so i'm finishing up my pre-reqs online (starting ns in the fall)
i'm taking sociology online, and tonight was my open book finial.
the finial was 50 questions divided into 2 parts 25 questions each. i printed both sections to work on before i submitted the answers online.
why oh why did i submit my part one answers to the part two answer key section???!!!! :smackingf i resubmitted my answers but i can't delete the first answer key. i emailed my professor on my mistake but i have no idea if he will accept my second submission. it could very well mean a big fat f on my finial. how could i have been sooooo stupid. i double checked all my answers before i hit the submit button and never double checked to see if the section number printed on my hard copy matched the section number on my online answer key.
i'm not 100% sure of what my finial grade will be, my assignments were multiple choice and short answer sections. the lowest grade i got was 88, everything was between 92-100. i missed one discussion part cause i was in spain. each discussion part is worth 10 points, i had 6 sections and got a 9 on one part, everything else i got the full 10 points.
anyway, i might have just screwed up my grade. im so upset at myself.
Ive been trying to jump on to give everyone an update.
All is well, my professor responded to my email bright and early this morning. He totally understood and deleted my first post that i messed up. I got a 96 on both sections so what a relief.
Thanks everyone for your input and support
as always I appreciate it
don't know what I would do without this forum
I'm so glad it all worked out!!! I know how stressful finals can be... we all start to do things that aren't quite right due to the stress..
My physiology final was in May... 1 day after I had to order the tickets for my daughters dance recital. She was in the 2nd half of 3 recitals but I ended up buying all 1st half tickets for my family. It was like 11 tickets at 7 dollars each.. and I bought the show that she wasn't even in....
When I figured it out in June (at the recital)... I freaked out. Luckily I caught it in time and they let me exchange the tix... but I really screwed that one up.
Anyway... just wanted to say... we all can relate. I'm glad your professor was so understanding! Great job BTW!!!
oh yes me too I made terrible mistake in the class I'm currently taken, I missed my first quiz which is 50 points, had to work to pay the bills, now my instructor said all i can hope for is B, well thank good is not nursing class:uhoh21: Congratulation on A!
i too, am so glad things worked out for you!! here's hoping you get an "a". i think that anyone could have done the same thing. it really does sound just like something i might have done myself. don't be too hard on yourself. you are such a super person. therefore you will make a super fantastic
Glad to hear things worked out for you. Hope you find out that you got an A. Thought you might like to hear about this blooper: A young man who lived down the hall in my dorm was in the honors program and taking a ton of classes since honors program students can carry heavier course loads. Well, during finals he hit the wall. One day when he had more than one final scheduled, nobody could wake him up. His body decided it was going to sleep and sleep he did. He missed his finals that day. Never found out what happened, but assume he was able to work it out since he was an honors student.
I would think that your instructor would surely see your mistake and allow you to fix that boo boo. If he does not, and your grade suffers, then you should appeal through the chain of command in your school. In the final end, all they can do is to deny your appeal, but you possibly could get it rectified by using the school's grievance body. Good luck.
