SOO close to an A!


Question Posted Wednesday May 28 2008, 6:06 pm

I just got a 93% on my english final.
It brought my grade to a 89.52..which is a B.
ALL my other teachers counts 89.5 and above as an A except this teacher. =[
If I go in tomorrow to tlk to him, is there anything I can say or do to try to convince him to raise it to an A?! maybe do extra work/bring in something?
it will raise my gpa to a 3.5 instead of 3.3 if he raises it!
which helps balance out my gpa since its ALWAYS been a 3.5 throughout high school!
thanks a bunch =D

explain to him your situation. if he doesn't agree then go to your guidance office and tell them. also, no one goes by 89.52, they cut it off at the 10s place which would make it 89.5 and it would raise it to a B.

Why not talk to him. The worst thing that can happen is that he'd say no. And if he does then oh well you tried. And then you can just work extra hard to prove yourself in the class that you diserve the A. Then maybe he will change it. But, If i were you i'd rather get the B+ knowing that i tried to actually get the A then not trying at all. And to me thats the most important part or a grade that you had to try for it.

hope i helped

Wow. An A and Honor Roll all depend on less than half a percent. Okay, thi same thing happened to me. I had a 89.65 and I found out too late, because grades already closed. Now you know, so for the rest of the year, work hard in that class and talk to the teacher about it. Just in case he says no, do extra credit, bring in something, do what ever you can, because you're probably like 5 points of a grade away from having an A and making honor roll. I hope this helped. Good luck!
