egotistical to even realize it’s a wake up call.

i wonder if this is common at universities as well or if it’s just a CC problem. i imagine all of the AP 4.5 students that went straight to 4 years might get a wake up call as well but at least they’ve probably confronted what it means to struggle/work hard when they were in said AP classes.
