In my AP Biology class I had a D because I forgot to turn my Lab Book in (though it wasn't late) I had forgotten to put in there a 125 point project.
So... I did the project in a single night, and afraid my teacher wouldn't accept it I filled in some marks behind his back. Unfortunately, I thought the 125-pt. project was a 150-pt. project and marked 135.
Anyways, he said we needed to talk and I fessed up, having felt terrible for the week and a half preceeding. Didn't argue my case whatsoever, but I got the same message I've gotten since I was in 5th grade.
"You've got so much potential but something is keeping you from reaching it. You've need to do a soul search or whatever you Christians do and get that out of your way."
Fortunately, by the grace of God I only have a 2-day suspension and I got 0's on the 3 assignments. That's the bad news, good news is it could've been 5-day suspension, fail the class, and call the AP place and get my test pulled and not-graded.
I am retaking the class and I'm going to try and do it right next year. Please pray for some peace of mind in this matter and some easy punishment and no lecture from my parents. I've been through enough punishment in my own head.
