OH WAIT, 3.5 &gt; 2.0 or 2.0???

OMG IDK WHAT I'M GOING TO DO?!? THE PEOPLE GETTING GIVE ME DEGREES WITH 2.0's ARE COMING IN MASSES. DOES THIS MEAN THAT I WILL STAND OUT LESS IF I HAVE A 4.0?

Don't be bitter cause you work for your 2.0 and no one else does. It's really not hard to succeed over people barely getting by. I'm sorry you feel threatened by them. Personally, I could care less if everyone in the country could get a degree with a 2.0 GPA, because well, I'll do better than that.

citanul is awesome.

people who try to manipulate others (such as OP) are not cool. they should face the consequences of their actions.



anyone making confessions of dodgy activity on a public internet site should not be surprised if other people find out about them.

manipulate? d:to manage or influence skillfully, esp. in an unfair manner.

do you think I have that much influence over my professors? I am just asking for a better grade.

2. cheer's repeated threats of legal action. No wonder his dumb ass is failing out of a middle of the road school. How is anyone's character being defamed by quoting their own statements?

have you even read the Email?

[ QUOTE ]

Dear Prof. Hooper,

It has come to my attention that one of your students taking BIOL 4501 has recieved a D grade in a course where he required a C- to fufill his degree requirement.

Inflamed, this student went to a message board (twoplustwo.com) where he proceeded to rant about his bad 'fate' of failing his requirement by 60 out of 1000 points. In his words, "Even though I got a B on both my lab final and lecture final they [the professor, on behalf of the university] still don't think I deserve the C-. what bitches." He then proceeded to bitch about life and college in general. In my opinion college is easy so I think his position is weak.

I applaud your decision to fail this lackluster, undeserving lowlife.

Sincerely,
Alex Wice

Cheer,

Results?

I am still in school. I went to the dean's office and she determined that I still "deserve" to be in enrolled. Apparently my grades weren't bracketed correctly and I actually have a higher GPA then they thought.

I win.

I mean manipulate in this sense:

A school grade is a rating of how someone performed on their school work.

Trying to have that grade changed on the basis of activity outside of how they performed on their school work is "manipulation."


(OTOH, where special circumstances exist that affected the conduct of the work, they should be taken into account)

cheer, you have no future. just b/c you got out of it this time does not mean you wont fail out. Ive known many people in college that pulled themselves out of 1,2, or even more jams such as this. none of them graduated. you suck, and i feel sorry for your parents.

[thunk]

Cheer sucked out. Big deal. Close this thread already.

cheer,

does this mean that you didn't get a D in the class, or that you didn't get kicked out of school, or both?

I think it was that he got a D but not kicked out. In that case, people can't say that he did not get what he deserved. But I am also curious.

[citanul]

If he got the D and did not get kicked out, then he likely got exactly what he deserved. My wanting him to get the D had nothing to do with a desire for him to get kicked out of school, only to have him get the grade he deserved. If getting a D did not, by his dean's realization, mean he had to get kicked out of school, that's fine.
