<p>I took Math 53 P/NP but ended up getting an A in the class. Grrr...</p>
<p>I know there's no way to change the P/NP option back to the letter grade option, but I was wondering if there was a way to "unhide" the P grade?</p>
<p>For example, would I be able to add an addendum to my official transcript that shows what the actual grade was? Anyone else in this situation?</p>
<p>It doesn’t hurt to petition but… according to the request for exceptional change of class schedule petition from L&S, you need an extenuating circumstance to explain why you did not change it before the P/NP deadline.</p>
<p>And… explicitly stated “8) wishing to improve your gpa” is not an extenuating circumstance.</p>
<p>Still, I would petition anyways, but I thought you had to submit the materials by Dec. 19?</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice Firapira, but since the grades are already up, the petition deadline is probably past. </p>
<p>My question isn’t whether or not I should petition, but if there is a way to “unhide” the P grade. That way, while the grade would show up as a P and would not be factored in my GPA, there would be an addendum that reveals what the actual grade was. Has anyone done something like this before?</p>
<p>not sure if there is anyway to unhide it. I’m guessing it’s not possible.</p>
<p>Does NP count in your GPA slightly?</p>
<p>dang why did you take P/NP? were you not doing well in the beginning or something? because you must know something to get an A :P. did you have neu or lott?</p>
<p>sorry for hijacking the thread … but is there a way to find out my grade if i take a class p/np? I took nutri scie 10 this semester p/np, and all i see on bearfacts is a P. I’m curious about my grade… how do i find out? (apart from adding my marks up and doing all the calculations of course)</p>
<p>^I guess you can ask your GSI/professor…that’s about it as far as I know.</p>
<p>CCnewbie, ask your GSI.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Not at all.</p>
<p>Ask your GSI to write you a thing on official university letterhead that says you got an A. You probably couldn’t get it attached to your transcript, but most grad schools accept addenda about minutae like this.</p>
<p>Why don’t you petition saying that you intend to double major in a field that requires Math 53 as a prereq? Then, if they ask you why you took it P/NP, just tell them you were recently persuaded to pursue the new study. Worth a shot, in my opinion.</p>
