<p>Sophmore and I have always been a straight "a" student, but my dog that lived with me for sixteen years died, devastating me, i am getting "b's" which i have never had before.should i ask my teachers for extra credits because i need a's. how could i ask them? is it right? thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Definately ask them. You can email them and ask about how you can bring up your grades to A's. Thats what I do and usually they give me extra credit.</p>
<p>Don't even talk to me about Bs...I have a C in AP Enviro. I thought that was supposed to be a joke. Even more of a joke than AP Econ...and I have an A (99.167) in AP Econ.</p>
<p>Ask them-all they can say is no, and then at least you will know you tried. Most teachers are fairly understanding of life's ups and downs and will work with you.</p>
