I had a 89 in chem and my teacher wouldn't round up
I was ONE question away on the final from an A
I was almost in tears when I was begging my teacher. ugh, I hate that woman now. sleep.gif

the worst thing is, my lab partner who never tried, fell asleep in class (EVERY single class), and copied labs/hw ended up with a 79.6, which is a B. I was so damn pissed at her because I had actually tried in that class and we ended up with the same grade. asdflkjasdl;kfj sad.gif

whoa that sucks. but i guess you can't really do anything about it. my apush teacher rounded up grades if you had even .1 and if you had a 9 in the units digit, she would round up too. so if you had like a 98.1 you would get a 100 haha.

ahh yeah exactly! and like 89.5 is even closer to an A than a B.....i wanted to fall into tears too. tears.gif

but like. my french AP teacher...i had like 89.1. she rounded up wth. i guess it depends on the teacher.

but like really. what does it hurt a teacher to give u one grade up??? when ur soooo damn close. give us a darn break. its not like they have to limit themselves how many A's, B's...etc. sighz.

Thank god my school system doesnt use letter grading. Just remember, they're teachers. When you graduate college you'll most likely be making more money than them.

it's not unfair at all. im sure you knew that anything less than 90 is a B from the beginning of the semester. the teacher has no obligation to round up, although it really does suck.

i know how you feel. my teacher's reasoning was that "if i give you 1 more point then i will have to give everyone else a point extra." my answer was ok i don't care if other people get 1 point extra as well. i just want that extra point. i swear she hated me because every time i would always end up with a 79. how is it that likely that i can get a 79 everytime. what a poop

If your teacher gives you an 89.5, then other students will say "What about 89.4? ... 89.3..." and it will go down. She is not being unreasonable at all.

My teachers round up like crazy for our last year of highschool. Both my data and bio teacher rounded me up 2 percent. It reallllly sucks though that you're so close to a 90.
