Should I go for a B or stay with C?

<p>Okay so this is the situation. I emailed my teacher awhile back ago about bringing up my grade and this is what he said

So I finished the review stuff and I did really good on the FRQs and took the AP today. So I checked my grade and it went up from a 64 to a 72 because he put in my semester test grade (based on the FRQs from review session I got a 95 :) ).</p>

<p>So should I go for the makeup quizzes or just stay where I am?</p>

<p>always aim for the best.</p>

3

<p>^But it might be pointless…like how could I bring it up to a B from a really low C?</p>

4

<p>Go for the makeup quizes. Do some extre-cred.
Even 1 point better is better than what you may have now.</p>

<p>Trying hard is the purpose, not the end result (even though we do like it )</p>

5

<p>You have make ups and retakes in an AP class?D:
My teacher never gives retake because it is OUR responsibility to keep up with work.</p>

6

<p>The end does not justify the means. Rather, the means justify the ends.</p>

<p>Go for it, if you fall short you’ll still benefit from it.</p>

<p>@FallenAngel9 lol that is my favorite quote and I use it to my life (the original one) “The end justifies the means”</p>

<p>i say go for the B! it might be easier than you think…</p>

9

<p>Aim for a B or at least a B-. You’re not that far away.</p>

<p>@nathanielZhu I am whole 8points away! That’s a lot to me</p>

<p>Here’s a question… What will go on your report card? A 72, C-, or a C? If it’s th2 72 or the C-, you should work your hardest to get it higher. A 75 looks better than 72 and a C looks better than a C-.</p>

<p>If your teacher is willing to work with you, I’d say go for the B. I still kick myself for the C+ that I got in sophomore English. It kept me off of Honor Roll, and my teacher allowed us to rewrite our essays. I just didn’t try hard enough. If I had, I would have had a B or B- and made Honor Roll that year. >_<</p>

<p>@AUGirl it will just be a C if it is 70-79 no + or -</p>

13

<p>You’re on CC. Everyone’s going to tell you to try to get a B.</p>

<p>I personally wouldn’t care enough. But I don’t try hard unless there’s definitely going to be some benefit from it, lol. Why would you do all that work if you’re getting a C no matter what? But I’m a huge slacker, so whatever lol</p>

<p>^lmao!!! That is my exact logic! So I guess I am going to talk to him and just ask if there is anyway possible I can bring it up to a B…talk about awkward</p>
