<p>I had an asthma attack this morning and missed an exam while getting looked at and treatment at the Student Health Center.</p>
<p>I emailed my professor from my phone while I was still there explaining how I had a virus the past couple days but then had the asthma attack. However she emailed me back saying the syllabus clearly states if you are going to miss an exam you need to let her know with written documentation by 5:00 p.m. the night before in order to be allowed a make up one.</p>
<p>I then explained to her how my virus alone would not have prevented me from going to class, but the asthma attack did which I had no possible way of anticipating beforehand.</p>
<p>I am going to talk to her tomorrow morning and explain how I have suffered from severe asthma my whole life and show her all the documentation and medicine/steroids they prescribed to me (like 5 things).</p>
<p>What else should I say to convince her to let me make up the exam? It seems so unfair because this is an unusual circumstance I had no clue would happen to me by 5:00 p.m. the night before. I haven't missed a class and have gotten good feedback in all the homework so far. I just want to do well in this class. Please help!</p>
