Dear Dr. S,

Please to be posting my linguistics grade ASAP. You've had a whole week to grade it, mk? I can't stop checking myBama obsessively until you post it...save the university's bandwidth and grade the darned things already!

Grumpily,

    Your Student

It's tomorrow at midnight, and I just know he'll wait until the last minute. I turned in an exam at 9 PM Friday and that was graded by Saturday evening.
He took 2 months to grade our first paper...he's slow as molasses! *grumbles*

I'm not expecting most of my grades until after Christmas, and maybe the first of the year. So I have no sympathy! :-P

I would keel over in the middle of my Christmas dinner from the stress of not knowing! You certainly have *my* sympathies!

With me it's more a coincidence when I see my grades. XD It's like "Oh, they didn't mail me about a re-exam so I guess I passed" and then two weeks later. "I wonder if I got a grade... oh, there it is... B. Not too shabby for never studying." XD

What is this nonsense about re-exams? Is that some kind of socialist coddling of people who fail exams? ;)

Haha, yeah, you can take any one exam up to three times and then you have to apply for a dispensation. :P You used to have to wait until the end of the next semester to re-take it, but now they offer re-exams a few weeks later if you want it.

Don't tell me you have to pay to retake a course to retake the exam, because that would be... plain funny XD

I guess that's a motivator. Or a stress factor. XD

But, you know, since school is free in Denmark, that sort of motivates the system to try and, you know, make us pass it in one go! XD
