Academic Advise
    #9420440 - 12/12/08 06:51 PM (15 years, 3 months ago)

So I'm in this bullshit Art Appreciation class.  On the last day of class I thought we had nothing to do but watch this dumb video so i signed the attendence sheet and then left class without being seen.  Wouldn't you know it we have a surprise quiz that day, wort like no points at all.  What it did do was make the teacher see that I had signed the sheet but not turned in the quiz. She sent me and e-mail asking if I took the quiz. I asked somebody in the class what's on the quiz, so should i

a) tell her that I did take the quiz and she must have lost it and if she asks i can tell her things that only somebody in class could have known.

or

b) cut my losses and come clean, taking the zero, the absence, and the potential infraction for signing the sheet and then leaving.

i would go with option A myself...seems liek a small lie that will hurt nobody...either that, or go with b, and say you got a text from somebody and it was some emergency and you had to leave.

either way, you will have to lie to get out of it smoothly, or tell the truth, and risk getting in trouble, though i doubt she would report to the dean or anyone.

peace

I would say b) w/a good lie about why you left.  (mom's car broke down and she texted you or something...)

Going with option a) is pushing it IMO.

"Sorry, a few minutes into class I had to leave for personal reasons. May I take the quiz so that my grade isn't compromised, being that it's so close to the end of the semester?"


Professors have heard it all. Lie and you miss your chance at redeeming yourself. She may even excuse you from it, who knows.

Yeah I did that sounded like the most grounded advice thanks to you and anybody who said basically the same thing.  Oh and yeah I realize I misspelled the thread title :P

No problem man. Wise decision, good job. Now good luck on that assignment. Honesty is always the best policy when it comes to academics... you usually just end up shooting yourself in the foot otherwise.

Yeah, I think if I went with option A it would just turn into me taking it way too far and then getting into serious trouble over a stupid little assignment.  I've got too much to worry about anyways...fucking physics final on tuesday :lol:  Which I will RAPE by the way.

Awesome, not too many students are confident going into a physics final. :thumbup:

What are you in again, Mechanics or Electromagnetism?

I'm in mechanics, I'm pretty good at physics it turns out but I'm not sure if I want to major in it, it's too stressful dealing with because the amount of work that goes into it each week fluctuates so much depending on how well I understand the material.  I think I'll try something else for a semester and see which i prefer.

I was hoping that he would go with option a for this very reason.  He would have either pulled it off or it would have made for an entertaining story.
