huh?


Question Posted Sunday April 17 2005, 5:35 pm

I just got my report card this past friday. It said that my grade point average is 3.95 which is really good. but when i started look at what i got (A A-) it said I had straight A's, A-'s A+'s and I was confused. I get to see my grade a week before they come out, and my science teacher said i was getting a B- then, on the report card it said A+...i don't understand that..can someone explain?

it's possible that your grade could have dropped since you got your report card. ask your teacher why they are different

You shouldn't even worry about it. If they made a mistake that's their problem. Let it be is the best advice I can give you.

Just enjoy it. Maybe your teacher made a mistake when she was putting the grades in the computer, so a B- showed up, but she fixed it and your grade was brought up to an A+.

The only thing that I can think of that can explain this is if you have taken a few tests after you say your grades before your report card came out, then this may have made your grade go up. Or your teachers just told you that you got a B- to make things difficult. My teachers do that all the time.

Well, sometimes teachers can really lose it...so it could've been cuz the teacher was looking at someone else's name or cuz they lost one of your assignments and then they found it. It pretty much could've been anything. If you did extra credit and the teacher forgot to count it, that could be why. I think that you should go and talk to the teacher about it and ask why it went up to an A+. Then you should figure out why. hope i helped.....

mapetiteodette answered Sunday April 17 2005, 9:04 pm:
I believe that you should ask your teacher if the grade is correct, just to make sure. Even though it might hurt your grade, isn't it better knowing that you actually have the grade that you got than not knowing if you actually earned it? If you aren't worried too much that it might be a mistake, then just ignore it. Be proud!

If you had any tests before your report card came out or any projects that you did, that could have brought your grade up alot more. Or, she could have just told you that to throw you off. My teachers do that all the time.

Maybe you got a B- when your teacher told you that but it could be possible that they didn't add the rest of your grades in there. Don't even worry about it, you got an A+ anyways!

I say don't worry about it. You have a 3.95, so why should you worry about the little details? I have a 1.9, so I'm gonna end up getting married or being a prostitute, which are basically the same thing. Just don't worry about the minor details and relax, be thankful for what you have.

Hello Tara

Maybe, your teachers are like mine. If you are like right on the border of getting another grade [ie:: like a 89% or an 80%] they look at how you do in class and stuff. If they think you do well and you really try then they up your grade, to that A or if they think you didn't work hard they down it to the C. Don't be confused though, it's nothing to worry about, a 3.95 GPA is very good! Keep it up!

Love Always,
Lauren

SimplyMe answered Sunday April 17 2005, 6:06 pm:
maybe it was a weighted class... like some advanced classes are weighted so that if in reality you got a B-.. it will rais it to an A-... you might have raised your grade a little bit too.. who knows.. I would talk to your teacher.. it could be off..
