Venting about grading on finals

I read you’ve already reached out. That’s great. My motto is, by not asking you’re guaranteed a no. By asking you have a chance. It has benefited me more than once. I hate profs like this and wish to never be someone like them. Anyway, it seems she’s still difficult so if you are able then it may be worth it to go to her office and beg. Shed a tear or three. Seriously. I had a prof tell me a story about a student who did this. In this story the student missed the deadline for an assignment for a reason I cannot remember. She went to her office and explained. Tears welled up. The prof let her get graded without late marks because she could see that this student was legit. I don’t advocate this behaviour. I am a believer that you strive for perfect so if you miss your mark even slightly then you’re okay. But sometimes it must be done
